Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 23.4 - 28.5, mean 27.3 °C (based on 836 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00416 - 0.02293), b=3.09 (2.91 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
