Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
115969): 23.1 - 29.1, mean 27.3 (based on 229 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5010 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00050 (0.00025 - 0.00101), b=3.26 (3.10 - 3.42), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 4.0 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
