Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
115969): 9.4 - 14.6, mean 10.4 (based on 65 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00912 (0.00410 - 0.02027), b=3.09 (2.89 - 3.29), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
