Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 22.9 - 27, mean 24.2 °C (based on 124 cells).

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00257 (0.00122 - 0.00544), b=3.17 (2.99 - 3.35), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Otophidium omostigma (Jordan & Gilbert, 1882)
