Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 8.6 - 12.9, mean 10.4 °C (based on 15 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.

50 = 0.7510 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
