Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): -1.8 - 1.3, mean 0.3 °C (based on 361 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00229 (0.00120 - 0.00437), b=3.24 (3.07 - 3.41), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
