Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.8 - 29.3, mean 28.5 °C (based on 3010 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00076 (0.00029 - 0.00197), b=3.06 (2.83 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
69278): 4.0 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
