Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 8.6 - 15.2, mean 11.7 °C (based on 34 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00214 (0.00109 - 0.00421), b=3.20 (3.03 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.8 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref.
