Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 15.2 - 19.6, mean 16.7 °C (based on 17 cells).
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
