This species supposedly described from Indonesia ("Java" as indicated in the name) is doubtful (Ref. 78585:157; Ref: 88079:30,37). Please, send references or more studies are needed.

Estimates of some properties based on empirical models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82805): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01693 (-0.20493 - 0.23879), b=2.84 (2.72 - 2.96), based on LWR estimates for this family-BS (Ref.
93245).
Trophic Level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; Based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
69278): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Moderate vulnerability (37 of 100) .
