Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
115969): 15.1 - 24.7, mean 18.2 °C (based on 142 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82805): PD
50 = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00891 (0.00283 - 0.02804), b=2.98 (2.73 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Subfamily-BS (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
