Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 2.4 - 4.1, mean 3.4 °C (based on 137 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
