Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 2 - 4.6, mean 3.9 °C (based on 75 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
