Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (संदर्भ 123201): 3.3 - 5.9, mean 4 °C (based on 197 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (संदर्भ 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00347 (0.00163 - 0.00737), b=3.19 (3.00 - 3.38), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (संदर्भ 69278):  3.9   ±0.25 se; based on food items.
लौटाव (संदर्भ 120179):  बहुत नीचे, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी समय अवलागत 14 महीने। (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
