Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 17 - 22, mean 20.5 °C (based on 107 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02089 (0.00803 - 0.05439), b=2.98 (2.75 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Generation time: 3.9 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Résilience (Ref.
