Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.9 - 28.4, mean 27 °C (based on 96 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00813 (0.00740 - 0.00893), b=3.07 (3.04 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref.
