Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): -1.4 - 1.4, mean 0.5 °C (based on 444 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00631 (0.00359 - 0.01109), b=3.22 (3.06 - 3.38), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref.
