Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00912 (0.00483 - 0.01723), b=3.10 (2.95 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.3 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
