Biologie     Fachlexikon (Englisch) (z.B. epibenthic)

Host specific on manta rays, but occasionally attaches to sharks. Often occurs inside gill chamber and mouth of host. Also attaches itself to black marlin, Makaira indica, of the Indo-Pacific Region (Ref. 7251). Rarely free-swimming (Ref. 10791). Used in Chinese medicine (Ref. 12166).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 16.7 - 28.2, mean 25.7 °C (based on 1829 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5352   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00257 (0.00110 - 0.00600), b=3.17 (2.96 - 3.38), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179):  mittel, Verdopplung der Population dauert 1,4 - 4,4 Jahre. (Assuming Fec < 10,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100). 🛈
