Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.

50 = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01905 (0.00827 - 0.04391), b=3.01 (2.82 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
