Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 24.7 - 29.1, mean 27.5 °C (based on 954 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00907 - 0.02200), b=3.01 (2.89 - 3.13), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 11.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2
growth studies.
