Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 3 - 12.3, mean 7.1 °C (based on 2015 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.41 se; based on food items.
