Etymology: Pyramodon: Greek, pyramis = pyramid + Greek, odous = teeth (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: The etymology says that the binomial is in honour of “…two mature women who supported and endured this project.” It is not stated, but we presume that the two women, both named Linda, are the authors’ partners. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 10.9 - 12.9, mean 11.7 °C (based on 12 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100).
