Discussion
- The expected clutch size ia based on spawing twice per yr
- Metamorphosis is assumed to affect morphology, not metabolism
- Males are assumed to have the same parameters as females
Facts
- This entry is discussed in JageRava2015; notice, however that this ref fits a model without reserve, with the consequence that some symbols have a different meaning. (Ref: JageRava2015)
- Feeding starts at stage Calyptopsis I (Ref: JageRava2015)
- Length (mm) - wet weight (mg) relationship: Ww = 0.00503 * L^3.283 (Ref: Farb1994)
