Information
Ecological parameter: temperature range preference
Parameter group: habitat related parameters
Explanation:
The parameter provides information on a taxon's preference for a specific range of water temperature (cold stenotherm, warm stenotherm, eurytherm).
Classification system: single category assignment system
