Etymology: Aplatophis: Greek, aplatos, apletos = terrible + Greek, ophis = serpent (Ref. 45335); zorro: zorro in reference to the coloration of the pore pattern along the face, reminiscent of the slash mark of the swordsman Zorro (Ref. 43686).
Eponymy: This is not, strictly speaking, an eponym as it is named after a fictitious person: ‘Zorro’ who was a character created (1919) by New York-based pulp writer Johnston McCulley. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.7500   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00091 (0.00039 - 0.00215), b=2.99 (2.79 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  3.9   ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179):  Gemiddeld, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd 1,4-4,4 jaar (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High vulnerability (62 of 100).
