am	365	365	(5.859e-05)	d	life span	ADW
Li	1.33	1.33	(0.0001327)	cm	ultimate cephalothorax length for female	ADW

Wwp	0.01	0.009781	(0.02186)	g	wet weight at puberty	MarcRich2008
Wwi	0.082	0.08501	(0.03665)	g	ultimate wet weight	guess

Pseudo-data at T_ref
Data	Generalised animal	Tetragnatha versicolor	Unit	Description
v	0.02	0.02259	cm/d	energy conductance
kap	0.8	0.5569	-	allocation fraction to soma
kap_R	0.95	0.95	-	reproduction efficiency
p_M	18	215.3	J/d.cm^3	vol-spec som maint
k_J	0.002	0.002	1/d	maturity maint rate coefficient
kap_G	0.8	0.8009	-	growth efficiency

Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
Digestgion efficiency turns out to depend on food supply rate, and seems proportional to length
