Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 26.1 - 26.9, mean 26.7 °C (based on 39 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5078   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00447 (0.00172 - 0.01163), b=3.10 (2.87 - 3.33), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179):  Zeer laag, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd meer dan 14 jaar (Assuming Fec < 10).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
