Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 16.1 - 23.3, mean 22 °C (based on 31 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01479 (0.00671 - 0.03258), b=3.08 (2.89 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 38.4 [15.9, 62.4] mg/100g; Iron = 0.612 [0.348, 1.120] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [17.5, 20.2] %; Omega3 = 0.125 [0.068, 0.232] g/100g; Selenium = 14.1 [6.3, 32.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 26.6 [5.7, 120.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.975 [0.615, 1.592] mg/100g (wet weight);
