Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 20.4 - 28.7, mean 25.9 °C (based on 56 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00532 - 0.01301), b=3.14 (3.01 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.66 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 vulnerability (24 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 141 [55, 257] mg/100g; Iron = 0.989 [0.532, 1.872] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [16.0, 19.5] %; Omega3 = 0.268 [0.159, 0.459] g/100g; Selenium = 51.6 [28.3, 101.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 29.2 [10.2, 96.6] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.07 [0.77, 1.59] mg/100g (wet weight);
