Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.7 - 26, mean 23.4 °C (based on 12 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01175 (0.00533 - 0.02588), b=3.09 (2.90 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.5 ±0.7 se; based on diet studies.

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (22 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 150 [66, 357] mg/100g; Iron = 1.34 [0.62, 2.67] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [17.4, 20.5] %; Omega3 = 0.205 [0.090, 0.401] g/100g; Selenium = 37.6 [17.0, 88.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 29 [7, 127] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.88 [0.54, 1.42] mg/100g (wet weight);
