Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 19.8 - 28.9, mean 24 °C (based on 223 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5005   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00506 - 0.01889), b=3.07 (2.90 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 88.4 [52.5, 147.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.729 [0.436, 1.194] mg/100g; Protein = 19.1 [18.0, 20.1] %; Omega3 = 0.124 [0.077, 0.197] g/100g; Selenium = 18.9 [10.1, 35.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 117 [40, 339] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.75 [1.21, 2.44] mg/100g (wet weight);
