Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 23.6 - 29, mean 28 °C (based on 380 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 (0.00690 - 0.03171), b=3.09 (2.91 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.6 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 109 [56, 170] mg/100g; Iron = 0.832 [0.494, 1.383] mg/100g; Protein = 18.7 [17.5, 19.8] %; Omega3 = 0.125 [0.075, 0.202] g/100g; Selenium = 30.9 [16.9, 57.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 59.2 [17.9, 195.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.46 [0.98, 2.10] mg/100g (wet weight);
