Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 27.5 - 29, mean 28.2 °C (based on 35 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00490 (0.00204 - 0.01176), b=3.11 (2.90 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.3 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 = 112 [38, 302] mg/100g; Iron = 0.763 [0.428, 1.536] mg/100g; Protein = 17.9 [14.9, 20.1] %; Omega3 = 0.105 [0.045, 0.248] g/100g; Selenium = 28.3 [9.2, 97.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 171 [46, 751] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.83 [1.21, 5.22] mg/100g (wet weight);
