Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.3 - 27, mean 22.6 °C (based on 285 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01148 (0.00693 - 0.01903), b=3.01 (2.86 - 3.16), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.5 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.

Generation time: 7.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 4.5-14 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Prior r = 0.56, 95% CL = 0.37 - 0.83, Based on 2 data-limited stock assessments.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (55 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Low.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 22.2 [10.8, 46.4] mg/100g; Iron = 0.462 [0.241, 0.856] mg/100g; Protein = 19.9 [16.3, 22.5] %; Omega3 = 0.32 [0.14, 0.78] g/100g; Selenium = 11.5 [4.0, 36.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 16.6 [3.8, 76.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.23 [0.12, 0.75] mg/100g (wet weight);
