Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8.7 - 16.9, mean 11.5 °C (based on 46 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5044 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00447 (0.00370 - 0.00540), b=3.15 (3.10 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 4.5-14 años (tmax=14; k=0.15-0.19).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (56 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.
