Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 11.4 - 15.9, mean 14.1 °C (based on 26 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00282 (0.00118 - 0.00673), b=3.10 (2.89 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Assuming Fec <100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (62 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): High.
