Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 15.7 - 26.1, mean 18.7 °C (based on 240 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01202 (0.00551 - 0.02625), b=3.05 (2.87 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (24 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 12.5 [5.6, 21.2] mg/100g; Iron = 0.177 [0.097, 0.366] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [16, 21] %; Omega3 = 0.363 [0.205, 0.670] g/100g; Selenium = 7.36 [3.54, 15.74] μg/100g; VitaminA = 63.8 [16.8, 303.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.553 [0.367, 0.960] mg/100g (wet weight);
