Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 21.9 - 28.3, mean 26.8 °C (based on 847 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02138 (0.01571 - 0.02910), b=2.90 (2.82 - 2.98), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref.
93245).
Niveau trophique (Ref.
69278): 3.8 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 1.6 (1.2 - 1.8) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 12
growth studies.
Résilience (Ref.
