Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 13.4 - 16.6, mean 15.4 °C (based on 19 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00048 (0.00025 - 0.00091), b=3.28 (3.12 - 3.44), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (25 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.
