Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.4 - 22.3, mean 18.3 °C (based on 126 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5012   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  4.0   ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 9.4 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Very high vulnerability (89 of 100).
