Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 26.3 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 1905 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00490 (0.00187 - 0.01281), b=3.11 (2.88 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 165 [84, 264] mg/100g; Iron = 0.844 [0.502, 1.420] mg/100g; Protein = 18.3 [17.2, 19.3] %; Omega3 = 0.107 [0.060, 0.188] g/100g; Selenium = 25.4 [11.8, 53.8] μg/100g; VitaminA = 141 [45, 434] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.15 [1.42, 3.06] mg/100g (wet weight);
