Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.2 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 2256 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5078 [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).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 122 [63, 189] mg/100g; Iron = 0.724 [0.428, 1.202] mg/100g; Protein = 18.3 [17.2, 19.4] %; Omega3 = 0.0902 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 24 [11, 49] μg/100g; VitaminA = 138 [45, 416] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.05 [1.38, 2.88] mg/100g (wet weight);
