Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 19.7 - 25.4, mean 22.9 °C (based on 8 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01380 (0.00641 - 0.02973), b=3.03 (2.86 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Generation time: 2.9 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resiliens (Ref. 120179):  Mellan, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 1,4-4,4 år (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (35 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   High.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 23.1 [9.2, 75.0] mg/100g; Iron = 0.515 [0.205, 1.297] mg/100g; Protein = 18.5 [16.5, 20.3] %; Omega3 = 0.0918 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 45.5 [14.8, 133.4] μg/100g; VitaminA = 43.7 [13.3, 141.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.91 [0.86, 3.44] mg/100g (wet weight);
