Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 27 - 28.5, mean 27.6 °C (based on 82 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00617 (0.00401 - 0.00948), b=3.07 (2.94 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.48 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 4.8 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (40 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 138 [75, 277] mg/100g; Iron = 1.04 [0.67, 1.68] mg/100g; Protein = 16.8 [15.3, 18.6] %; Omega3 = 0.153 [0.087, 0.259] g/100g; Selenium = 48.8 [27.1, 95.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 19.1 [9.3, 40.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.45 [1.02, 2.16] mg/100g (wet weight);
