Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 14.1 - 24.7, mean 23.8 °C (based on 198 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5156   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00851 (0.00413 - 0.01752), b=3.08 (2.91 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 1.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (K=0.98).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (16 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 147 [78, 328] mg/100g; Iron = 1.55 [0.80, 2.88] mg/100g; Protein = 19.6 [18.5, 20.8] %; Omega3 = 0.407 [0.223, 0.693] g/100g; Selenium = 26.9 [13.5, 55.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 15.6 [5.5, 58.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.981 [0.673, 1.458] mg/100g (wet weight);
