Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 21.2 - 27.6, mean 24.8 °C (based on 104 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00490 (0.00196 - 0.01224), b=3.12 (2.90 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

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

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 77.1 [37.8, 189.4] mg/100g ; Iron = 0.861 [0.421, 1.834] mg/100g ; Protein = 18.2 [16.2, 20.0] % ; Omega3 = 0.182 [0.088, 0.367] g/100g ; Selenium = 16.4 [6.6, 40.4] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 121 [32, 556] μg/100g ; Zinc = 1.18 [0.67, 1.94] mg/100g (wet weight);
