Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 7.8 - 25.5, mean 20.3 °C (based on 10 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01585 (0.00707 - 0.03555), b=2.95 (2.76 - 3.14), 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 = 107 [62, 209] mg/100g; Iron = 0.952 [0.537, 1.831] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [15.1, 20.3] %; Omega3 = 0.196 [0.110, 0.340] g/100g; Selenium = 32.4 [17.0, 64.8] μg/100g; VitaminA = 229 [69, 863] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.79 [1.17, 2.83] mg/100g (wet weight);
