Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 27.1 - 29.2, mean 28.5 °C (based on 988 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00575 (0.00280 - 0.01185), b=3.12 (2.95 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.6 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 182 [99, 348] mg/100g; Iron = 1.03 [0.55, 1.80] mg/100g; Protein = 18.6 [17.4, 19.7] %; Omega3 = 0.168 [0.081, 0.313] g/100g; Selenium = 57.8 [29.8, 119.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 21.7 [8.3, 62.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.4 [1.0, 2.0] mg/100g (wet weight);
