Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23.7 - 28.6, mean 27.4 °C (based on 763 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.6250   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02512 (0.02012 - 0.03136), b=2.85 (2.79 - 2.91), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.2   ±0.53 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 6.5 ( 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 (K = 0.17).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High vulnerability (62 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Medium.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 23.9 [10.4, 45.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.587 [0.317, 1.205] mg/100g; Protein = 19.7 [18.5, 20.9] %; Omega3 = 0.108 [0.063, 0.203] g/100g; Selenium = 50.4 [25.5, 105.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 31.5 [7.3, 121.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.645 [0.418, 0.981] mg/100g (wet weight);
