Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.8 - 27.9, mean 27.3 °C (based on 60 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00794 (0.00512 - 0.01231), b=3.07 (2.95 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.40 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 3.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (37 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 93.2 [57.6, 183.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.965 [0.503, 1.639] mg/100g; Protein = 18.3 [16.7, 20.0] %; Omega3 = 0.195 [0.107, 0.317] g/100g; Selenium = 64.8 [36.2, 121.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 10.7 [4.4, 26.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.17 [0.86, 1.67] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
