Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Occur mainly in marine coastal waters. Also found in inlet waters and estuaries of rivers (Ref. 559). Juveniles associate with drifting seaweed (Ref. 12114, 12115). Oviparous, eggs are pelagic and non-adhesive (Ref. 205).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 19.4 - 29.2, mean 26.1 °C (based on 388 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5156   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01047 (0.00671 - 0.01634), b=2.92 (2.80 - 3.04), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.5   ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 2.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (25 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Medium.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 304 [119, 712] mg/100g; Iron = 1.83 [0.81, 3.76] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [16.5, 19.9] %; Omega3 = 0.382 [0.181, 0.840] g/100g; Selenium = 33.3 [14.9, 78.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 25.5 [6.9, 92.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.56 [1.69, 3.92] mg/100g (wet weight);
