Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.3 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 1539 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00091 (0.00039 - 0.00215), b=2.99 (2.79 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High to very high vulnerability (69 of 100).

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 29.2 [15.7, 51.4] mg/100g; Iron = 0.45 [0.27, 0.97] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [16.7, 21.5] %; Omega3 = 0.0975 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 43.4 [24.7, 87.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 45.2 [13.8, 130.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.833 [0.601, 1.167] mg/100g (wet weight);
