Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 16.6 - 26, mean 20.8 °C (based on 21 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00525 (0.00223 - 0.01237), b=3.13 (2.92 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.6 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 vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 288 [142, 626] mg/100g; Iron = 1.36 [0.68, 2.65] mg/100g; Protein = 16.9 [15.2, 18.6] %; Omega3 = 0.278 [0.113, 0.823] g/100g; Selenium = 62.2 [28.2, 163.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 33.9 [11.3, 92.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.47 [1.01, 2.19] mg/100g (wet weight);
