Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 16.3 - 21.6, mean 17.9 °C (based on 137 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.7500   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.4 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 = 81.7 [35.4, 185.0] mg/100g; Iron = 0.853 [0.437, 1.828] mg/100g; Protein = 19.1 [16.2, 21.4] %; Omega3 = 0.246 [0.129, 0.476] g/100g; Selenium = 8.57 [3.78, 19.80] μg/100g; VitaminA = 116 [31, 549] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.42 [0.83, 2.52] mg/100g (wet weight);
