Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 21.7 - 28.9, mean 26 °C (based on 68 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00618 - 0.01858), b=3.03 (2.88 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (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 = 220 [107, 517] mg/100g; Iron = 1.22 [0.59, 2.33] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [16.2, 19.9] %; Omega3 = 0.18 [0.07, 0.37] g/100g; Selenium = 30.6 [13.5, 67.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 122 [34, 425] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.82 [1.76, 4.31] mg/100g (wet weight);
