Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 12.2 - 27.1, mean 19.4 °C (based on 1424 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7510 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.51 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 4,5-14 år (Assuming tmax>10).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High to very high vulnerability (66 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
