Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 19.3 - 27.9, mean 24.8 °C (based on 26 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (42 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High to very high vulnerability (75 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 31.9 [13.7, 63.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.398 [0.166, 0.859] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [16.3, 19.3] %; Omega3 = 0.189 [0.084, 0.403] g/100g; Selenium = 11.7 [4.6, 31.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 6.18 [1.03, 36.14] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.277 [0.179, 0.438] mg/100g (wet weight);
