Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 10 - 21.7, mean 15 °C (based on 269 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00525 (0.00321 - 0.00858), b=3.13 (2.99 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 0.6 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (K=1.83; tm=0.5; tmax=1.20).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
