Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 9.1 - 20.6, mean 14.1 °C (based on 19 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5010   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.03090 (0.01378 - 0.06932), b=2.88 (2.69 - 3.07), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  2.7   ±0.31 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (11 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 60 [30, 94] mg/100g; Iron = 0.585 [0.356, 0.974] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [16.9, 19.3] %; Omega3 = 0.119 [0.074, 0.191] g/100g; Selenium = 37.8 [20.6, 69.9] μg/100g; VitaminA = 74.9 [19.1, 275.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.41 [0.97, 2.02] mg/100g (wet weight);
