Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 28.1 - 29.1, mean 28.5 °C (based on 20 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00528 - 0.02384), b=3.10 (2.92 - 3.28), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.49 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 272 [137, 741] mg/100g; Iron = 1.65 [0.79, 3.08] mg/100g; Protein = 18.8 [17.4, 20.1] %; Omega3 = 0.186 [0.078, 0.461] g/100g; Selenium = 42.6 [14.8, 108.9] μg/100g; VitaminA = 78.6 [19.7, 309.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.41 [1.94, 5.41] mg/100g (wet weight);
