Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 15.2 - 20.5, mean 17.5 (based on 50 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00380 (0.00302 - 0.00478), b=3.07 (3.02 - 3.12), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (K=0.31-0.57; tm=1.5-2).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100).
