Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 8.9 - 17.6, mean 12.1 (based on 390 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02455 (0.01018 - 0.05918), b=3.02 (2.81 - 3.23), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nível Trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.6 se; based on diet studies.

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).
