Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 1.9 - 4.7, mean 2.8 (based on 3258 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5156   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00071 (0.00031 - 0.00164), b=3.12 (2.92 - 3.32), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.3   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Assuming fecundity > 100).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High to very high vulnerability (67 of 100).
