Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 1.3 - 8.7, mean 5.2 (based on 314 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00912 (0.00457 - 0.01819), b=3.10 (2.93 - 3.27), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±0.67 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (tm=2).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (45 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High vulnerability (62 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.
