Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 27.6 - 29, mean 28.4 °C (based on 60 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5078   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00490 (0.00187 - 0.01281), b=3.11 (2.88 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.7   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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 = 109 [58, 175] mg/100g; Iron = 0.68 [0.42, 1.11] mg/100g; Protein = 18.5 [17.5, 19.5] %; Omega3 = 0.105 [0.062, 0.178] g/100g; Selenium = 26.9 [13.3, 53.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 134 [46, 372] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.65 [1.12, 2.30] mg/100g (wet weight);
