Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.9 - 28.4, mean 27 °C (based on 96 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00813 (0.00740 - 0.00893), b=3.07 (3.04 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.9 ±0.62 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 2.1 (1.8 - 2.2) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 10
growth studies.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref.
120179): hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (K=0.5; Fec=112,523).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100).
