Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.5 - 28, mean 27.2 °C (based on 148 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00708 (0.00332 - 0.01511), b=3.09 (2.91 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Subfamily-BS (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.9 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 439 [178, 1,506] mg/100g ; Iron = 1.75 [0.70, 4.30] mg/100g ; Protein = 17.6 [15.4, 19.5] % ; Omega3 = 0.113 [0.033, 0.367] g/100g ; Selenium = 43.9 [11.2, 156.8] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 79.7 [12.8, 407.9] μg/100g ; Zinc = 6.11 [3.17, 10.52] mg/100g (wet weight);
