Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 2.4 - 10.4, mean 6.8 (based on 1057 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.03467 (0.02139 - 0.05620), b=2.96 (2.82 - 3.10), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (Assuming tmax>3).

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