Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 23.3 - 28.1, mean 27.2 (based on 814 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00028 (0.00012 - 0.00065), b=3.21 (3.03 - 3.39), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (tmax=3).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (12 of 100).
