Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 9.1 - 18.5, mean 14.4 (based on 37 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00206 - 0.00735), b=3.20 (3.03 - 3.37), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.30 se; based on food items.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (K=0.54 (preliminary estimate); tmax=5).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (24 of 100).
