Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 7.8 - 17.5, mean 11.5 (based on 548 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00089 (0.00036 - 0.00223), b=2.98 (2.77 - 3.19), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Τροφικό Επίπεδο (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Ελαστικότητα (Ref. 120179): Χαμηλό, ελάχιστος χρόνος για διπλασιασμό πληθυσμού 4,5 - 14 έτη (Assuming tmax>10).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (53 of 100).
