Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.7 - 29.2, mean 27.8 °C (based on 1297 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.03631 (0.01554 - 0.08482), b=2.88 (2.69 - 3.07), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 57.6 [24.9, 128.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.725 [0.371, 1.453] mg/100g; Protein = 18.8 [16.5, 21.0] %; Omega3 = 0.125 [0.059, 0.243] g/100g; Selenium = 25 [14, 52] μg/100g; VitaminA = 72.3 [27.5, 190.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.4 [1.0, 2.0] mg/100g (wet weight);
