Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 28.4 - 29.3, mean 28.9 °C (based on 1286 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01380 (0.00650 - 0.02933), b=3.03 (2.85 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (25 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 38.3 [15.9, 126.6] mg/100g; Iron = 0.637 [0.254, 1.580] mg/100g; Protein = 18.6 [16.5, 20.3] %; Omega3 = 0.0926 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 33.5 [11.5, 99.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 51.1 [15.8, 166.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.3 [1.0, 4.1] mg/100g (wet weight);
