Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.7 - 29, mean 28.1 °C (based on 736 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02344 (0.01118 - 0.04914), b=2.95 (2.78 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 2.0 ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (42 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 43.8 [21.0, 162.8] mg/100g; Iron = 0.677 [0.245, 1.795] mg/100g; Protein = 18.6 [17.4, 19.7] %; Omega3 = 0.126 [0.057, 0.282] g/100g; Selenium = 18.2 [6.2, 60.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 57.2 [17.5, 184.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.04 [0.94, 5.63] mg/100g (wet weight);
