Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 25.1 - 29.2, mean 27.3 °C (based on 528 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5664 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00355 (0.00144 - 0.00875), b=3.07 (2.85 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Niveau trophique (Ref.
69278): 4.2 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Résilience (Ref.
120179): Très faible, temps minimum de doublement de population supérieur à 14 ans (Fec is assumed to be <10).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
