Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 15.5 - 26.6, mean 22.5 °C (based on 765 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.6 se; based on diet studies.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 4.5-14 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 23.7 [12.7, 41.0] mg/100g; Iron = 0.413 [0.244, 0.779] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [16, 22] %; Omega3 = 0.0947 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 45.6 [24.9, 87.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 38.2 [10.8, 124.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.03 [0.73, 1.45] mg/100g (wet weight);
