Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.8 - 29.1, mean 28 °C (based on 1460 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00646 (0.00292 - 0.01429), b=3.04 (2.84 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.08 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 0.6 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (K>1).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (16 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Cheilopogon nigricans (Bennett, 1840)
