Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 8.7 - 19, mean 12.7 (based on 823 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5010 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00871 (0.00387 - 0.01962), b=3.07 (2.86 - 3.28), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.6 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Assuming tmax>4).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (11 of 100).
