Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.7 - 28.8, mean 27.6 °C (based on 650 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5007   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01349 (0.00559 - 0.03252), b=3.04 (2.84 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.7   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Molto basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione più di 14 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate to high vulnerability (54 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 99.6 [53.9, 168.1] mg/100g; Iron = 1.03 [0.64, 1.68] mg/100g; Protein = 18 [17, 19] %; Omega3 = 0.269 [0.157, 0.480] g/100g; Selenium = 67.1 [36.8, 128.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 15.4 [6.3, 37.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.913 [0.691, 1.254] mg/100g (wet weight);
