Length at first maturity / Size / Peso / Age

Maturity: L_m 22.0, range 18 - ? cm
Max length : 40.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 3722); common length : 30.0 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 3722); peso massimo pubblicato: 1.0 kg (Ref. 4699)

Inhabits shallow coastal waters and common in brackish waters (Ref. 36880), mostly over mud bottoms in mangrove-lined creeks and lagoons (Ref. 3722); often entering a considerable distance into freshwaters (Ref. 36880). Feeds on aquatic insects, crustaceans, micro-bivalves and detritus (Ref. 36880). Marketed fresh; processed into fishmeal (Ref. 3722).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 24.4 - 28, mean 26.9 (based on 270 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01479 (0.01088 - 0.02010), b=3.03 (2.98 - 3.08), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 2.2 ±0.0 se; based on diet studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (K=0.17-0.32).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (34 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Medium.
