Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 24.2 - 29.1, mean 28.1 °C (based on 1430 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD50 = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00733 - 0.01718), b=2.91 (2.78 - 3.04), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 8.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (tm=4-5 (F); K=0.14-0.16; Tmax=11; Fec >10,000).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (64 of 100) .
