Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Referencia 123201): 14.4 - 23, mean 17.6 °C (based on 162 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Referencia 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02570 (0.01199 - 0.05511), b=2.89 (2.71 - 3.07), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Referencia 69278): 3.4 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Generation time: 4.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.

Resiliencia (Referencia 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (K=0.25-0.33).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (37 of 100). 🛈

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.
