Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 20.8 - 21.4, mean 21.2 °C (based on 4 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.6250   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00037 (0.00016 - 0.00085), b=3.18 (2.99 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 208 [86, 686] mg/100g; Iron = 1.89 [0.73, 4.05] mg/100g; Protein = 18.4 [16.7, 20.0] %; Omega3 = 0.19 [0.06, 0.61] g/100g; Selenium = 27.1 [6.7, 89.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 30.1 [4.9, 182.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.5 [1.2, 4.5] mg/100g (wet weight);
