Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8 - 21.3, mean 17 °C (based on 86 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01047 (0.00864 - 0.01270), b=3.08 (3.04 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.1   ±0.6 se; based on diet studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.21; Fec=44,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate to high vulnerability (46 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 19.8 [7.7, 62.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.229 [0.095, 0.539] mg/100g; Protein = 18 [17, 19] %; Omega3 = 1.01 [0.42, 2.54] g/100g; Selenium = 30.9 [12.1, 92.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 23.8 [6.9, 82.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.389 [0.205, 0.688] mg/100g (wet weight);
