Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 26.7 - 28.9, mean 27.9 °C (based on 266 cells).
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5020 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02344 (0.01098 - 0.05004), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Resiliência (Ref.
120179): Elevada, tempo mínimo de duplicação da população menor que 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 41.8 [25.9, 70.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.263 [0.142, 0.645] mg/100g; Protein = 18 [17, 19] %; Omega3 = 0.133 [0.085, 0.214] g/100g; Selenium = 19.8 [11.2, 35.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 54.4 [12.5, 216.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.432 [0.317, 1.463] mg/100g (wet weight);
