Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 17.7 - 25.2, mean 22.1 °C (based on 19 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00653 - 0.01928), b=3.04 (2.90 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 4.5-14 años (K=0.13; tmax=25).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (62 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 33.9 [14.0, 78.6] mg/100g; Iron = 0.783 [0.376, 1.829] mg/100g; Protein = 18.5 [16.8, 20.0] %; Omega3 = 0.292 [0.160, 0.530] g/100g; Selenium = 38.1 [17.9, 90.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 19.9 [4.7, 83.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.705 [0.451, 1.142] mg/100g (wet weight);
