Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 24.3 - 28.7, mean 26.8 °C (based on 168 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00683 - 0.01843), b=3.13 (3.00 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.7   ±0.3 se; based on diet studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (24 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 36.6 [17.9, 82.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.316 [0.158, 0.725] mg/100g; Protein = 17.9 [14.6, 20.9] %; Omega3 = 0.135 [0.076, 0.246] g/100g; Selenium = 53.6 [25.5, 126.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 215 [42, 904] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.531 [0.315, 1.015] mg/100g (wet weight);
