Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 24.3 - 28, mean 27 °C (based on 306 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5313   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.04786 (0.01967 - 0.11644), b=2.82 (2.61 - 3.03), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.6   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (20 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 45.3 [19.3, 116.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.617 [0.310, 1.425] mg/100g; Protein = 18.4 [16.2, 20.6] %; Omega3 = 0.117 [0.061, 0.222] g/100g; Selenium = 34.7 [17.6, 72.4] μg/100g; VitaminA = 56.8 [16.7, 198.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.06 [0.71, 1.58] mg/100g (wet weight);
