Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 25 - 29, mean 28.1 °C (based on 892 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5020   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.03090 (0.01359 - 0.07026), b=2.89 (2.70 - 3.08), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  2.6   ±0.00 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (16 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   High . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 55 [28, 89] mg/100g; Iron = 0.565 [0.347, 0.930] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [16.9, 19.3] %; Omega3 = 0.101 [0.064, 0.160] g/100g; Selenium = 32.3 [17.7, 60.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 70.2 [18.0, 261.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.44 [1.00, 2.04] mg/100g (wet weight);
