Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 22.7 - 28, mean 26.1 °C (based on 274 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02344 (0.01389 - 0.03957), b=3.02 (2.87 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.9   ±0.4 se; based on diet studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Fec = 7,800). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 61.8 [27.2, 144.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.822 [0.414, 1.581] mg/100g; Protein = 19.5 [18.2, 20.8] %; Omega3 = 0.218 [0.112, 0.427] g/100g; Selenium = 18.1 [7.6, 38.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 33.4 [7.7, 149.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.867 [0.513, 1.354] mg/100g (wet weight);
