Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 23.4 - 28.6, mean 27.4 °C (based on 798 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01738 (0.01122 - 0.02691), b=2.93 (2.81 - 3.05), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.0   ±0.67 se; based on food items. Generation time: 6.9 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.16). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Moderate to high vulnerability (52 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Medium . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 26.9 [9.2, 55.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.464 [0.236, 0.847] mg/100g; Protein = 19.7 [17.8, 21.5] %; Omega3 = 0.153 [0.083, 0.260] g/100g; Selenium = 37.1 [20.9, 62.8] μg/100g; VitaminA = 74.1 [25.5, 215.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.1 [0.8, 1.6] mg/100g (wet weight);
