Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 5.6 - 20.9, mean 17.4 °C (based on 173 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5078   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00980 - 0.02036), b=3.00 (2.90 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.1   ±0.70 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (tm=6.2; Fec=310,000 (batch fecundity)). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Very high vulnerability (90 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Low .
