Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 13.9 - 22.3, mean 20.3 °C (based on 31 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00871 - 0.01148), b=3.10 (3.06 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.5   ±0.41 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming tm=2-4). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (20 of 100). Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649 ):  Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   High . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 106 [59, 224] mg/100g; Iron = 0.511 [0.202, 1.904] mg/100g; Protein = 19.3 [18.3, 20.2] %; Omega3 = 0.737 [0.445, 1.224] g/100g; Selenium = 15.4 [7.0, 35.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 15.8 [5.2, 57.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.253 [0.164, 0.577] mg/100g (wet weight);
