					Estimates based on models				
				
				
				Preferred temperature (Ref. 
123201): 14.7 - 28, mean 18.1 °C (based on 318 cells).
				
				
					
					Phylogenetic diversity index  (Ref. 
82804):  PD
50 = 0.5039   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].					
													Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00956 - 0.04164), b=2.93 (2.76 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 
93245).
					
					Trophic level  (Ref. 
69278):  2.8   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives					
											
				
				
										
						Resilience  (Ref. 
120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).					
											
				
									
					Fishing Vulnerability  (Ref. 
59153):  Low vulnerability (20 of 100).
