Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 21.4 - 28.7, mean 26.4 °C (based on 52 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00458 - 0.01509), b=3.00 (2.85 - 3.15), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for species & Genus-BS (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.41 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100) .
Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): (0 of 100) .
