Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00244 - 0.04107), b=3.04 (2.81 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±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 (24 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 29.9 [12.9, 81.9] mg/100g; Iron = 0.431 [0.178, 1.026] mg/100g; Protein = 15.4 [13.2, 17.4] %; Omega3 = 0.449 [0.173, 1.244] g/100g; Selenium = 24.8 [8.1, 69.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 31.2 [6.1, 176.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.572 [0.327, 0.948] mg/100g (wet weight);
