Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00613 - 0.03255), b=2.96 (2.77 - 3.15), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
69278): 3.7 ±0.58 se; based on food items.
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
120179): Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (14 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 341 [216, 660] mg/100g ; Iron = 1.84 [1.14, 2.91] mg/100g ; Protein = 17.3 [15.6, 19.2] % ; Omega3 = 0.269 [0.107, 0.726] g/100g ; Selenium = 51 [17, 160] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 66 [27, 152] μg/100g ; Zinc = 2 [1, 3] mg/100g (wet weight); based on
nutrient studies.
