Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 5 - 9.8, mean 7.1 °C (based on 517 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.6289   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00100 (0.00062 - 0.00162), b=3.11 (2.97 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278):  3.9   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Résilience (Ref. 120179):  Faible, temps minimum de doublement de population : 4,5 à 14 années (Assuming Fec <100).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).
