Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00708 (0.00317 - 0.01581), b=3.18 (3.00 - 3.36), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Referencia 69278):  3.5   ±0.50 se; based on food items.
Resiliencia (Referencia 120179):  Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). 🛈
