Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00477 - 0.02194), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref. 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).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 231 [114, 549] mg/100g; Iron = 1.22 [0.60, 2.35] mg/100g; Protein = 18.3 [16.3, 20.0] %; Omega3 = 0.165 [0.069, 0.342] g/100g; Selenium = 25.6 [11.5, 55.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 125 [34, 434] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.9 [1.8, 4.4] mg/100g (wet weight);
