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=0.02138 (0.01011 - 0.04522), b=2.97 (2.80 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.5 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 (21 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 121 [66, 255] mg/100g ; Iron = 0.722 [0.358, 1.318] mg/100g ; Protein = 18.4 [17.3, 19.6] % ; Omega3 = 0.195 [0.092, 0.419] g/100g ; Selenium = 43 [21, 95] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 24.6 [6.9, 79.9] μg/100g ; Zinc = 1.17 [0.68, 1.86] mg/100g (wet weight);
