Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82805): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00912 (0.00553 - 0.01505), b=3.06 (2.93 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for species & Genus-BS (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.3 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100) .
Climate Vulnerability (Ref.
125649): (0 of 100) .
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 464 [161, 1,419] mg/100g ; Iron = 1.46 [0.62, 3.98] mg/100g ; Protein = 15.6 [13.6, 17.7] % ; Omega3 = 0.434 [0.182, 1.046] g/100g ; Selenium = 48 [19, 110] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 62.8 [22.2, 179.1] μg/100g ; Zinc = 1.83 [0.90, 4.37] mg/100g (wet weight); based on
