Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5020 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00653 - 0.01928), b=3.02 (2.87 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±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 to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 179 [88, 359] mg/100g ; Iron = 0.822 [0.410, 1.525] mg/100g ; Protein = 17.4 [15.6, 19.1] % ; Omega3 = 0.249 [0.131, 0.466] g/100g ; Selenium = 55.3 [24.5, 129.5] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 20.6 [7.4, 61.9] μg/100g ; Zinc = 1.05 [0.61, 1.70] mg/100g (wet weight);
