Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00708 (0.00333 - 0.01504), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.3 ±0.3 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).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 166 [73, 333] mg/100g; Iron = 0.848 [0.418, 1.655] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [15.8, 19.6] %; Omega3 = 0.103 [0.044, 0.202] g/100g; Selenium = 26.4 [11.6, 61.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 142 [37, 513] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.26 [1.45, 3.41] mg/100g (wet weight);
