Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00457 (0.00190 - 0.01097), b=3.13 (2.92 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Moderate vulnerability (36 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 23.5 [10.8, 49.9] mg/100g; Iron = 0.514 [0.296, 0.837] mg/100g; Protein = 18.4 [17.1, 19.6] %; Omega3 = 2.17 [0.71, 7.67] g/100g; Selenium = 19.8 [7.8, 51.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 27.6 [9.3, 80.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.654 [0.462, 0.931] mg/100g (wet weight);
