Estimates based on models
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00257 (0.00122 - 0.00544), b=2.97 (2.79 - 3.15), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nível Trófico (Ref.
69278): 3.8 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliência (Ref.
120179): médio(a), tempo mínimo de duplicação da população 1,4 - 4,4 anos (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (30 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 258 [126, 651] mg/100g; Iron = 2.23 [0.95, 4.84] mg/100g; Protein = 16.9 [15.1, 18.7] %; Omega3 = 0.268 [0.105, 0.667] g/100g; Selenium = 27.1 [7.0, 105.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 72.1 [23.9, 221.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.75 [0.91, 3.65] mg/100g (wet weight);
