Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.2 - 2.5, mean 2.3 °C (based on 1550 cells).

Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nível Trófico (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (20 of 100).
