Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8.8 - 19.6, mean 13.4 °C (based on 608 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (11 of 100).
