Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5039   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00037 (0.00016 - 0.00085), b=3.18 (2.99 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Τροφικό Επίπεδο (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Ελαστικότητα (Ref. 120179):  Υψηλό, ελάχιστος χρόνος για διπλασιασμό πληθυσμού < 15 μήνες (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 317 [151, 882] mg/100g; Iron = 1.77 [0.76, 3.40] mg/100g; Protein = 17.8 [16.3, 19.3] %; Omega3 = 0.114 [0.045, 0.309] g/100g; Selenium = 44.5 [14.1, 133.9] μg/100g; VitaminA = 52.1 [11.3, 231.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.46 [1.87, 5.70] mg/100g (wet weight);
