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=0.00955 (0.00451 - 0.02020), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 55.8 [25.6, 120.9] mg/100g; Iron = 0.73 [0.39, 1.49] mg/100g; Protein = 19.2 [16.3, 21.4] %; Omega3 = 0.238 [0.133, 0.427] g/100g; Selenium = 10.9 [5.2, 22.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 87.1 [25.3, 383.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.16 [0.72, 2.02] mg/100g (wet weight);
