Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 5.2 - 9, mean 6.9 °C (based on 64 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00282 (0.00118 - 0.00673), b=3.10 (2.89 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  3.7   ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179):  laag, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd 4,5-14 jaar (Deepwater species with few large eggs.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High vulnerability (58 of 100).
