Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00381 - 0.01816), b=2.98 (2.81 - 3.15), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Haut, temps minimum de doublement de population inférieur à 15 mois (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (13 of 100).
