Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 2.1 - 11.1, mean 6.1 °C (based on 371 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5020 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.

Niveau trophique (Ref.
69278): 4.5 ±0.80 se; based on food items.
Résilience (Ref.
120179): Très faible, temps minimum de doublement de population supérieur à 14 ans (Assuming semelparity and tm>10).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
