Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 3.3 - 5.9, mean 4 °C (based on 197 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00347 (0.00164 - 0.00733), b=3.19 (3.00 - 3.38), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.9 ±0.25 se; based on food items.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref.
120179): sehr niedrig, Verdopplung der Population dauert mehr als 14 Jahre. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 12.5 [6.6, 34.8] mg/100g; Iron = 0.333 [0.135, 0.854] mg/100g; Protein = 11.8 [9.9, 15.0] %; Omega3 = 0.366 [0.143, 1.041] g/100g; Selenium = 33.7 [14.0, 88.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 7.28 [1.53, 35.33] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.328 [0.209, 0.546] mg/100g (wet weight); based on
nutrient studies.
