Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5002 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00467 - 0.02458), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

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

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (11 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 88.6 [57.7, 146.7] mg/100g; Iron = 0.901 [0.572, 1.347] mg/100g; Protein = 19 [18, 20] %; Omega3 = 0.14 [0.09, 0.21] g/100g; Selenium = 26.1 [15.9, 46.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 117 [47, 301] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.41 [1.00, 1.92] mg/100g (wet weight);
