Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00444 - 0.02153), b=3.04 (2.85 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.6 ±0.50 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 124 [63, 322] mg/100g; Iron = 0.576 [0.267, 1.228] mg/100g; Protein = 17.9 [15.9, 19.6] %; Omega3 = 0.891 [0.367, 1.915] g/100g; Selenium = 11.8 [5.2, 30.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 25.5 [5.9, 106.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.94 [0.60, 1.47] mg/100g (wet weight);
