Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 8.4 - 17.3, mean 10.3 °C (based on 118 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01660 (0.00714 - 0.03859), b=3.05 (2.85 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.6 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 11.1 [4.1, 34.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.221 [0.090, 0.594] mg/100g; Protein = 17.2 [15.7, 18.9] %; Omega3 = 0.263 [0.093, 0.775] g/100g; Selenium = 9.87 [3.43, 29.60] μg/100g; VitaminA = 70.4 [9.2, 509.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.477 [0.262, 0.796] mg/100g (wet weight);
