Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00589 (0.00281 - 0.01234), b=3.15 (2.97 - 3.33), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.5 ±0.5 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 (15 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 126 [51, 290] mg/100g; Iron = 1.02 [0.45, 2.24] mg/100g; Protein = 17.7 [15.6, 19.8] %; Omega3 = 0.378 [0.169, 1.051] g/100g; Selenium = 34.1 [15.2, 89.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 21.6 [6.6, 67.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.961 [0.613, 1.579] mg/100g (wet weight);
