Biologie     Fachlexikon (Englisch) (z.B. epibenthic)

Commonly found in harbors and shallow coastal waters. Move to deeper water in winter. Adults attach their eggs near the base of a sponge to use as a spawning bed (Ref. 34819, 41075). Benthic; feeds on crustaceans, molluscs, sea squirts, squids and fishes (herring, mackerel, smelt, sand lance and silversides (Ref. 5951)) (Ref. 58426).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 0.9 - 12.8, mean 6.7 °C (based on 204 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00692 (0.00457 - 0.01047), b=3.13 (3.01 - 3.25), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.
Generation time: 1.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179):  hoch, Verdopplung der Population dauert weniger als 15 Monate. (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (24 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 161 [29, 508] mg/100g; Iron = 0.393 [0.132, 1.109] mg/100g; Protein = 18.9 [16.1, 21.2] %; Omega3 = 0.674 [0.297, 1.947] g/100g; Selenium = 19.8 [9.4, 48.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 7.85 [2.73, 23.85] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.997 [0.409, 1.918] mg/100g (wet weight);
