Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 3 - 12.3, mean 7.1 °C (based on 2015 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.41 se; based on food items.
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (29 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 32.8 [16.5, 71.2] mg/100g; Iron = 0.573 [0.294, 1.067] mg/100g; Protein = 17.1 [15.9, 18.3] %; Omega3 = 0.52 [0.27, 0.97] g/100g; Selenium = 28 [13, 60] μg/100g; VitaminA = 7.76 [1.87, 31.35] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.499 [0.344, 0.736] mg/100g (wet weight);
