Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01549 (0.00926 - 0.02591), b=2.97 (2.83 - 3.11), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 2.8 ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Medio, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 1.4-4.4 años (Fec=500-600 eggs (Ref. 1672)).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (23 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 327 [77, 1,007] mg/100g; Iron = 2.69 [0.99, 6.70] mg/100g; Protein = 16.2 [14.9, 17.5] %; Omega3 = 0.259 [0.090, 0.743] g/100g; Selenium = 36.4 [15.2, 83.9] μg/100g; VitaminA = 26.7 [10.2, 68.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.04 [1.34, 3.09] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
