Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00457 (0.00221 - 0.00945), b=3.16 (2.99 - 3.33), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 4.1 ±0.7 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (17 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 725 [258, 3,144] mg/100g; Iron = 1.52 [0.45, 3.95] mg/100g; Protein = 14 [11, 17] %; Omega3 = 0.179 [0.042, 0.711] g/100g; Selenium = 22.5 [4.5, 92.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 342 [47, 2,249] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.57 [1.24, 5.07] mg/100g (wet weight);
