Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00851 (0.00495 - 0.01463), b=2.97 (2.83 - 3.11), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.67 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 4,5-14 år (Fec = 448,584).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (52 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 57.3 [22.8, 132.1] mg/100g; Iron = 0.802 [0.370, 1.876] mg/100g; Protein = 17.7 [16.0, 19.2] %; Omega3 = 0.237 [0.119, 0.459] g/100g; Selenium = 101 [45, 235] μg/100g; VitaminA = 39.4 [9.7, 160.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.08 [0.67, 1.76] mg/100g (wet weight);
