Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 1.8 - 8.2, mean 3.2 (based on 7820 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00171 - 0.00885), b=2.99 (2.79 - 3.19), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.0 ±0.13 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Mellan, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 1,4-4,4 år (Assuming tm>1; Fec=2,000-10,000).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
