Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.3 - 3.6, mean 2.8 °C (based on 173 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7510 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 4,5-14 år (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High to very high vulnerability (72 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 21.4 [6.7, 47.6] mg/100g; Iron = 0.279 [0.113, 0.761] mg/100g; Protein = 19.3 [16.4, 22.8] %; Omega3 = 0.111 [0.040, 0.285] g/100g; Selenium = 13.8 [4.9, 44.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 14.2 [1.7, 108.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.417 [0.227, 0.833] mg/100g (wet weight);
