Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

High-oceanic, found between 225-650 m during the day and between 40-275 m at night exhibiting size stratification with depth and with adult females below 450 m (Ref. 4479). Depth range from 300-777 m in the eastern Ionian Sea (Ref. 56504). Large juveniles, sub-adults and adults from the Mediterranean are known to be migratory (Ref. 4775).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 10.2 - 16.5, mean 14.1 °C (based on 226 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00579 - 0.01650), b=3.03 (2.89 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 115 [35, 354] mg/100g; Iron = 0.658 [0.245, 2.037] mg/100g; Protein = 17 [15, 19] %; Omega3 = 0.741 [0.235, 2.112] g/100g; Selenium = 10.7 [3.4, 31.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 96.9 [12.9, 766.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.911 [0.460, 1.975] mg/100g (wet weight);
