Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00490 (0.00323 - 0.00742), b=3.09 (2.97 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.4 ±0.45 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 2.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Moderate vulnerability (42 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 123 [47, 262] mg/100g; Iron = 1.75 [0.91, 3.55] mg/100g; Protein = 16.9 [15.6, 18.2] %; Omega3 = 0.296 [0.122, 0.707] g/100g; Selenium = 92 [41, 225] μg/100g; VitaminA = 31.3 [11.3, 86.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.3 [0.9, 1.9] mg/100g (wet weight);
