Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5312   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01148 (0.00841 - 0.01567), b=3.03 (2.94 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.1   ±0.41 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 13.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179):  niedrig, Verdopplung der Population dauert 4,5 - 14 Jahre. (tmax=20).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  High to very high vulnerability (70 of 100).
Preiskategorie (Ref. 80766):   Unknown.
