Estimates based on models

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00813 (0.00304 - 0.02174), b=2.99 (2.77 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.45 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 3.8 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.

लौटाव (Ref. 120179): माध्यम, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी होने का समय 1.4 - 4.4 वर्ष। (K=0.29).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (38 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 99.6 [54.9, 243.6] mg/100g; Iron = 1.46 [0.71, 2.93] mg/100g; Protein = 17.7 [15.9, 19.5] %; Omega3 = 0.472 [0.192, 1.213] g/100g; Selenium = 90 [31, 211] μg/100g; VitaminA = 22.8 [7.2, 69.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.28 [0.84, 2.02] mg/100g (wet weight);
