Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 4.7 - 9.7, mean 6.3 °C (based on 207 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5001 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00589 (0.00282 - 0.01229), b=3.23 (3.05 - 3.41), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.8 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming fec < 10,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (22 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 153 [65, 603] mg/100g; Iron = 0.495 [0.218, 1.226] mg/100g; Protein = 16.3 [14.6, 17.9] %; Omega3 = 1.01 [0.32, 3.35] g/100g; Selenium = 5.3 [1.4, 18.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 502 [77, 3,436] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.89 [0.99, 3.47] mg/100g (wet weight);
