Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.6 - 10.6, mean 6.3 °C (based on 506 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5176   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  3.7   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (23 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 95.7 [47.6, 235.3] mg/100g; Iron = 1.16 [0.61, 2.31] mg/100g; Protein = 16.2 [13.7, 19.4] %; Omega3 = 0.63 [0.29, 1.67] g/100g; Selenium = 32.5 [15.8, 82.6] μg/100g; VitaminA = 18.7 [6.7, 53.8] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.848 [0.588, 1.260] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
