Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 4.1 - 13.9, mean 8.5 (based on 878 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00405 - 0.02356), b=3.06 (2.85 - 3.27), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.20 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (tmax=1).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
