Estimates based on models

Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00456 - 0.02295), b=3.13 (2.95 - 3.31), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nível Trófico (Ref. 69278): 2.8 ±0.27 se; based on food items.

Resiliência (Ref. 120179): Elevada, tempo mínimo de duplicação da população menor que 15 meses (tm<1; multiple spawning per year; Fec=100).

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

Categoria de preço (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
