Etymology: Galeus: galeos, a small shark or dogfish according to Aristotle and others.

(See ETYFish).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 7.9 - 13.4, mean 10.9 °C (based on 26 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00355 (0.00173 - 0.00727), b=3.08 (2.90 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Subfamily-BS (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.9 ±0.2 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Fec assumed to be <100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (34 of 100).
