Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 1.9 - 4.7, mean 3.4 (based on 2419 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00071 (0.00036 - 0.00140), b=3.11 (2.93 - 3.29), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.53 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 4,5-14 år (Assuming tmax>10).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (47 of 100).
