Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 3.1 - 9.1, mean 6.8 °C (based on 333 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00214 (0.00107 - 0.00428), b=3.18 (3.01 - 3.35), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.9   ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Very Low, minimum population doubling time more than 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (40 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Medium.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 23.9 [14.0, 59.0] mg/100g ; Iron = 0.452 [0.206, 0.899] mg/100g ; Protein = 16.1 [14.0, 18.5] % ; Omega3 = 0.234 [0.113, 0.474] g/100g ; Selenium = 21.2 [8.7, 47.7] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 16.8 [3.4, 77.8] μg/100g ; Zinc = 0.371 [0.239, 0.578] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
