Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 9.4 - 14.6, mean 10.4 °C (based on 65 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00912 (0.00410 - 0.02027), b=3.09 (2.89 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.9 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Very Low, minimum population doubling time more than 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100).
Climate Vulnerability (Ref.
125649): Low to moderate vulnerability (28 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 57.3 [19.4, 152.6] mg/100g; Iron = 1.07 [0.46, 2.22] mg/100g; Protein = 17.9 [16.2, 19.6] %; Omega3 = 0.651 [0.284, 1.689] g/100g; Selenium = 48.4 [21.4, 128.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 21.9 [7.2, 70.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.671 [0.376, 1.057] mg/100g (wet weight);
