Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01445 (0.00779 - 0.02682), b=3.13 (2.97 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.44 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Unknown.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 198 [109, 385] mg/100g; Iron = 1.67 [0.93, 3.21] mg/100g; Protein = 18.3 [16.9, 19.7] %; Omega3 = 0.548 [0.199, 1.553] g/100g; Selenium = 61.9 [24.4, 166.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 67.8 [16.5, 199.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.49 [1.66, 3.77] mg/100g (wet weight);
