Estimates of some properties based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD50 = 0.5044 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00646 (0.00324 - 0.01288), b=3.15 (2.97 - 3.33), based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.6 se; Based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 69278): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (43 of 100) .
