Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01470 (-0.13719 - 0.16660), b=3.04 (2.96 - 3.13), based on LWR estimates for species & family-BS (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278):  3.6   ±0.50 se; Based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 69278):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.3; assuming tm>=2).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (28 of 100) .
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Very high.
