Estimates of some properties based on empirical models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82805): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00396 (-0.17870 - 0.18662), b=3.15 (3.05 - 3.24), based on LWR estimates for this genus-BS (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.4 se; Based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 69278): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assumed Fec < 10,000).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100) .
