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=0.01693 (-0.20493 - 0.23879), b=2.84 (2.72 - 2.96), based on LWR estimates for this family-BS (Ref. 93245).
Trophic Level (Ref. 69278): 3.3 ±0.5 se; Based on diet studies.
Resilience (Ref. 69278): Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (30 of 100) .
