Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5312 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00823 - 0.01529), b=3.03 (2.94 - 3.12), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.41 se; based on food items.

Generation time: 13.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (tmax=20).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High to very high vulnerability (70 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
