Occurs from shallow inshore waters to depths of 477 m and up to 260 m in the Gulf of Maine (Ref. 7135). Benthic (Ref. 5951). Nocturnal predators (Ref. 93252). Feeds mainly on fishes, but also on shrimps and small shellfish. Commonly caught by anglers along piers, docks and jetties in middle Atlantic states.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 7.1 - 25.2, mean 19.7 °C (based on 61 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00049 (0.00027 - 0.00088), b=3.25 (3.09 - 3.41), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.5 ±0.8 se; based on diet studies.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 4,5-14 år (Assuming tm>4).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).

Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649): High vulnerability (60 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Low.

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 27.1 [15.1, 52.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.781 [0.431, 1.338] mg/100g; Protein = 18.8 [15.9, 21.7] %; Omega3 = 0.284 [0.126, 0.807] g/100g; Selenium = 62.7 [30.7, 130.0] μg/100g; VitaminA = 9.12 [2.53, 34.69] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.384 [0.274, 0.565] mg/100g (wet weight);
