Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.7500 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.9 ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Resilience (Ref. 120179): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Fec assumed to be <100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (47 of 100).

Nutrients (Ref. 124155): Calcium = 49.2 [7.3, 206.1] mg/100g ; Iron = 0.882 [0.235, 2.525] mg/100g ; Protein = 17.8 [15.1, 20.8] % ; Omega3 = 0.223 [0.097, 0.498] g/100g ; Selenium = 24.4 [6.5, 73.9] μg/100g ; VitaminA = 11.8 [4.6, 30.2] μg/100g ; Zinc = 0.652 [0.307, 1.535] mg/100g (wet weight);
