Biología     Glosario (por ej. epibenthic)

Inhabit rocky or hard bottom and is a voracious eater. Food includes crustaceans, mollusks, sea urchins, fishes such as herring, sand lance and silver hake, and any bottom invertebrates that are available. When taken out of the water the belly becomes inflated so that when returned to the water they are unable to submerge. Adults attach their eggs near the base of a sponge to use as a spawning bed (Ref. 34819, 41075).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 0.5 - 10.2, mean 3.8 °C (based on 130 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.6289   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00501 (0.00197 - 0.01276), b=3.15 (2.93 - 3.37), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278):  4.5   ±0.5 se; based on diet studies.
Resiliencia (Ref. 120179):  Muy bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo superior a 14 años (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate to high vulnerability (47 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 32.1 [17.3, 64.8] mg/100g; Iron = 0.341 [0.174, 0.650] mg/100g; Protein = 17.2 [15.9, 18.5] %; Omega3 = 0.575 [0.254, 1.525] g/100g; Selenium = 17.2 [8.4, 40.8] μg/100g; VitaminA = 24.2 [7.4, 79.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.423 [0.300, 0.618] mg/100g (wet weight);
