Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 3 - 6.1, mean 3.7 °C (based on 57 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00355 (0.00176 - 0.00714), b=3.09 (2.91 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.8   ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.
Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179):  sehr niedrig, Verdopplung der Population dauert mehr als 14 Jahre. (Fec assumed to be <10).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 10.9 [1.9, 65.3] mg/100g; Iron = 0.36 [0.08, 1.25] mg/100g; Protein = 18.7 [16.6, 20.9] %; Omega3 = 0.249 [0.094, 0.654] g/100g; Selenium = 16.7 [5.1, 56.2] μg/100g; VitaminA = 6.45 [1.27, 30.69] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.319 [0.159, 0.597] mg/100g (wet weight);
