Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 2.5 - 6.6, mean 4 (based on 1890 cells).
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5156   [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).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  3.3   ±0.40 se; based on food items.
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179):  laag, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd 4,5-14 jaar (Assuming tmax>10).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100).
