Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00806 - 0.01300), b=3.03 (2.99 - 3.07), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref.
93245).
Generation time: 5.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2
growth studies.
लौटाव (Ref.
120179): निम्न, न्यूनतम जनसंख्या दुगनी होने का समय 4.5 - 14 वर्ष। (K=0.12-0.26; tmax=5; Fec > 10,000).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Moderate vulnerability (39 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 143 [40, 249] mg/100g; Iron = 0.881 [0.539, 1.555] mg/100g; Protein = 16.5 [15.7, 17.4] %; Omega3 = 0.388 [0.153, 1.012] g/100g; Selenium = 382 [148, 1,055] μg/100g; VitaminA = 11.9 [4.7, 31.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.32 [0.71, 2.58] mg/100g (wet weight);
