Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82805): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01148 (0.00581 - 0.02270), b=3.13 (2.96 - 3.30), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic Level (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; Based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 4.6 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median LN(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (tm=6; Fec=2,238).
Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Moderate vulnerability (35 of 100) .
