Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804): PD₅₀ = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00955 (0.00430 - 0.02123), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278): 2.0 ±0.0 se; based on diet studies.

Resilienza (Fonte Biblio. 120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100). 🛈

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
