Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Fonte Biblio. 123201): 3.7 - 7.1, mean 5.2 °C (based on 28 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Fonte Biblio. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01000 (0.00495 - 0.02022), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Fonte Biblio. 69278):  3.7   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 8.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Resilienza (Fonte Biblio. 120179):  Molto basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione più di 14 anni (tmax=47).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Moderate to high vulnerability (50 of 100). 🛈
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Medium.
