Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804) |
PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. |
| Bayesian length-weight | a=0.00912 (0.00804 - 0.01035), b=2.98 (2.94 - 3.02), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
3.4 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies. |
| Generation time | 5.7 (3.6 - 7.2) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 13 growth studies. |
