Estimates based on models
|
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804) |
PD50 = 0.5005 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. |
| Bayesian length-weight | a=0.00977 (0.00407 - 0.02346), b=3.08 (2.87 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
3.2 ±0.1 se; based on diet studies. |
|
Resilience (Ref. 120179) |
High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (K=0.36; tm = 1.5; tmax=4.5). |
|
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153) |
Low to moderate vulnerability (29 of 100). 🛈 |
