Estimates based on models
|
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804) |
PD50 = 0.5039 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. |
| Bayesian length-weight | a=0.02630 (0.01682 - 0.04114), b=2.96 (2.83 - 3.09), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items. |
| Generation time | 3.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies. |
|
Resilience (Ref. 120179) |
Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). |
|
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153) |
Low to moderate vulnerability (31 of 100). 🛈 |
|
Price category (Ref. 80766) |
Unknown. |
