Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index
(Ref. 82804) 		PD50 = 1.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level
(Ref. 69278) 		2.8   ±0.18 se; based on food items.
Resilience
(Ref. 120179) 		High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Assuming tm<=1).
Fishing Vulnerability
(Ref. 59153) 		Low vulnerability (10 of 100). 🛈
Climate Vulnerability
(Ref. 125649) 		Moderate vulnerability (41 of 100). 🛈
