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=0.00100 (0.00052 - 0.00192), b=3.25 (3.07 - 3.43), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
4.0 ±0.65 se; based on food items. |
| Generation time | 2.2 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies. |
|
Resilience (Ref. 120179) |
Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.5; Assuming tmax>3). |
|
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153) |
Low to moderate vulnerability (26 of 100). 🛈 |
