Estimates based on models
|
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804) |
PD50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. |
| Bayesian length-weight | a=0.00933 (0.00510 - 0.01709), b=3.18 (3.02 - 3.34), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245). |
|
Trophic level (Ref. 69278) |
3.4 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives |
| Generation time | 4.2 ( 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 (tm=2-3; Fec=4,137). |
|
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153) |
Moderate vulnerability (38 of 100). 🛈 |
