Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 0.7 - 6.3, mean 3.2 °C (based on 435 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00832 (0.00542 - 0.01276), b=3.14 (3.01 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.2 se; based on diet studies.
Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 4,5-14 år (tm=6-8; tmax=9-13; K=0.08-0.21; Fec=2,00-10,000).
