Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01514 (0.00873 - 0.02625), b=3.12 (2.97 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
ຊັ້ນເຂດຮ້ອນ (Ref. 69278):  3.0   ±0.34 se; based on food items.
ຄວາມຢືດຢຸ່ນ (Ref. 120179):  ສູງ, ປະຊາກອນຕຳ່ສຸດທີ່ໃຊ້ເວລາສອງໜ້ອຍກວ່າ 15 ເດືອນ (tm<1; multiple spawning per year; Fec=20-150).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 299 [141, 613] mg/100g; Iron = 1.23 [0.70, 2.19] mg/100g; Protein = 16.9 [15.7, 18.1] %; Omega3 = 0.276 [0.125, 0.582] g/100g; Selenium = 22.7 [10.9, 46.7] μg/100g; VitaminA = 85.1 [29.6, 226.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.88 [1.99, 4.14] mg/100g (wet weight);
