Estimates based on models

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5039   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00447 (0.00252 - 0.00792), b=3.02 (2.86 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278):  2.9   ±0.22 se; based on food items.
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179):  Hoog, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd minder dan 15 maanden (K=2.62).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Prijsklasse (Ref. 80766):   Unknown.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 593 [227, 2,289] mg/100g; Iron = 8.76 [2.46, 23.44] mg/100g; Protein = 17.2 [15.8, 18.6] %; Omega3 = 0.348 [0.089, 1.277] g/100g; Selenium = 136 [36, 405] μg/100g; VitaminA = 29.9 [7.1, 117.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.89 [2.09, 6.69] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
