Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Réf. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00598 - 0.01751), b=3.02 (2.87 - 3.17), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Niveau trophique (Réf. 69278):  2.3   ±0.27 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 3.1 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies.
Résilience (Réf. 120179):  Milieu, temps minimum de doublement de population : 1,4 à 4,4 années (K=0.35; Fec = 701;).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (34 of 100). 🛈
