Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Bathypelagic (Ref. 58426 ). Adults occur mainly between 500 and 2,000 m, but ranging from near the surface (young) to 5,000 m. Form schools, swim in small groups or solitary. Carnivorous (Ref. 27155 ), feeding on crustaceans when young and on fish mainly when adults (Ref. 4737 ). Serve as food for pelagic fishes such as tuna, albacore, and marlin (Ref. 5951 ). Oviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36624 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 2.3 - 9.1, mean 4 °C (based on 5006 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.0   ±0.53 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming tmax > 3; K=0.86 questionable). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 13.2 [3.4, 61.5] mg/100g; Iron = 0.429 [0.123, 1.367] mg/100g; Protein = 3 [0, 7] %; Omega3 = 0.221 [0.068, 0.720] g/100g; Selenium = 16.7 [4.6, 69.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 19.9 [2.3, 169.1] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.384 [0.161, 0.991] mg/100g (wet weight);
