Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 10.5 - 23.6, mean 15.9 °C (based on 997 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.02754 (0.02024 - 0.03749), b=2.97 (2.88 - 3.06), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.1   ±0.0 se; based on diet studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming tm=2-4). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (21 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Unknown . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 97.8 [49.0, 215.6] mg/100g; Iron = 0.856 [0.474, 1.596] mg/100g; Protein = 17.7 [16.5, 18.9] %; Omega3 = 0.241 [0.128, 0.461] g/100g; Selenium = 79.8 [35.9, 189.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 24.1 [6.4, 103.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.987 [0.649, 1.481] mg/100g (wet weight);
