Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 2.8 - 6.8, mean 4.5 °C (based on 969 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.6406   [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 ):  4.2   ±0.73 se; based on food items. Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
