Introduced to Iran and is now naturally occurring in the Caspian Sea basin (Ref. 50218 ). Length at first maturity / Size / Weight / Age Maturity: L m 21.3 , range 17 - 22 cm Max length : 40.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 3397 ); common length : 30.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 9987 ) Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic) Adults usually in schools inhabit coastal waters (Ref. 3573 ); sometimes in lagoons and estuaries (Ref. 59043 ). Juveniles around 2.0 cm SL move to coastal lagoons and estuaries in summer and autumn (Ref. 59043 ). Adults are herbivorous feeding on algae and vegetal detritus while juveniles feed on zooplankton until about 3 cm SL, then on benthic organisms until 5 cm SL (Ref. 9987 , 59043 ). Reproduce in summer (Ref. 2804 ). Oviparous, eggs are pelagic and non-adhesive (Ref. 205 ). Utilized for roe, but also fresh, smoked and frozen (Ref. 9987 ).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5005   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01072 (0.00899 - 0.01277), b=2.96 (2.93 - 2.99), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  2.9   ±0.38 se; based on food items. Generation time: 4.2 (3.4 - 5.5) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 12 growth studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.2-0.3; tm=3-4). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Moderate to high vulnerability (45 of 100). Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649 ):  Moderate vulnerability (39 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Medium . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 51.7 [14.1, 292.9] mg/100g; Iron = 0.722 [0.360, 1.278] mg/100g; Protein = 18.4 [17.0, 20.0] %; Omega3 = 0.73 [0.33, 1.67] g/100g; Selenium = 6.96 [2.86, 17.33] μg/100g; VitaminA = 12.3 [3.7, 38.5] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.621 [0.386, 0.987] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
