Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01175 (0.00543 - 0.02542), b=3.10 (2.93 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (20 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 112 [41, 330] mg/100g; Iron = 0.607 [0.290, 1.571] mg/100g; Protein = 17 [14, 20] %; Omega3 = 0.228 [0.117, 0.475] g/100g; Selenium = 86.8 [35.3, 236.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 64.7 [12.1, 308.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.572 [0.320, 1.166] mg/100g (wet weight);
