Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5020 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01230 (0.00955 - 0.01585), b=2.98 (2.91 - 3.05), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.2 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 738 [186, 1,534] mg/100g; Iron = 2.18 [1.02, 4.40] mg/100g; Protein = 16.1 [13.8, 18.8] %; Omega3 = 0.509 [0.204, 1.239] g/100g; Selenium = 51.4 [20.3, 123.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 37.2 [9.3, 162.2] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.43 [1.99, 5.32] mg/100g (wet weight); based on
nutrient studies.
