Discussion

  • males are assumed to differ from females by E_Hp only
  • mod_1: predicted age at birth is much larger than "observed"

Facts

  • length-weight: Ww in g = 0.00501 * (TL in cm)^3.05 (Ref: fishbase)
  • Tolerates low salinity levels and is also found in inshore waters, including bays and estuaries (Ref: Wiki)
  • Ovoviviparous (Ref: fishbase)
