Discussion

  • Males are supposed to differ from females by {p_Am}, E_Hp and h_a only
  • mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females

Facts

  • Ovoviviparous, not viviparous, so reproduction is by eggs (Ref: Wiki)
  • length-weight: Ww in g = 0.01380 * (TL in cm)^3.03 (Ref: fishbase)
  • length-length from photo: SL = 0.83 * TL (Ref: fishbase)
  • Males die soon after maturation (Ref: Wiki)
