Age and growth of four-spotted megrim (Lepidorhombus boscii Risso, 1810) from Saros Bay (Northern Aegean Sea, Turkey)
Abstract
In this study, the growth parameters of the four-spotted megrim, (Lepidorhombus boscii Risso, 1810), were studied in Saros Bay, which had been closed to bottom trawl fishery since 2000. The sex ratio of females to males was 1:0.42. Length-weight relationships were W=0.0032L3.31 and W=0.0069L3.04 for females and males, respectively. Growth parameters of the populations were L∞=49.8 cm, k=0.09 year-1, t0=-2.15 year for females; L∞=39.1 cm, k=0.11 year-1, t0=-2.59 year for males. The growth performance index (Φ’) was found to be 2.35 and 2.23 for females and males, respectively.
