The reproductive biology of Pinguipes brasilianus Cuvier, 1829 (Osteichthyes: Pinguipedidae) in temperate rocky reefs of Argentina

Abstract: Pinguipes brasilianus is a conspicuous and abundant rocky-reef fish inhabiting the Northern Patagonian gulfs of Argentina, Southwest Atlantic. This study describes its reproductive biology in this region. We made macroscopic and histological descriptions of the testis and ovary development, analyzed the evolution of the gonadosomatic index (GSI) in both sexes throughout the year, and estimated fecundity and length at 50% maturity for females. Pinguipes brasilianus is a multiple spawner with indeterminate annua… Show more

“…Although the maximum size recorded for P. brasilianus was 70 cm TL (Roux, ; cited in Rosa & Rosa, ), as far as we know, no other fish larger than ca . 45 cm were ever recorded for the Argentinean coast (e.g., Cousseau & Perrotta, ; Villanueva Gomila, Macchi, Ehrlich, Irigoyen, & Venerus, ). Moreover, the maximum TL for S. oculatus reported here (40.8 cm TL for a male) exceeded the Fishbase record.…”
