Abstract: ABSTRACT. Reproductive aspects of lhe grey triggerfish, Balistes caprisclIs (Gmelin) (Actinopterygii, Tetraodontiformes, Balistidae) from South São Paulo state coast, Brazil. The monthly analysis of maturity stage ti'equency suggested that spawning ofthe grey triggerfish Balisles capriscus (Gmelin, 1788) is annual, total and occurs from Novemberto FebrualY in the south ofSào Paulo State, Brazil. Size at firsl .Illaturity is 169 mm for temales and 200 mm for males. Condition factor estimated cOllsidering and di… Show more

“…A similar behavior, described before by Bernardes & Dias (2000) for B. capriscus female, was reported by Kawase (2003) for Xanthichthys mento, with the species spawning in pairs on sandy bottom and both, males and females, taking care of the eggs for two days until they hatched. Both males and females disappear from the territories after the larvae are born.…”

“…In general, however, hydration of oocytes during maturation is especially pronounced in fish that have pelagic or floating eggs, occurring in a less pronounced way in species with demersal eggs or not floating ones. Many species of the family Balistidae lay their eggs in the substrate, such as: Pseudobalistes flavimarginatus (Gladstone, 1994), Sufflamen chrysopterum (Ishihara & Kuwamura, 1996), Rhinecanthus aculeatus (Kuwamura, 1997), Balistes capriscus (Bernardes & Dias, 2000) e Xanthichthys mento (Kawase, 2003). Another reason for the low frequency of hydrated oocytes is also the short time in which hydration occurs at the moment of spawning, as described by Tricas & Hiramoto (1989) for Chaetodon multicinctus.…”

“…In terms of the number of individuals, we noticed that nearly 71% of the total number of individuals was sampled in spring, although the biomasses of both seasons are nearly 50% of the total weight. This shows that there are more individuals relatively smaller in spring than in autumn, which may indicate a possible reproductive season for at least some of the species (e.g., Araújo & Santos, 1999;Bernardes & Dias, 2000;Robert & Chaves, 2001;Castello & Castello, 2003;Godefroid et al, 2004;Lima & Castello, 2007;Bruno & Muelbert, 2009). As for the biomass, approximately 71% of the total weight was sampled in 1990 although the number of individuals did not differ much between the two years.…”
