Age and growth of the southeastern Brazilian sardine, Sardinella brasiliensis

Abstract: Brazilian sardine datawere collected between September 1981 and August 1982 from the southeastern Brazilian waters. Otoliths were read using reflected ligth on the surface of the whole structure. Three methods were used to determine the time of ring formation, being the mean length per ring the best one. There are two annual rings clearly visible, one laid down in November/December, and the other one laid down in March/April. A method of age determination is described, being the maximum age 3 years.

“…Due to its economic importance, the sardine has been subject of many studies including those investigating growth (Braga, 1982;1987;RossiWongtschowski et al, 1982;Vazzoler et al, 1982;1987;Saccardo et al, 1988;Cergole & Valentini, 1994;Cergole & Rossi-Wongtschowski, 2005;Fonteles-Filho et al, 2005;Cergole & Dias Neto, 2011). Huxley (1993)'s classic treatment of the theme of relative growth established a conceptual framework for the use of size relationships in morphometric studies.…”
