MEBIN- Title
- Age and growth of four Sardinella species from Sri Lanka
- Abstract
Age, growth and spawning season were studied in Sardinella sirm, S. albella, S. gibbosa and S. longiceps collected by gill nets in the coastal waters of Sri Lanka.
Ageing was based on primary growth rings in the otoliths. The daily periodicity as verified for S. sirm by comparing mean increase in number of rings and the time elapsed between a series of sampling dates. For the other species, the same periodicity was inferred from the similarity in structure to that of S. sirm.
