Abstract

The age of 320 specimen of Plagioscion monti and 280 specimen or P. squamosissimus was determined by means of daily rings on the otoliths. The length of the fish were in the range of 0.4 - 15 cm.
Within this size interval, the increase in length can be assumed to be linear, and the increase of weight to be an exponential function.
