240-241
Sex ratio, sexual dimorphism and age at first maturity in Hemifusus pugilinus were analysed. The females were dominant throughout the year in larger length groups while males were dominant in smaller length groups. Gonadial smear showed the age at first maturity in males in 61-65 mm length group and in females in 65-70 mm length group. F-test showed the existence of sexual dimorphism in H. pugilinus. But the SEM studies on the radula of both males and females showed no marked sexual dimorphism in the radular morphology. |
