Description Observations made on the fishery and biology of Cynoglossus dubius Day
at Calicut during 1967-1972 showed that 1969 was the best year, and 1972 the
worst for this fishery. The length range varied from below 5 cm to 40-40.9 cm
(total length); the exceptionally smallest and largest records were, however,
2.2 cm and 41.4 cm respectively. Scales showed growth rings. The first ring was
seen in fish of about 18 cm total length. Up to ten or even more rings seem to
occur in the largest fish. The spawning season is roughly the same as, or a little
later than that of the Malabar sole, C. macrostomus (Norman).
