Title Growth rates of the sardines, Sardinella albella
(Val.) and S. Gibbosa (Bleek.), in the Mandapam area

Subject Oil sardine
 
Description The monthly mean lengths of the 0-year-classes of S. albella and 5'. gibbosa were
estimated for the Palk Bay seasons of 1952-56. They indicated that, for the greater part
of the Pallc Bay season, the length of each species increased at a decreasing rate. But
towards the end of the season it appeared to increase at an increasing rate. The von
Bertalanffy equation was litted to the former part, the growth curve so obtained was
extrapolated to the latter part of the season also, and the observed and expected mean
lengths were compared. It was seen that the differences in the rate of change of the
monthly mean lengths between years were statistically non-significant.
