抄録

The age and growth of ribbon fishes Trichiurus japonicus in Kagoshima Bay were estimated from otoliths. Bimonthly changes in the marginal growth index indicatedthat the annulus was formed once a year, between December and February. A singlemode in the frequency distribution of preanal length for each age group suggested that each of the latter comprised a single cohort, probably born in sum-mer.One-to six-year age groups were recorded for females (pre-anal length range 190-447mm) and one-to five-years for males (pre-anal length range 199-383mm). Back-calculated pre-anal lengths were fitted to von Bertalanffy's growth equation separately by sex. Females grew faster and reached a larger size than males. The possibility of compensatory growth between larger and smaller fishes after the firstyear was suggested. Growth of the Kagoshima Bay population was compared with that of the same species from other two localities in Japan.
