Growth and mortality of Indian mackerel Rastrelliger kanagurta (Scombridae) in the Visayan Sea, Central Philippines
The growth of Indian mackeral Rastrelliger kanagurta in the Visayas Sea, central Philippines, is estimated, based on length-frequency data from 1983 to 1987 and the Compleat ELEFAN program. Results are TL8 = 38 cm and K = 0.8 year -1. These estimates are tentative and other vital statistics could not be estimated due to the absence of small fish in the available catch samples.
