Abstract

The total annual potential fecundity of mature Lates calcarifer (n = 47) of 855
to 1,255 mm range along Tuticorin coast in Gult of Mannar was estimated.
The lowest fecundity was observed to be 3.85 x 10^ and highest 30.18 x 10'^
eggs. The fecundity was positively correlated with the length and weight of
the fish.
