  • VARIATION in SETTLEMENT and LARVAL DURATION of Klng GEORGE WHITING, SILLAGINODES PUNCTATA (SILLAGINIDAE), in SWAN BAY, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA
    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE, 54(1): 281-296, 1994 VARIATION IN SETTLEMENT AND LARVAL DURATION OF KlNG GEORGE WHITING, SILLAGINODES PUNCTATA (SILLAGINIDAE), IN SWAN BAY, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA Gregory P. Jenkins and Helen M. A. May ABSTRACT Otoliths were examined from late-stage larvae and juveniles of King George whiting, Sillaginodes punctata, collected from Swan Bay in spring 1989. Increments in otoliths of larval S. punctata are known to be formed daily. A transition in the microstructure of otoliths from late-stage larvae was apparently related to environmental changes associated with entry to Port Phillip Bay. The pattern of abundance of post-larvae of S. punctata in fortnightly samples supported the contention that the transition was formed immediately prior to "set- tlement" in seagrass habitats. Backcalculation to the otolith transition suggested that five cohorts had entered Swan Bay, each approximately 10 days apart, from late September to early November. Stability of this pattern for juveniles from sequential samples indicated that otolith increments continued to be formed daily in the juvenile stage. The pattern of settlement was consistent for two sites within Swan Bay. The larval phase of King George whiting settling in Port Phillip Bay was extremely long and variable, ranging from approximately 100 to 170 days. Age at settlement was more variable than length, and growth rate at settlement was I I extremely slow, approximately 0.06 mm ·d- • • Backcalculated hatching dates ranged from April to JUly. July. Increment widths in the larval stage suggest that growth slows after approxi- mately 45 to 75 days; beyond which individuals are in a slow growth, competent stage of 40 to 100 days.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Service NOAA TECHNICAL REPORT NMFS The major responsibilities of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) are to monitor and assess the abundance and geographic distribution of fishery resources, to understand and predict fluctuations in the quantity and distribution of these resources, and to establish levels for their optimum use. NMFS is also charged with the development and implementation of policies for managing national fishing grounds, development and enforcement of domestic fisheries regulations, surveillance of foreign fishing off United States coastal waters, and the development and enforcement of international fishery agreements and policies. NMFS also assists the fishing industry through marketing service and economic analysis programs. and mortgage insurance and vessel construction subsidies. It collects, analyzes, and publishes statistics on various phases of the industry. The NOAA Technical Report NMFS series was established in 1983 to replace two subcategories of the Technical Reports series: "Special Scientific Report-Fisheries" and "Circular." The series contains the following types of reports: Scientific investigations that document long-term continuing programs of NMFS; intensive scientific reports on studies of restricted scope; papers on applied fishery problems; technical reports of general interest intended to aid conservation and management; reports that review in con­ siderable detail and at a high technical level certain broad areas of research; and technical papers originating in economics studies and from management investigations.

  • Sillago Sihama (Forsskål, 1775) Fig
    click for previous page __________________________________________________________________Sillaginid Fishes of the World _______________________________________________________ 59 Diagnostic Features: First dorsal fin with X to XII spines and second dorsal fin with I spine and 19 to 22 soft rays; anal fin with II spines and 17 to 20 soft rays. Lateral-line scales 66 to 76. Vertebrae: 16 or 17 abdominal + 8 to 11 modified + 10 to 13 caudal, total of 37. Swimbladder without a median anterior extension. Geographical Distribution: Western Australia from Shark Bay southward along the southern coast of Australia to eastern South Australia. One unconfirmed report of this species from Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia (Fig. 129). Habitat and Biology: Sillago schomburgkii frequents inshore sand banks, bars and spits, and congregates in sandy hollows. It occurs in depths of 0 to 30 m. At high tide this species moves in schools across the sand flats and retreats to the slopes of the banks when the tide falls. It enters sandy estuaries in large schools, and may penetrate to the limit of the brackish water. At Mandurah and Leschenault Inlet, Western Australia, large schools appear during the summer months. The spawning season commences in September and is completed by January in Shark Bay (Lenanton 1969a). The juveniles frequent the shallows of protected bays Fig. 129 and inlets and move into deeper water at maturity. Size: To 41 cm total length. Interest to Fisheries: Taken by seine in open bays and near estuaries. This species forms the basis for small fisheries. It has potential as an aquaculture species. Local Names: AUSTRALIA: Yellowfin whiting. Literature: Scott (1962:187-188, fig.); Whitley (1964:43); Lenanton (1969a:4-11, 1969b:5); Jones (1981:20-23); Hutchins and Swainston (1966:col.
