Length-weight relationships, growth parameters (Von Bertalanffy equation), both for males and females exhibited allometric growth. Females grew at a faster rate, while males grew slower but reached a larger ultimate size and age. The sex ratio of the spawning oecurred throughout yean New evidences like size at which 50% are mature, low Gonadosomatic index, Nidamentalsomatic index and non semelparous reproduction are described.
