Abstract:
Summary
This study provides knowledge on reproductive traits of Trypauchen vagina, a target fish
for catching, based on data analysis of 701 individuals collected in the Mekong Delta from
January to December 2015. The species is a multiple spawner depositing eggs in early wet
season (June–August) since gonadosomatic index reaches a high point during this period,
supported by the appearance of ripe and spent gonads at that time. Male and female fish
matures firstly at 16.59 and 16.81 cm in total length respectively. The species displays
high batch fecundity (4,000–12,750 eggs/female). Knowledge of length at first maturity
and spawning season is essential for local authorities to set the suitable fish length and
time for fishing. The results provide fundamental information on the reproductive biology
and contributed to knowledge for fish population sustainable management.
