Abstract
The Peruvian anchovy (Engraulis ringens) is a resource of considerable economic importance, whose stock unit is distributed between 16°00′S and 24°00′S and is shared between Chile and Peru. In the present study, daily growth patterns of juvenile and adult Peruvian anchovies in northern Chile were determined using micro-increments of sagittal otoliths for the recruitment and fishery seasons of 2009 and 2010. A characteristic feature was the existence of very distinctive daily micro-increments, through which a complete sequence of micro-increments was obtained from the primordium to otolith edge for juveniles (7.5–12-cm total length (TL)) and adults (12.5–18.0 cm TL), whose ages were in the range 56–166 and 137–409 days respectively. Hatch dates extended from July 2009 to July 2010, where juveniles recruited to a fishery in a given month were the survivors of a spawning that had occurred approximately 3–4 months before. A Laird–Gompertz model fitted to length-at-age data for juveniles estimated maximum instantaneous growth rates that ranged from 0.98 to 1.57 mm day–1, whereas overall mean individual growth rates back-calculated for the age range of juveniles ranged from 0.65 to 1.02 mm day–1. The von Bertalanffy seasonal parameters estimated through the entire life history showed high growth, with a growth coefficient K = 1.1 and mean length at the first year of 16.3 cm TL. Consequently, E. ringens in northern Chile seems to maximize growth in the first year of life.
