Abstract
Growth rates of L. calcarifer in western Papua were determined using modal progression in length- frequency samples and analysis of increases in lengths of tagged fish. Growth was rapid, the Von Bertalanffy parameters being K = 0.128, L∞ = 138 cm and t0 = -1.12 years. The length-weight relationship was W = 0.0106l3.02, where W is weight measured in grams and I is length measured in centimetres.
