Abstract
The age and growth of Mullus barbatus L. 1758, sampled around the Gokceada Island from September 2014 to June 2015 was determined. A lifetime of 0–VII years was found using age derived from otolith readings. A total of 717 specimen ranging from 70 to 227 mm TL were collected. The length-weight relationship of the species was W = 0.006L3.22 for all individuals. The estimated von Bertalanffy growth parameters were L∞ = 27.2 cm, k = 0.17 yr–1, t0 = –2.49 for females, and L∞ = 15.9 cm, k = 0.74 yr–1, t0 = –0.83 for males.
