Abstract
The observation concerns otoliths of Atlantic cod from the Słupsk Bank. A total of 100 pairs of otoliths were selected from 100 specimens, the total length of which ranged from 5.2 cm to 62 cm. It was found that the greater the length of the fish, the smaller the ratio of otolith length to width. Whether this is a regular trend that was observed for the first time, or a matter of analyzing otoliths from different populations, remains an unresolved question. No differences were found between males and females in the relationship between fish size and otolith size, or changes in the ratio of otolith length to width.
