Growth and Life Span of the Commercial Gastropods of Buccinidae Family in Peter the Great Bay, Sea of Japan

Growth and Life Span of the Commercial Gastropods of Buccinidae Family in Peter the Great Bay,... Patterns with of body size and mass age variation in five gastropod species of Buccinidae family from Ussuriisky Bay (Peter the Great Bay, Sea of Japan) were studied. Equations of body size and mass correlation were obtained for each species, Bertalanffy's equations of group growth were estimated, and specifics of rates of linear growth and of body mass with age variation were considered. It was determined that in the survey area, the life span for Buccinum bayani bayani was nine years; for B. verkruzeni, 11; for Neptunea constricta, 17; for N. lyrata lyrata 18; and for N. polycostata, 16. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Russian Journal of Marine Biology Springer Journals

Abstract

Patterns with of body size and mass age variation in five gastropod species of Buccinidae family from Ussuriisky Bay (Peter the Great Bay, Sea of Japan) were studied. Equations of body size and mass correlation were obtained for each species, Bertalanffy's equations of group growth were estimated, and specifics of rates of linear growth and of body mass with age variation were considered. It was determined that in the survey area, the life span for Buccinum bayani bayani was nine years; for B. verkruzeni, 11; for Neptunea constricta, 17; for N. lyrata lyrata 18; and for N. polycostata, 16.
