Resumo(s)
The population dynamics parameters of Diplodus vulgaris (Sparidae) from the south and south-west coast of Portugal were
studied. 1086 fishes with total lengths ranging from 3.3 to 37.9 cm were obtained from previous gear selectivity studies supplemented
by market sampling and beach seining for juveniles (1992–2000). The spawning season extended from September
to April and total lengths at 50% maturity were 17.27 cm for males and 17.65 cm for females. These estimated sizes were
greater than the minimum legal landing size (MLS = 15 cm) and smaller than length at first capture (Lc50 = 21.68 cm)
for the longline fishery. The parameters of the von Bertalanffy growth equation were: L∞ = 27.73 cm, K = 0.40 per year,
t0 = −0.34 year. The instantaneous rates of total mortality (Z) and natural mortality (M) were 0.63 and 0.45 per year, respectively.
Rates of fishing mortality F and exploitation E were 0.18 and 0.28 per year, respectively. Estimated parameters and the
relative yield-per-recruit analysis showed that this species is not over exploited by longlines.
