Abstract:
Kole (Ctenochaetus strigosus) is one of the most numerous and conspicuous reef fishes in Hawaii. It is important both in commercial aquarium collecting as well as recreational and subsistence fisheries. Despite this, little is known of its life history. In this paper we provide information on morphometric relationships, growth, size-at-maturity, sex ratios, size-fecundity relationships, age structure, and mortality estimates. We measured the lengths and weights of specimens collected on Oahu, Lanai, and Hawaii to describe morphometric relationships.
