The only annual growth ring observed, formed by two bands, one hyaline and another opaque, corresponded to winter and summer growth, respectively. According to the analysis of otoliths edge, birthday was established on 1st July. Within the age range observed, that comprised 3-18 year old specimens, age groups 7, 8 and 9 were the most frequently identified in both sexes. Growth parameters estimates showed significant differences between them.
