Popis: The spawning aggregations of coral reef species support artisanal fisheries throughout the Pacific Islands, but they are vulnerable to overexploitation and need improved fisheries management. To this aim, the authors employed a combination of fishery methods including life-history studies to estimate the age, growth and reproductive parameters of longnose emperor (Lethrinus olivaceus), and a length-based stock assessment to provide the community of Rangiroa Atoll with an assessment of their longnose emperor spawning aggregation fishery. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters of this species were estimated to be L
