Age and growth of blue antimora Antimora rostrata were examined in the waters off New Zealand and Macquarie Island (southwestern Pacific). Samples off Macquarie Island were collected from bycatch in the Patagonian toothfish longline fishery. Individuals between 20 and 44 years in age measured between 37.6–71.1 cm in total length. Bottom trawl catches from New Zealand waters consisted of smaller and younger fish (11 to 38 years), measuring 22.5–52.5 cm long. The age classes with the greatest numbers in the former area were represented by fish aged 33–34 years (25.7%). In the latter area, the most numerous age classes were 21–23 years (12.1%), 28–29 years (17.6%), and 32 years (6.6%). The blue antimora from off the Macquarie Island show similar growth rates to those of individual fish from the Ross, Lazarev and Weddell Seas, waters off the Kerguelen and Crozet Islands, and southeastern Greenland. Individuals from New Zealand waters demonstrate the slowest growth rates compared to other parts of the species’ range but are quite similar to individuals from the Flemish Cap area. Further research to identify the stock structure of this broadly distributed species is warranted to provide context to differences in growth rates observed between populations. |
