| Comments on Fecundity: | Regression between fecundity and SL calculated as F=118.49L-1150.91; the number of mouthbrooded embryos ranged between 482 (14cm SL female) and 1175 (22.6cm SL female) (Ref. 57832). | ||||||||||||

| Comments: | Size-related sex ratio was 1:1, except for specimens smaller than 8cm SL, where females dominate, and for specimens larger than 19cm SL, where males predominate; monthly sex ratio was 1:1, except during late summer months when males again predominated (Ref. 57832). Same female lays at least twice per year (Ref. 3, 57832). Regression between fecundity and SL calculated as F=118.49L-1150.91; the number of mouthbrooded embryos ranged between 482 (14cm SL female) and 1175 (22.6cm SL female) (Ref. 57832). | ||||||||||||
