Observations over a 24-month period are reported. Insemination rates, ovary weights and their seasonal variations, histological development of ovaries, and spawning stock abundance are presented and compared between species. Population fecundity indexes were derived monthly, and are compared with sample estimates of abundance and commercial catch rates.
