The growth dynamics of the otolith of the yellow-striped flounder Pseudopleuronectes herzensteini, in general, it has a similar character for males and females. During the first third of life, the otolith reaches 2/3 of the maximum size in both sexes. There are two stages in the growth of the otolith: nonlinear and linear. Sexual differences are better shown at the initial stage. The linear stage corresponds to the period of sexual maturity. The growth of the otoliths of the males is more abrupt, and the growth of the otoliths of the females is more monotonous. The specific growth rate of otolith increases with the change of temperature regime: from spring to summer and from autumn to winter
