Population biological traits of Periophthalmus chrysospilos Bleeker, 1853 in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta.

ABSTRACT: Periophthalmus chrysospilos is an amphibious fish living in mudflats from eastern India to Indonesia, including the Vietnamese Mekong Delta. Population biological traits play an important role in fishery assessment, but understanding is limited for this species. In total 1,031 specimens were caught in two regions covering four provinces, including the TVST (Duyen Hai, Tra Vinh and Tran De, Soc Trang) and BLCM (Dong Hai, Bac Lieu and Dam Doi, Ca Mau). Results found that the sex ratio was close to 1:1. The parameters of the von Bertalanffy in TVST were L_∞ = 12.8 cm, K = 0.41 yr^-1, t₀ = -0.10 yr and in BLCM were 12.7 cm, 0.38 yr^-1 and -0.08 yr, respectively. Although the growth coefficient (Φ') in BLCM (1.79), was
