Abstract
Age and growth of the marbled rockfish, Sebastiscus marmoratus were studied based on 818 specimens caught from the coastal waters of Cheju Island from July 1992 to July 1993 and from June 1994 to July 1995. According to the monthly changes of marginal increment in each annual ring groups, the ring of otolith was formed in both female and male in February. Relationship between the total body length (TL) and the radius of otolith (R) was estimated, Growth of females was rather slower than that of male in total length; TL=-0.526+4.818R(r=0.847) for female, and TL=-1.895+ 5.239R (r=0.881) for male. The growth curve fits well with Bertalanffy equation:
