Abstract
Age and growth of Brown croaker Miichthys miiuy were estimated using right sagittal otoliths of 327 fish specimens from August 2015 to July 2016 in Korea. Annual rings in otoliths were formed from March to June once a year. The oldest specimens were 11 yr in female and 9 yr in male. Brown croaker began spawning in September and showed a peak in October. Total length and body weight relationships showed no significant difference between females and males (P>0.05), and can be expressed as $BW=1.15{\times}10^{-5}{\times}TL^{2928}$ ($R^2=0.98$). Estimated von Bertalanffy growth curve was $L_t=182.4(1-e^{-0.067(t+1.754)})$ ($R^2=0.96$).
