Marine Resources Division, Department of Primary Industry and Fisheries Nubeena Crescent, Taroona, Tasmania 7053, Australia Biology and dynamics of the reproduction of blue-eye trevalla, Hyperoglyphe antarctica ICentrolophidae), off Tasmania, southern Australia Abstract.-The reproduction of blue-eye trevalla. H.vperogl.vphe antarctica, otTTasmania, southern AustraIia, is studied in detail through analysis of gonad maturation. spawning location and season, size at maturity. fecundity. and spawning frequency. Results show that the fecundity of blue-eye trevalla is determinate, and it has a high annual fecundity which increases exponentially with the length of females (to a maximum of about 11 million oocytes). Females are partial spawners and possibly spawn all their oocytes in 3 or 4 large batches, the size of batches increasing with the length of females. Both sexes reach sexual maturity at large sizes, 71.3 and 61.6 em fork length for females and males, respectively. One major spawning ground was identified off Tasmania where blue-eye trevalla aggregate from October to May. Smaller fish join the aggregation first, at early stages of gonad maturation, whereas larger fish appear to join the aggregation later. just prior to spawning. Spawning takes place at the end of summer-autumn (early March to early Mayl.
