Intra-specific variability in life-history traits of Anadara tuberculosa (Mollusca: Bivalvia) in the mangrove ecosystem of the Southern coast of Ecuador

Anadara tuberculosa is one of the most important bivalves along the Western Pacific coast because of its commercial value. Nevertheless, the variability in growth, long-life span, natural mortality and reproductive parameters of this mangrove cockle has not yet been described. The aim of this study...

description Anadara tuberculosa is one of the most important bivalves along the Western Pacific coast because of its commercial value. Nevertheless, the variability in growth, long-life span, natural mortality and reproductive parameters of this mangrove cockle has not yet been described. The aim of this study was to analyze these life-history traits in three areas of the Southern coast of Ecuador. Empirical and length-based methods were used to estimate these biological parameters. Body size data were collected from the commercial fishery between 2004 and 2011 in landing ports near to the Archipelago of Jambeli [Puerto Bolivar (PB), Puerto Jeli (PJ) and Puerto Hualtaco (PH)]. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters for combined sex were estimated between 70.87 to 93.45mm for L¥ and 0.22 to 0.80/year for k. The growth indices (Φ’) ranged from 3.17 to 3.85, while the overall growth performance (OGP) ranged from 5.03 to 5.82. The mean of long-life span (tmax), size and age at maturity (L50% and t50%) were estimated in 7.71±2.53years, 39.13±2.24mm and 1.46±0.56years for PB; 9.51±2.85years, 37.78±1.95mm and 1.37±0.41years for PJ and 5.81±2.11years, 39.73±3.31mm and 0.94±0.41years for PH. Natural mortality (M) ranged from 0.46 to 1.28/year. We concluded that significant intra-specific variation was observed in a temporal scale in Φ’ and OGP indices as well as L50% and M. Therefore, temporal changes in these life-history traits should be taken into account when assessing the status of the mangrove cockle fishery.

Las variaciones intra-especificas en el crecimiento, longevidad, mortalidad natural y parámetros reproductivos de la concha prieta, aún no han sido descritas. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio fue analizar esos parámetros biológicos en tres áreas al Sur de Ecuador. Métodos empíricos y basados en tallas fueron empleados para estimar los parámetros de historia de vida. Los datos de tallas analizados correspondieron al periodo 2004-2011 y son provenientes del muestreo de los desembarques de los puertos adyacentes al Archipiélago de Jambeli [Puerto Bolivar (PB), Puerto Jeli (PJ) y Puerto Hualtaco (PH)], al Sur de Ecuador. Los parámetros de crecimiento oscilaron entre 70.87 y 93.45mm de L¥ y 0.22 a 0.80/año de k. Mientras que los índices de crecimiento entre 3.17 a 3.85 de F’ y 5.03 a 5.82 de OGP. Los valores promedio de longevidad (tmax), talla y edad de madurez (L50% y t50%) fueron de 7.71±2.53años, 39.13±2.24mm y 1.46±0.56años en PB; 9.51±2.85años, 37.78±1.95mm y 1.37±0.41años en PJ y de 5.81±2.11años, 39.73±3.31mm y 0.94±0.41años en PH. Las estimaciones de mortalidad natural (M) oscilaron entre 0.46 y 1.28/año. Importantes cambios intra-especificos se observaron a escala temporal tanto en los índices F’ y OGP, así como en L50% y M. Por lo tanto, se sugiere considerar las variaciones temporales en los parámetros biológicos de A. tuberculosa, al momento de caracterizar el estatus de su pesquería y más aun si es sometida a altos niveles de extracción. Universidad de Costa Rica2014-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rbt/article/view/850110.15517/rbt.v62i2.8501Revista de Biología Tropical; Vol. 62 No. 2 (2014): Volume 62 – Regular number 2 – June 2014; 473–482Revista de Biología Tropical; Vol. 62 Núm. 2 (2014): Volumen 62 – Número regular 2 – Junio 2014; 473–482Revista Biología Tropical; Vol. 62 N.º 2 (2014): Volumen 62 – Número regular 2 – Junio 2014; 473–4822215-20750034-774410.15517/rbt.v62i2reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRenghttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/rbt/article/view/8501/12869Derechos de autor 2014 Revista de Biología Tropicalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-06-09T17:26:58Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/8501Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:15:11.560Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
