| Description: | A study of mangrove oysters (Crassostrea rhizophorae) cultured in a raft system between January and June 1982 in the Vizcaya Tideland, Limón, Costa Rica showed that the rates of growth were higher for the first three months of culture, decreasing gradually in the next three months. An average length of 65.83 mm with a maximum of 85.50 mm was reached at the sixth month. Strong correlation was observed between total live weight and total length.The minimal sexual maturity size was 13 mm with an approximate age between 15 and 22 days; spawning was not observed in individuals smaller than 21 mm. |
