Comparison between Otoliths and Length Based Ageing and Growth of African Armoured Searobin (<i>Peristedion cataphractum</i> L. 1758; Teleostei, Peristediidae) off the Southern Coasts of Sicily (Mediterranean Sea)

<div>Age-at-total length plot of<i> Peristedion cataphractum</i> (sex combined) off the southern coasts of Sicily with overimposed fitted von Bertalanffy growth function. Solid and dotted lines refer to the curve derived after direct ageing and back calculation, respectively. Bars refer to the standard error; TL = total length (mm).</div>
