Resumen

Este trabajo describe el crecimiento de las etapas tempranas del ciclo de vida de la anchoa europea (Engraulis encrasicolus L.) en el golfo de Bizkaia mediante el análisis de la microestructura de los otolitos. Se capturaron larvas y juveniles de anchoa durante su periodo de crecimiento en tres años (2004, 2005 y 2006). El modelo de crecimiento logístico se ajustó a los datos de las tallas por edad. Al final del primer año de crecimiento, la talla estimada para la anchoa fue de 168.3 mm, con una tasa máxima de crecimiento de 1.85 mm día^-1 a los 73 días después de la eclosión. Además, se aplicó el modelo de crecimiento Gompertz para estimar los parámetros de crecimiento del otolito. Al final del primer año, el radio estimado del otolito fue de 1759 μm, y la tasa de crecimiento máxima de 22.19 μm día^-1 se obtuvo a los 56 días después de la eclosión. Se observó una estrecha relación entre la longitud estándar y el radio del otolito; sin embargo, mientras que en la fase larvaria dicha relación es exponencial, en el caso de los juveniles, pasa a ser lineal.
