Abstract

Reproductive data from Squalus cubensis (Cuban dogfish) were opportunistically collected from 2005-2012. Data include those necessary to examine reproductive cycle, fecundity, gestation period, and size at maturity for the species.

This Table contains data collected on the Mature females sampled.

Description

The information collected in this table is for mature females.
