However, our results were different from those reported
by Beardsley (1967) for the Florida straits (L50 = 35 and 45cm
FL for females and males, respectively), by Oxenford (1999) for
the western Atlantic (L50 = 84 cm and 80.5cm FL for females and
males, respectively), and by Massutí and Morales-Nin (1997) for
the Mediterranean (L50 = 54.5 and 61.8cmFL for females and males,
respectively).
