Fecundity of Northeast Arctic Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides)

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Relationships between fecundity (thousands) and total length (cm), F = 1.155 × 10 -7 × L 4.598 and fecundity (thousands) and round weight (g) (F = 2.539 × 10 -4 × W 1.439 ) were established for Greenland halibut in the Northeast Atlantic, based on a total of 95 ovaries collected near the Bear Island in the Barents Sea, in September 1996.The potential fecundity ranged from 6 800 to 70 500 eggs per female.The Greenland halibut were in the total length range 48-80 cm.The Greenland halibut were maturing with ovaries containing vitellogenic oocyte sized about 2-4 mm in diameter, visual to the naked eye.
