*Anne Marie Ndiaye and Babacar Sembene
ABSTRACT
Dentex macrophtalmus has a significant commercial value in Senegal. Despite this importance few biological studies have been conducted in our country. This work has been initiated in order to fill this gap. We conducted monthly withdrawals at the banks of landings surrounding the city of Dakar, Yoff, Ouakam Yarakh and Soumbédioum. Macroscopic observations and photonic associated monthly monitoring of gonadosomatic ratio hepatosomatic, condition factor summers were
performed to determine reproduction periods of D.macrophtalmus. This species has a breeding season that goes from February to June; sexual rest is from July to August. The size at first maturity is 13.94 cm in females and 13.89 cm in males.
