length for males (95 cm FL) was slightly greater than 
for females (80 cm FL), whereas in gillnet landings it 
was equivalent (100 cm FL). Mean lengths in the 
longline landings, including nonsexed specimens, 
ranged from 85 cm FL in sector 5 to 205 cm FL in sec- 
tor 1. The mean length for gill nets was the same for
