En el periodo de 1989 a 1991 se midieron 973 organismos de pez vela Istiophorus platypterus capturados por la flota de pesca deportiva del sur del golfo de California y se recolectó la cuarta espina de la aleta dorsal de 754 ejemplares para hacer cortes transversales y estimar la edad de estos peces. Se contaron las bandas opaco-hialinas presentes en cada corte y el 97 % fueron legibles. El análisis mensual del tipo de borde, opaco o hialino, indicó que la formación de una banda opaca seguida de una hialina es anual. Se estimaron grupos de edad del O al 7, siendo los más abundantes el 3, 2 y 4, respectivamente. En el análisis de la composición de longitud, se encontró que la mayoría de los organismos midieron entre 180 y 210 cm de longitud mandibular.
Specimens (973) of the sailfish Istiophorus platypterus caught by sport fishing in the southern of the Gulf California from 1989 to 1991 were measured. The fourth spine of the dorsal fin of 745 specimens were also collected to estimate age and growth based on observations of a transyerse section. We were able to read the opaque and translucent bands of 97% of the sections. A monthly analysis of the type of edge, opaque or translucent, indicated that the formation of an opaque band from a hialine one takes one year. Thus, we were able to estimate the numbers in age groups from O to 7. The most abundant age groups were, in order 3, 2 and 4. The majority of!be specimens were between 180 and 210 cm in body length.
