Mean meat percentage was stimed at 55,31% and the mean percentage of the condition index was 62,59 varing from 48,0 in March to 85,0 in September. The monthly variations of condition index and meat showed similar fluctuations. The development and maturation of the lasidium takes place between juny and jannuary.
