The main Spondylus limbatus population parameters were estimated based on the analysis of individual growth and reproductive aspects of specimens collected monthly (n = 30) from January to December 2009 in the fishing area of Agua Verde, Gulf of California. The size structure determined from shell measurements was 82–167 mm and the direct reading of shell sections indicated ages of 1–14 years. The data are adjusted to the von Bertalanffy, Gompertz, logistic, Richards and Schnute (Type 1) growth models. The von Bertalanffy model provided the best fit to describe individual growth in this species (SH_∞ = 142.7 mm, k = 0.47, t₀ = −0.20 years). The spawning season was determined through gonadal histology, and the size and age at sexual maturity through a logistic model. Reproductive activity occurred from March to September, with spawning peaks in July and August. The size and age at sexual maturity were 10.79 mm and 2.7 years, respectively. This information provides the necessary knowledge to implement management measures in the area. We recommend independent studies to establish management measures for each fishing area.
