A study of the population dynamics of the anchovy Cetengraulis mysticetus is presented, based on two sets of length-frequency dates from the artisanal fishery of the Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica, between 1989/90 and 1992/93. Covered are growth, length-weight relationships, fishing and natural mortality, gear selection and yield-per-recruit analysis.
