Description:Growth rate, longevity, maturity and spawning seasonality were estimated for the endemic Hawaiian hogfish Bodianus albotaeniatus. The sex‐specific von Bertalanffy growth parameters are L∞ = 339 mm fork length (LF) and K = 0.66 year−1 for females and L∞ = 417 mm LF and K = 0.33 year−1 for males. The maximum age is 22 years. Histological gonad analysis and the absence of small and young males indicate a monandric protogynous hermaphrodite. Size and age at maturity for combined sexes are L50 = 238 mm LF and A50 = 1.6 years.
