37 Mean age of individuals from the middle and lower coast was statistically similar (p=0.91). Hatch-date distributions were generated for the three sites using age-length keys. While Scartella cristata hatch throughout the year on the Texas coast, 48.2% of hatchings occurred between January and March with an additional 29.9% taking place in April and May (Fig.17). The majority of individuals (67.5%) captured in Galveston hatched between January and May (Fig. 18) with activity peaking in January and March. Hatch-date distributions were more protracted in Port Aransas, lasting from January to early July and peaking between April and June (Fig. 19). South Padre Island was the site of year-round, low level hatching activity that peaked October to March (Fig. 20). 20 % of individuals 15 10 5 0 JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC Fig. 17.

Scartella cristata grew at a rate of 0.25 (r 2 =0.69), 0.26 (r 2 =0.51), and 0.20 (r 2 =0.34) mm/day at Galveston, Port Aransas, and South Padre Island, respectively (Fig. 21). Growth rate among sites was statistically similar (p=0.252) and yielded a composite value of 0.2 (r 2 =0.44) mm/day.
