Abstract
First data about biological structure of Sakhalin sole Limanda sakhalinensis on the northern shelf of the Sea of Okhotsk were obtained as results of researches provided in 2013 and 2019. It is found that the upper part of the shelf to the depth of 80 m is used by Sakhalin sole individuals with the average body length 16.1 cm, and the horizons of 171–200 m – by the 22.1 cm long individuals. The largest individuals with the length 30.5–35.0 cm were observed in catches from the lowest boundary of the area of the research. It was found that in terms of the northern part of the Sea of Okhotsk, males reach 28 cm and 206 g at the age of 18 years, and females – 35 cm and 408 g at the age of 21 years. With a general numerical predominance of males, they often (73.4%) were in catches among individuals with the body length <21 cm and younger than 8 years. The older the males, the lower their relative number (to 42.1%), and 3 last size-age groups consisted of females only. Compared to other locations occupied by Sakhalin sole, the the north-western shelf is one of the most wide; the body length and the age structure demonstrated there has maximum similarity to Sakhalin sole in the eastern part of the Sea of Okhotsk.
