Reproductive Biology of Sardinella sp. (Sardinella aurita and Sardinella maderensis) in the South of Morocco.

Background And Objective: Sardinella sp. has gained much attention lately because of its biomass increase, which might be the result of climatic changes occurring across the Atlantic sea. Little information is known about reproduction of these species particularly in the Moroccan Atlantic area.
