This paper presents a dataset of 3D sagittal left otolith meshes from 339 individual red mullet ( Mullus barbatus ). These immature specimens were collected from 17 geographical areas covering the entire Mediterranean Sea. Measured biological parameters were: fish total length (TL ± 1 mm, range from...
