Relationships between fish and otolith dimensions of Epinephelus summana (Forsskål, 1775) and Cephalopholis argus (Schneider, 1801) from the Egyptian Red Sea coast
Abstract:Egyptian Red Sea Otolith morphology analysis is one of the main tools used for fish or stock identification. Moreover, it is used in the stomach content studies for the identification of prey fish and their size according to the relationship between fish and otolith sizes. In the present study, the relationships between fish length and otolith morphological dimensions were investigated for Epinephelus summana (Forsskål, 1775) and Cephalopholis argus (Schneider, 1801) (family: Serranidae). A total of 170 E. sum… Show more
