Abstract:This study investigated the biology of <i>Sardinella</i> <i>aurita</i> (flat Sardinella) and <i>S.</i> <i>maderensis</i> (round Sardinella) at James Town in Ghana. A total of 40 round and flat Sardinella samples each were evaluated each month. The results showed significant difference between round and flat Sardinella with respect to intestinal weight (p=0.020), liver weight (p=0.002) and body weight (p=0.005). Intestinal weight of the round and flat Sardinella r… Show more
