Preliminary estimates of growth and mortality in Nemipterus bathybus Snyder (Pisces: Nemipteridae) from the coast off Sarawak, South China Sea

Preliminary estimates of growth and mortality in Nemipterus bathybus Snyder (Pisces: Nemipteridae) from the coast off Sarawak, South China Sea

Length-frequency samples of Nemipterus bathybus Snyder (Pisces: Nemipteridae) obtained in a trawl sU11ley off the coast of Sarawak, East Malaysia (South China Sea) were separated into components using the Bhattacharya method. The mean length of adjacent components. assumed to represent year class...
