Molecular and Morphological Identification and Seasonal Distribution of Eggs of Four Decapterus Fish Species in the Northern South China Sea: A Key to Conservation of Spawning Ground

Molecular and Morphological Identification and Seasonal Distribution of Eggs of Four Decapterus Fish Species in the Northern South China Sea: A Key to Conservation of Spawning Ground

Although species of Decapterus form important pelagic fisheries in the northern South China Sea, information on their spawning grounds is limited because identification of fish eggs based on their morphology is difficult. We identify eggs of four Decapterus species (D. macrosoma, D. maruadsi, D. mac...
