Shape Analysis of Otoliths of the Round goby, Neogobius melanostomus (Gobiiformes, Gobiidae), from the Black Sea Basin
This study aims to assess the round goby Neogobius melanostomus stocks discriminability based on the shape of its otoliths. Recent otolith-shape-based species and stock discrimination studies have been using otoliths’ contours in sagittal plane and we are following this approach. We hypothesized exi...
