Abstract Otolith morphology and morphometrics have been widely used to investigate taxonomic distinctions and infer potential relationships among fish species. This study focuses on the sagittal otolith shape and morphological traits of three Nemipterus species (N. zysron, N. randalli, and N. bipunctatus), employing size parameters, shape descriptors, Elliptic Fourier Analysis (EFA), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
Abstract The present investigation aimed to document and analyze the diversity of scale characteristics in three Nemipterus species; N. zysron (12.2–18.5 cm SL), N. randalli (13–18 cm SL), and N. japonicus (8.5–17.2 cm SL) collected from the Egyptian Red Sea near Hurghada. Assessing interspecific differences in scale morphology, geometry, and morphometry provides valuable insights for taxonomy and stock identification.
