Otolith fingerprints reveal stock discrimination of Sperata seenghala inhabiting the Gangetic river system

Variations in elemental concentrations of otoliths were used to study the probable stock(s) of Sperata seenghala in the Gangetic river system. Fifteen trace elements from whole sagittal otoliths were analysed using inductively coupled plasma–atomic emission spectrometry. Strontium, barium, lithium,...
