| Study on morphometric characteristics of Otolith in Lactarius lactarius of the Persian Gulf were examined in this research. Sampling lasted from September 2011 to December 2012. During this period 42 specimens were cut and studied. Trawling time was 2-2½ hours and trawling depth was considered as 10-100 m daily. Catching operations was done within 24 hours. Sampling was done in Khouzestan and Bushehr waters. All the otoliths were extracted to verify them. Investigation of otolith morphometric characteristics (length, breadth, weight, perimeter and area) were conducted. The length-weight relationships showed that the growth pattern was isometric. |
