Larvae of Dactylopsaron dimorphicum from oceanic islands in the southeast Pacific - Perciformes: Percophidae

Fishery Bulletin, July, 2003 by Mauricio F. Landaeta, Francisco J. Neira, Leonardo R. Castro

Acknowledgments

We would like to thank Paula Rosenberg and all the crew from the AGOR Vidal Gormaz for their help with sampling. We also thank Muneo Okiyama for his comments on identification of percophid larvae. This research was funded by the Comite Oceanografico Nacional (CONA), Chile, and forms part of a study on distribution patterns and larval accumulation around oceanic islands headed by Leonardo Castro.
