Results of the jack mackerel subpopulation discrimination feasibility study
A report is made on the feasibility of discriminating subpopulations of jack mackerel, Trachurus symmetricus, off of the southern California and Baja California coast. Histochemical, morphometric, and meristic characters are compared from four samples of approximately 200 fish each taken from three areas. The data are analyzed for homogeneity by chi-square tests. Heterogeneity was found only in anal fin ray counts. Recommendations for a comprehensive study are made. (16pp.)
