Dynamics of rabbitfish (Siganus sutor) spawning aggregations in southern Kenya..

This study was designed to verify S. sutor spawning aggregation sites and behaviour using Domeier’s (2012) criteria. We also sought to determine periodicity and duration of aggregation formation, fish residency times at aggregation sites and spawning site fidelity to provide a basic understanding of the spatial and temporal dynamics of S. sutor spawning aggregations to aid in the development of conservation and fisheries management measures.
