“…Previous studies have examined a lot of fish resource stocks, such as Selar fish (Yellowtail Scad) (Sharfina, Boer, & Ernawati, 2014), Blowfish (Prahadina, Mennofatria, & Achmad, 2015), Layur fish (Largehead hairtail) (Agustina, Boer, & Fahrudin, 2016), and Peperek fish (Ponyfish) (Permatachani, Boer, & Kamal, 2017). Also, other research that had been conducted at PPP Labuan related to the biological aspects of fish such as Kuniran (Goldband Goatfish) (Sarumaha, Kurnia, & Setyobudiandi, 2017), and Mackerel (Oktavia & Hidayati, 2018). However, research on the analysis of morphological characters of Mackerel fish has never been done.…”
