“…Such measurements were used to calculate dimensionless shape indices (Tuset et al 2003b, Ponton 2006, Pothin et al 2006 which are independent from differences in otolith size (Tuset et al 2006, Lord et al 2012, which include (Fig. 2, Table 2): rectangularity, roundness, circularity, form-factor, ellipticity, and aspect ratio.…”

“…In other studies the classification accuracy obtained using otolith descriptors has varied between 70% and 95% (Tuset et al 2006), indicating that otolith morphology can be used for identifying and separating Gerreidae species and it is likely that an individual is better characterized by its two otoliths rather than by only one of them (see Morat et al 2012). Although it has been established that otolith shape is markedly species-specific (L'Abée-Lund 1988, L'Abée-Lund and Jensen 1993), it is also known that there are external driving forces acting on otoliths shape, whatever the species (Lord et al 2012) including: age, sex, size, food availability, substrate, water temperature, as well as other biological and environmental factors, linked to the species and geographical sites (Tuset et al 2003a).…”

“…Other contributions to this taxonomic problem in the family are the inadequate or incomplete descriptions of type materials, their poor current condition, loss of some of them, and lack of published taxonomic reviews (Yáñez-Arancibia 1980). Otoliths, the calcium carbonate structures located in fish inner ear, have been used as an auxiliary characteristic for identification of fishes in paleoichthyology (Nolf 1995) and stock recognition in fisheries management (Begg and Brown 2000, Tuset et al 2003a, Neves et al 2011, as well as a useful morphological character in taxonomy (Torres et al 2000a, Tuset et al 2006, systematics (Lombarte et al 1991, Smale et al 1995, Volpedo and Echeverría 2000, and food habits analysis (Radhakrishnan et al 2010). Otolith shape has long been known to be species-specific (L'Abée-Lund 1988) and less variable in growth than body growth, presumably because otoliths are internal organs contributing to audition and balance (Lord et al 2012), although its morphology can often vary geographically within a species (Lombarte and Lleonart 1993).…”

Otolith telah digunakan secara luas untuk kajian taksonomi, pertumbuhan, umur dan kekerabatan populasi ikan dari perairan yang berbeda. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan morfometrik otolith dan ukuran ikan lemuru serta karakteristikmorfologi otolith. Sampel dikumpulkan dari Selat Bali padaApril hingga Juli 2015. Pengujian statistik juga dilakukanmenggunakan uji-t berpasangan dua arah pada selang kepercayaan 99% untuk menentukan signifikansi hasil pengukuran morfometrik antara otolith kanan dan kiri. Hubungan parameter morfometrik dan ukuran ikan dianalisis menggunakan persamaan regresi linear dan eksponensial. Karakteristik morfologi otolith disajikan secara deskriptif dan dipertegas dengan nilai indeks-indeks bentuk menggunakan 6 deskriptor. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan pada pengukuran morfometrik otolith kiri dan kanan. Ukuran otolithmemiliki korelasi isometrik dengan pertumbuhan ikan dimana panjang otolith (OL) menjadi indikator terbaik untuk mengestimasi ukuran individu ikan. Otolith ikan lemuru memiliki ciri-ciri morfologi yang konsisten seperti halnya ikan dari genus Sardinella, khususnya sulcus acusticus, rostrum dan antirostrum. Nilai indeks bentuk yangmenegaskan ciri-ciri morfologi otolith juga dijelaskan.Otoliths widely used to determine taxonomy, growth, age and population structure of fishes. This study aims to determine the relationship between otolith morphometric to fish sizes and morphological characteristic of otolith. Data were collected from April to July 2015 in Muncar, Bali Strait. The statistical tests using two tails ttest paired sample also implemented to examine differentiation between left and right otolith measurement. The linear regression and exponential equation used to examine otolith morphometric parameter to fish size. Otolith morphological characteristics presented descriptively and emphasized using 6 descriptors of shape indices. The results showed no significant differences between left and right otolith. The otolith-fish size relationship was isometric. An OL (length of otolith) found as the best indicators to estimate the original size of fish. The otolith has specific morphological characteristics, in particular sulcus acusticus, rostrum and antirostrum were similar with other species from Sardinella genus. Shape indices also provided to confirm the morphological otolith.

“…Moreover, otoliths have been used in taxonomic (e.g. L' Abée-Lund and Jensen 1993;Ponton 2006;Tuset et al 2006) and phylogenetic studies in many groups of Teleostean fish (e.g. Gaemers 1983;Nolf 1985;Monteiro et al 2005).…”

Abstract.To check the suitability of otoliths for measuring biodiversity, the contour and shape of the sulcus acusticus of sagittal otoliths were described using geometric morphological analysis. Thirteen and fourteen points were used to define these structures respectively. Three current coastal fish assemblages of the north-western Mediterranean were selected for the present study. The results demonstrate that the relative warps generated in the geometric analysis explained both characteristics related to contour and the otolith sulcus. A comparative study with body fish shape using morphospaces and clusters revealed that otolith shape is a better variable for explaining the ecological structure of a fish assemblage. Moreover, three morphological indices (morphological richness (MR), morphological disparity and the morphogeometric index) were estimated from relative warps of otoliths and were compared with ecological, taxonomic, functional and morphological (from body shape) indices. MR increased with functional diversity and average taxonomic distinctness, reflecting the ecological and taxonomic character of otolith morphology. These findings suggest that otoliths could be a useful tool for studying the diversity of present and past fish assemblages.
