Morphology of sagitta, lapillus and asteriscus of Patagonian Genidens barbus [PDF]
Otoliths are calcium carbonate structures, deposited as aragonite, located in the inner ear of bony fish. In recent years, they have become a useful tool for the determination of fish species, trophic content, age studies, and the identification of fish
