Distribution and abundance of Dormitator latifroms (Richardson) larvae (Pisces: Eliotridae) in the natural protected area “estero El Salado” in Jalisco, Mexico

This study presents an analysis of a spatial and temporal variation of the distribution and abundance of larvae of Dormitator latifroms (Richardson 1845) in the natural protected area known as “estero El Salado”, in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico. Eight diurnal zooplankton tows were conducted seas...

Eight diurnal zooplankton tows were conducted seasonally from spring to winter, 2001.
