Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of aquatic sciences, and specifically, is a method for measuring the individual growth and sexual maturity of the squid in the South China Sea based on the shape of the horny jaw. Background technique
[0002] Sthenoteuthisoualaniensis, commonly known as "Red squid and Southern squid", belongs to Ommastrephidae and Sthenoteuthis. It is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical waters of the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean. It has a complex population structure, a large migration range, and abundant resources. , Is the most important economic cephalopod resource in the South my country Sea. The estimated potential resource exceeds 283,000 tons and the development potential is huge. The horny jaw is the main feeding organ of the squid. It has the characteristics of stable structure, corrosion resistance, and large information storage. It is an important material for studying the age and growth of cephalopods, feeding ecol...
