Overview

Population variations in pseudotolithus elongatus across locations in Nigeria, indicating distinct morphometric traits.

Key Points

  • The study found a significant morphological variation in the Pseudotolithus elongatus populations.
  • Morphometric traits such as snout length and body depth were crucial in distinguishing the populations.
  • Utilizing geometric morphometrics, the study achieved an overall classification accuracy of 89.8%.
  • These findings may inform management and conservation strategies for the economically important species.
