Abstract
AbstractThe Nurseryfish Kurtus gulliveri is found in estuarine and freshwater reaches of tropical rivers in northern Australia and southern New Guinea. Nurseryfish have been recorded in salinities ranging from freshwater to seawater (salinity 4‰) residence during their early life history, usually followed by a distinct transition into brackish (0.5–4‰) or fresh water (<0.5‰) later in life. No differences were discernible between the salinity histories of male and female Nurseryfish. Analysis of the relationship between the otolith core-to-edge distance and fish mass indicated tha...
