Abstract

Abstract The accuracy of a new fecundity estimation technique that makes use of the equation for the volume of a sphere is evaluated. Fecundities for cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki), Tahoe suckers (Catostomus tahoensis), and tui chubs (Gila bicolor) were determined by actual counts (trout only), the gravimetric method, and a new sphere volume method. These estimates were statistically compared, and no significant differences found. The advantage of the new method is speed without a significant loss in accuracy.
