James C. Schneider’s scientific contributions

... LWRs in fish vary across species due to genetic factors, physiological changes such as spawning, and environmental variations, offering a useful metric for assessing overall fitness in marine habitats [27][28][29]. The present study found that G. longirostris (b = 3.23) and G. oyena (b = 3.19) exhibited positive allometric growth, indicating that these species become deeper-bodied as they grow. ...

... In a few species, less than five scales were studied due to the insufficient number of scales found within the given area on the available specimens that possess highly deciduous scales (Table 1). To make the permanent slides of the scales for studying their complete structures, we follow Schneider et al. (2000) and Hotos (2003) with some modifications. To prepare the scales, they are soaked in a beaker with warm water containing a few drops of 10 % KOH solution for half an hour to remove all dust particles and mucous from scales. ...
