SOME COMPARATIVE BIOMETRIC ASPECTS IN ARISTICHTHYS NOBILIS AND HYPOPHTHALMICHTHYS MOLITRIX
The paper performs a comparative analysis of some biometric (total length, standard length, head length and caudal footstalks length) in two cultured cyprinids species grown in a controlled system, namely: Aristichthys nobilis (bighead carp) and Hypophthalmichthys molitrix (silver carp), of various...

| Summary: | The paper performs a comparative analysis of some biometric (total length,
standard length, head length and caudal footstalks length) in two cultured cyprinids
species grown in a controlled system, namely: Aristichthys nobilis (bighead carp)
and Hypophthalmichthys molitrix (silver carp), of various ages (starting with the
first up to the fourth growth summer).
The results obtained evidenced that, along the four growing stages, the
representatives of Hypophthalmichthys molitrix show slightly higher values than
those of Aristichthys genus for the total and standard bodily length, while for the
head length the situation is reversed. |
