An Analysis of Morphometric Characters of Greenland Halibut ( Reinhardtius hippoglossoides ) in the Northwest Atlantic Using a Multivariate Analysis of Covariance
Eleven morphometric characters were measured on samples of Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) from eight different areas of high Greenland halibut abundance throughout the Northwest Atlantic from Davis Strait to the northern Grand Bank. These data were then analysed using a multivariat...
