| Summary: | ro im rea bu f a (AC) (set to 120 mg l1 from preliminary trials) was used as a reference marker. All fish survived to the end of the experiment (33 days after marking), and their growth rates did not differ significantly between groups. Examination of frontal sections of otoliths under UV light microscopy revealed the yellowish and pink marks induced by ARS and AC, respectively. The quality of marks was equal for both AC and ARS immersions, at a 400 mg l1 concentration of ARS. ARS immersion has the double advantage of being an inexpensive and (probably) low-stress technique for marking the otoliths of large turbot juveniles. The application of ARS to large juveniles of other marine and freshwater species is suggested. |
