Title On the terminology for phases and stages in the life history of teleostean fishes
 
Creator Jones, S
 
Subject Demersal Fishes
Eggs and Larvae
 
Description The terminology generally used for describing the different stages of the life history of
teleostean fishes is discussed and suggestions are given for categorizing it under phases and
stages. Four phases, viz, embryonic, larval, juvenile and adult are recognized. Of these,
the embryonic phase is divided into precleavage, cleavage, shield and postshield stages, and
the larval phase is divided into prolarval and postlarval stages. Juveniles and adult phases
are not subdivided but the latter could be grouped under different year classes.
