摘要: The recently discovered freshwater eel species of the Luzon mottled eel, Anguilla luzonensis, has only been found in very limited area at tip Northern Philippines. Here we investigated early life history A. luzonensis for first time to help understand its larval dispersal pattern western North Pacific, and compared it celebesensis data from previ- ous studies. Genetically-identified glass eels collected northern Island January February 2009 (n=3 8, respectively) were used study age recruitment this using otolith microstructure. lepto- cephalus stage was 129.6±10.7 days (mean±s. d.; range, 113 146), followed by 18.4±3.7 (13 25) metamorphosing 17.6±5.1 (7 23) stages. These specimens be hatched between August September 2008. A previous on a small number leptocephali offshore reported that hatching dates March, thus spawning season is suggested span least half year.
