  • Allometric parameters of Pterodoras granulosus (Valenciennes 1833) and its application to fossil assemblages

    Open AccessD Loponte, A Acosta et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2010References: 3

    By means of the analysis of 28 modern individuals of Pterodoras granulosus , a silurid of great importance in the archaeological assemblages of the Amazonas and Paraná basins, allometric equations based on the size of the spines have been derived, allowing the reconstruction of size profile and weight of the individuals recovered in fossil assemblages. These equations have been obtained from four different measures, three of them related to diffe…
