    Резюме

    Fourier shape analysis was used to study the morphology of sagittal otoliths of 383 Dissostichus mawsoni from 3 Subareas using two statistical methods. Stepwise discriminant analysis showed a classification accuracy of 73.19%. Principal component analysis revealed the accumulated contribution rate of 29 principal components was 72.45%. These findings demonstrate that Fourier analysis of otolith morphology cannot distinguish the stock populations of D. mawsoni between Subareas 48.1, 48.6 and 88.1.
