Multivariate approaches to determine the relationship between fish assemblage structure and environmental variables in Karatoya River, Bangladesh

Karatoya River is an important freshwater system that is home to different types of fish species. In the present study, the seasonal abundance and diversity indices of fish assemblage and their relationship with physicochemical parameters were studied. Fifty-four fish species were recorded from four...

Description
Summary:Karatoya River is an important freshwater system that is home to different types of fish species. In the present study, the seasonal abundance and diversity indices of fish assemblage and their relationship with physicochemical parameters were studied. Fifty-four fish species were recorded from four stations for 12 months. The highest number of fish was recorded during the post-monsoon season and the lowest was recorded in the monsoon season. Analysis of similarity evidenced a significant difference ( P
