Description
A study was made of selected species of the genus Haemulon to
evaluate the use of lepidology as a taxonomic tool for classifying
fishes. The data generated underscored certain phylogenetic trends
although species differences were ill-defined. A statistical technique was employed using a ctenius length-width ratio analysis. The
statistical inference that Haemulon chrysargyreum and H. striatum may
occupy a single infrageneric group supports previously established
evidence in this regard.
