Larval and early juvenile development of silver therapon, Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Terapontidae), reared in mesocosms

This work was supported by SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department under the Study code: Nr-04- F2010B. We express our gratitude to Miss Julie Andrea P. Anano, Mr Nemencio B. Olorvida and the student interns from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (Santa Mesa, Manila) for their assistance during the study.
