Fig. 20. Hatch date distribution of <strong>Scartella</strong> <strong>cristata</strong> collected from South Padre<br />
Island, TX between July 2000 and August 2001. No estimates of mortality were<br />
incorporated into this dataset. Only individuals whose age was calculated at or less<br />
than 270 days were used to generate this distribution due to difficulty in reading daily<br />
growth increments beyond that age.
