Nanga merit fishes assemblages and their feeding behaviors
This study was conducted to identify the diversity of freshwater fish and their teeding behavior in Nanga Merit. A total of 106 individuals comprising 15 families belonging to 5 families and II genera were caught. Cyprinidae and Siluridae were identified to be the dominant family representing 60.4%...
