Evaluating the surrounding physical habitat for Thynnichthys thynnoides's spawning areas using a visual-based habitat assessment at Rui River, Perak

This study was conducted to evaluate the physical habitat of spawning areas for Thynnicthys thynnoides (T. thynnoides) in the Rui River, Gerik, Perak. Five sampling sites of Rui River's floodplain were chosen. Sampling was conducted between May and October 2015 by using a visual-based habitat a...
