Ecologie benthique de la Lagune Ebrié. Détermination du rapport de stabilité biocoenotique (RSB)

The 1912 Jaccard index modification led to the formulation of the Biocoenotic Stability Report (BSR). It is another similarity index based on the evaluation of two opposite ecological states affecting both compared biotopes.

Détermination de l'âge des machoirons (Chrysichtys nigrodigitatus): première estimation de la croissance

Study of C. nigrodigitatus slices showed evidence of seasonal formation related to rainfall and could be used for ageing. A first estimation of the growth has thus been made.

Croissance et détermination de l'âge par lecture d'écailles d'un poisson plat de Côte d'Ivoire, Cynoglossus canariensis (Steind. 1882)

Cynoglossus canariensis has a very rapid growth. The rate of the males is 0,36 and the female one is 0,32. The asymptotic size is 55,0cm for the females and 50,5cm for the males. Females and males younger than three years (40cm), which represent 90 per cent of the Côte d'Ivoire stock have a similar growth, so the average equation: Lt=53,5 (1-e -0,34(t+1)) will be used.
