Fish fauna of the Red River, Southeast Asia: Indictors and implications for planning fish species preserves
The composition of fish fauna in the Red River basin was analyzed based on 288 fish species belonging to 138 genera, 53 families (subfamilies), and 14 orders, using the Traditional Fish Fauna Analysis (TFFA) and the Value of Fish Fauna Presence (VFFP) methods.The TFFA and VFFP methods allow for a ranking of the taxa Binoculars according to commonal
