ABSTRACT:
Nike fish are juveniles of amphidromous gobies species known for their intricate morphological features and high ecological significance found in the Gulf of Tomini, Indonesia. This study aimed to investigate the species composition and morphometric characteristics of Nike schools in the waters of Marisa District, Pohuwato Regency, Gorontalo Province. A total of 5.223 individuals were collected from four catch efforts by fishers. Samples were observed and grouped based on melanophore patterns for species identification, and morphometric measurements were performed using Image-J software application. The results show that there were 6 species of Nike in the schoolings, namely: Sicyopterus longifilis, Belobranchus segura, Stiphodon semoni, Belobranchus belobranchus, Sicyopterus parvei, and Sicyopterus cynocephalus. Apparently S. longifilis 98,24% dominating the schools. These findings provide valuable insights into the population structure and biodiversity of Nike fish, which are essential for their conservation efforts, management, and future studies.
