Does Mugil liza Valenciennes 1836 (Teleostei: Mugiliformes) occur in Argentinean waters?

The present paper deals with the occurrence of two nominal species of Mugil (Mugil liza Valenciennes 1836 and Mugil platanus Günther 1880) in Argentinean waters. The investigation is necessary to clarify the di stribution of these species before any regional study on the biology can be made. In Arge...
