Comparative functional tongue morphology in male omnivorous bogue (Boops boops) and carnivorous red porgy (Pagrus pagrus) in relation to feeding habits: A study using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and morphometric analysis
{{output}}
Understanding how feeding strategies influence oral morphology is fundamental to fish functional anatomy and trophic ecology. However, comparative data on tongue structure across dietary groups remain scarce in teleosts. This study examined tongue morphology i... ...
