Table 2 Population-size estimates from Capture-Mark-Recapture (CMR) or Capture-per-Unit-Area depletion (CPUA) method. In the CMR, adult fish were marked with either visible implant elastomer tags (CMR-e) or by fin-clipping (CMR-f).
From: Longitudinal demographic study of wild populations of African annual killifish
