Abstract
An electronic bacterial colony counter was used to count eggs of two clupeid species. Accuracy was evaluated by using regression techniques to model the relation between actual number of eggs and average machine count. When the data were log10 transformed, both models were significant (P < 0.001; r 2 ≥ 0.94). The method is accurate and fast.Keywords
