Table 2. Average size of male and female tiger sharks captured by research fishing in Hawaii 1993–2013.
Male | Female | F | df | p | |
Total length | 248.5 (84)[163] | 296.8 (84)[251] | 33.0 | 1, 412 | p<0.001 |
Fork length | 201.5 (73)[164] | 243.1 (73)[249] | 32.3 | 1, 411 | p<0.001 |
Precaudal length | 183.2 (68)[164] | 220.9 (68)[253] | 30.7 | 1, 415 | p<0.001 |
Numbers in parentheses are standard deviations, numbers in square brackets are sample sizes. Anova test statistics (F) for the comparison of mean male and female sizes are given along with degrees of freedom (df) and probability values (p).
