X PRE-TRANSITION OTOLITH INCREMENTS 



Figure l.--The relationship between species mean pelagic larval duration, as 

 indicated by the number of pre-transition daily growth increments, and the 

 breadth of distribution of 115 species of Indo-Pacific coral-reef fishes. 

 Total pelagic durations are 0-3 days longer than increment counts, depending 

 on the family.
