Title: Squalus Cubensis data in .xlsx file
Status: Completed
Abstract:

Reproductive data from Squalus cubensis (Cuban dogfish) were opportunistically collected from 2005-2012. Data include those necessary to examine reproductive cycle, fecundity, gestation period, and size at maturity for the species.

This is a multi tabbed .xlsx file.

In general each tab in this file is represented by a different .csv file, with the only difference being that in the .csv files, csv files containing data on males do not have the columns only to do with females while csv files containing data on females do not have have columns only having to do with males.
