Refers to the number of larval increments marked on the otolith (for larvae and late-stage larvae all increments are larval increments). The first increment is marked at the core of the otolith and the final increment is marked at the outermost edge of the otolith (for larvae and late-stage larvae) or at the inside of the metamorphic band (for juveniles of Thalassoma bifasciatum).
