Journal of fish biology 2022 v.100 no.3 pp. 843-846
ISSN:
0022-1112
Subject:
bioluminescence; fish; wavelengths
Abstract:
... Biofluorescence has been observed in a variety of fishes, but is rare in deep‐sea environments where light from the surface cannot reach. Here, we document biofluorescence in an oceanic anglerfish, the Pacific footballfish. Green biofluorescence was observed in small spots on the distal surface of the esca. While the wavelength of bioluminescent light is unknown for this species, it is possible th ...

benthic ecosystems; community structure; fish; fish communities; habitat preferences; habitats; littoral zone; species abundance; Greece
Abstract:
... The shallow littoral zone is under a variety of environmental drivers and anthropogenic pressures. As these factors are highly dynamic, they may affect the distribution and behaviour of littoral fish. The present study investigates the effect of the time of day and the benthic habitat type on the shallow littoral fish community. Diel variations in total fish abundance, community composition, speci ...

Abstract:
... This study investigated the measurements of energy density and bioenergetic modelling for a pelagic ray, Mobula eregoodoo, to estimate its relative allocation to various bodily processes and especially reproduction. The data revealed M. eregoodoo uses up to 21.0% and 2.5% of its annual energy budget on growth and reproduction, respectively. During pregnancy, females depleted energy reserves in the ...

Abstract:
... The broadnose sevengill shark, Notorynchus cepedianus (Péron, 1807), is a large marine top predator in temperate coastal ecosystems. Some aspects of its life history have been determined, but its growth pattern is yet to be fully understood. The authors used a multi‐modelling approach and a sensitivity test to estimate growth parameters from young‐of‐year (YOY) length data collected off San Antoni ...

Abstract:
... In this study, ballan wrasse Labrus bergylta were subjected to either a conventional 1‐day or an extended 5‐day respirometry protocol. Additionally, in the 5‐day protocol the fish were subjected to a 12 h light–dark cycle to assess the effects of photoperiods on metabolic rates (ṀO₂). Diurnal patterns in routine and resting ṀO₂ were not observed, suggesting that circadian rhythms in metabolism lar ...

Abstract:
... There is growing interest in the phenology of juvenile Salmo trutta and evidence of significant downstream migration during the autumn in some anadromous populations. The present study used acoustic telemetry to examine the phenology of potamodromous trout parr across a region encompassing two large lake catchments. One hundred sixty‐seven trout parr were tagged in late summer across four lake tri ...

Abstract:
... The estuarine croaker (Pseudotolithus elongatus, Sciaenidae) has long‐term socio‐economic and ecological significance in tropical and subtropical regions of the world, but little has been reported on the population demographics of this species. In this study, a traditional morphometric approach was used to test the hypothesis that island samples are morphologically distinctive from adjoining estua ...

Abstract:
... Ecological studies on the critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla often incorporate stable isotope analysis that typically uses dorsal muscle sampled from euthanised eels. To minimise the lethal sampling of imperilled populations, fin tissue and/or epidermal mucus can provide non‐lethal alternatives to muscle. The results here indicate that δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N values of both eel fin and muc ...

Abstract:
... The lamprey genus Exomegas Gill, 1883, was erected on the assumption that it was distinguishable from Geotria Gray, 1851, by possessing three rather than two cusps on the transverse lingual lamina (TLL). Based on literature review and examination of holotypes and new data, the authors reaffirm that the TLL of Geotria possesses two or three cusps in the adult stage. The reduction or disappearance o ...

Abstract:
... South Brazil's archaeological coastal sites (shellmounds and middens) show a diverse collection of shark faunal remains, some of which belong to species considered rare nowadays for the region. However, shark archaeological remains identification in this region has been historically insufficient and prone to mistakes. This study identified shark fauna and estimated body size (total length) present ...

Abstract:
... In chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) homed to the Sanriku region, Japan, most of the fish are matured in bays and spawn near river mouths in coastal short rivers; therefore, their upriver migration is extremely short, but their behavioural characteristics have remained unknown. Upriver migration in the Otsuchi River, a typical coastal river, was evaluated from behavioural and physiological aspects. ...

Abstract:
... Fisheries biologists have been hesitant to use passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags in small‐bodied fishes (40–200 mm TL) such as darters (Percidae: Etheostomatinae) because of the fishes' size and potential effect on swimming performance. The authors used constant acceleration trials to evaluate the swimming performance of Arkansas darters Etheostoma cragini in control (no incision or tag), ...

Abstract:
... Leakiness of the swimbladder wall of teleost fishes must be prevented to avoid diffusional loss of gases out of the swimbladder. Guanine incrustation as well as high concentrations of cholesterol in swimbladder membranes in midwater and deep‐sea fish has been connected to a reduced gas permeability of the swimbladder wall. On the contrary, the swimbladder is filled by diffusion of gases, mainly ox ...

Abstract:
... Wild capture can be stressful for fish. Stress has the potential to induce mortality in released unwanted catches or negative flesh quality consequences in retained ones. Such effects compromise sustainable natural resource management and industry profitability. Mitigating stress during capture is therefore desirable. Biological indicators of stress can objectively inform fishers as to the functio ...
