Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Monogeneans are among the most problematic ectoparasites in finfish aquaculture. Plant‐derived compounds have been widely explored as therapeutic agents, yet their efficacy and safety have not been quantitatively synthesized across studies. This study provides a meta‐analysis of plant‐based treatments against monogeneans, integrating 453 in ...

Heart structure in the Amazonian teleost Arapaima gigas (Osteoglossiformes, Arapaimidae) [PDF]
Journal of Anatomy, 2018 AbstractThe fish heart ventricle has varied morphology and may have a specific morpho‐functional design in species adapted to extreme environmental conditions. In general, the Amazonian ichthyofauna undergoes constant variations in water temperature, pH and oxygen saturation, which makes these species useful for investigations of cardiac morphology ...

The catch of the day: The shortcomings of promoting sustainable seafood consumption in Peru
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.This study investigates the meaning and application of “catch of the day” in Peru by analyzing 233 news articles and genetically testing 43 fish samples from restaurants. Results show that media frequently use the term as a vague marketing phrase, while genetic testing reveals a 60% mislabeling rate. These findings suggest that “catch of the day” lacks

Productive performance of Arapaima gigas in temperate climate ponds
Revista de Investigaciones Veterinarias del Perú, 2023 The study monitored the productive performance of the paiche (Arapaima gigas) for 30 months under temperate climate conditions on the Central Coast of Peru. After 40 days of acclimatization and with 80% survival, the fish (n: 32, weight: 44 ± 34 g, length: 17.6 ± 4.9 cm) were transferred to a greenhouse pool (8 fish/m3) and fed at 5 % of their body ...

Implications for Osmorespiratory Compromise by Anatomical Remodeling in the Gills of Arapaima gigas [PDF]
The Anatomical Record, 2013 ABSTRACTThe gill structure of the Amazonian fish Arapaima gigas, an obligatory air breather, was investigated during its transition from water breathing to the obligatory air breathing modes of respiration. The gill structure of A. gigas larvae is similar to that of most teleost fish; however, the morphology of the gills changes as the fish grow.
