Spatial segregation and bycatch risk as potential drivers of population trends of wandering albatrosses at South Georgia

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Spatial segregation in at‐sea distribution is frequently observed in seabirds and can have important implications for conservation and management. Globally, many albatross and petrel populations are declining due to bycatch in fisheries. In South Georgia, the decrease in wandering albatrosses (Diomedea exulans) differs among breeding sites ...

Evidence for a fisher‐designed solution to manta and devil ray bycatch in tuna fisheries

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Bycatch in global tropical tuna purse seine fisheries represents a significant source of mortality for manta and devil rays (mobulids), which are globally threatened. Use of best handling and rapid release practices on purse seine vessels can substantially reduce mortality and improve vulnerability status for mobulids.

Fisher Behavior While Illegally Fishing for Atlantic Goliath Grouper (Epinephelus itajara, Epinephelinae) on the Amazon Continental Shelf, Brazil

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 1-13, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In 2002, the Brazilian government banned fishing for Goliath grouper, Epinephelus itajara (Lichtenstein, 1822), through 2007. This grouper was the first fish species targeted by a specific law in Brazilian environmental legislation. Grouper stocks showed no signs of recovery, so the ban was renewed multiple times since 2007. Official estimates
