A Supplemental Sampling Method for Estuarine Ichthyoplankton with Emphasis on the Atherinidae

Estuaries, 1978
A three-stage sampler, filtering water from the 0–5 cm, 5–25 cm, and 25–45 cm microhorizons was tested during conventional ichthyoplankton studies. The sampler was as much as 240X more efficient than 0.5 m nets in the collection of larval atherinids.

Systematic Position of the Family Dentatherinidae in Relationship to Phallostethidae and Atherinidae

Copeia, 1987
Phallostethoidea and Atherinoidea to determine whether Dentatherinidae is a sister group of the phallostethids. Histological examination of the labial nodules in D. merceri reveals that they have calcified cores with an outer cartilagenous rim. Fibrous connective tissue is known to change to hyaline or calcified cartilage or bone in response to stress ...

Mississippi Silversides, Menidia audens (Atherinidae), Established in California

Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, 1970
Abstract Menidia audens were introduced into Upper and Lower Blue Lakes, and in Clear Lake, Lake County, during the fall of 1967, as a result of previous study indicating a high potential for this species as a biological control agent for aquatic midges, and as a forage species for game fishes.

Rediscovery of Labidesthes sicculus (Atherinidae) in Lake Texoma (Oklahoma-Texas)

The Southwestern Naturalist, 2002
species of falcons taking swifts in flight. Arnold (1942) observed a pair of large falcons thought to be peregrines (Falco peregrinus) working together to capture a white-throated swift. One falcon chased the swift, while the other dove on it from above and made the capture.

Tidal influence on the evolution of egg size in the grunions (Leuresthes, Atherinidae)

Environmental Biology of Fishes, 1978
The duration of natural in-beach-sand incubation of Gulf of California and California grunion embryos is dictated by the tidally-driven wave activity in their respective habitats. Analyses of these tidal regimes reveal that the incubation period can be three times longer on beaches of the California coast than on those of the northern Gulf.

Acanthocephalan infections in Atherina boyeri (Pisces: Atherinidae) from Tirso.

Parassitologia, 1991
Infections by the acanthocephalan Telosentis exiguus (Von Linstow, 1901) and another unknown acanthocephalan were studied in the sand smelt Atherina boyeri (Risso, 1810) from the Tirso River mouth in Sardinia. Only a few specimens of T. exiguus (1 male and 2 cystacanths) were found in the host digestive tract; some larvae of an unidentified ...

Physical mechanism for the extremely rapid twinkling by chromatophores of Atherinidae

Abstract Lymphatics and secondary circulation systems of teleost exist in the skin layer where chromatophore cells coexist. This work reveals that in the skin of three species of Atherinidae, an extremely rapid flashing iridophore acts as fluid pressure sensor and visualizes micro-circulations in the layer.
