First record of piscivory in ghost pipefishes (Teleostei, Solenostomidae) revealed by micro‐computed tomography

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ghost pipefishes (Solenostomidae) have been regarded as specialist crustacean feeders since the 1960s, an inference resting on two primary dietary accounts. We report the first documented evidence of piscivory in the family based on micro‐computed tomography (micro‐CT) examination of voucher specimens of Solenostomus snuffleupagus and S ...

More often, less each: Averaging can hide opposing trends in prey occurrence and consumer stomach content

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Averages of prey mass in fish stomachs are widely used to track changes in feeding. Yet, a mean over all stomachs is the exact product of two quantities—the frequency of occurrence of a prey and its mean content in the stomachs that contained it—which can move in opposite directions.

Social context shapes acoustic signalling in the territorial damselfish Stegastes fuscus

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acoustic communication plays an important role in social interactions in reef fishes, but how signals vary with behavioural context remains poorly understood for many species. We characterised the acoustic repertoire of the Brazilian damselfish Stegastes fuscus using synchronised underwater audio–video recordings and tested how sound features ...

Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

The habitat use of ariid catfishes in coral reefs in northeastern Brazil

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ariidae species occur across a wide range of habitats from freshwater to fully marine environments and are typically associated with soft‐bottom substrates. However, they are sometimes associated with hard‐bottom substrates such as coral reefs, but such association is poorly documented.
