Extreme site fidelity in long‐distance migratory shorebirds in Australia and potential implications for conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Site fidelity is the tendency for animals to repeatedly return to the same locations, either within or between years. Site fidelity enables animals to utilize knowledge of previously visited locations, including assessments of seasonal variations in health and mortality risks (e.g., predation), resource availability, and social benefits such ...

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...

The content of metals in metallothioneins of the bivalve mollusk Unio tumidus depen­ding on different in situ and in vitro exposures

Біологічні студії, 2019
Metallothioneins are low-molecular-weight proteins involved in homeostasis and detoxification of the transition metals. The bivalve mollusks are known to be the most effective filter feeding aquatic organisms that provide the accumulation of toxic metals

Insights into diet and niche separation in the context of prey availability between two sympatric whiprays in a tropical intertidal estuary

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasing evidence supports associations between various elasmobranch species and estuarine habitats, particularly during early life stages. However, with substantial knowledge gaps surrounding spatial habitat use and trophic ecology of estuary‐associated species in Australia, we cannot reliably assess the functional importance of these areas

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.

Nodular Lesions in the Pyloric Caeca of Sardinella aurita (Teleostei) Associated With the Cestode Anthobothrium sp. 1 Larvae (Platyhelminthes: Eucestoda) Off Tunisia, Mediterranean Sea

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Examination of round sardinella Sardinella aurita Valenciennes, 1847 (Clupeidae) from the Gulf of Tunis (Tunisia) revealed the first local and Mediterranean record of Anthobothrium sp. 1 sensu Jensen & Bullard, 2010 (Tetraphyllidea incertae sedis, Anthobothrium).

Not all rhodoliths need a bed–depositional mechanisms in shallow water Sporolithon nodosum rhodoliths from the Whangaparaoa peninsula (North Island, New Zealand)

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rhodoliths, formed by crustose coralline algae (CCA), are prominent components in carbonate platform deposits, contributing to the characteristic rhodalgal facies. Their formation is influenced by both biological and physical factors, and under specific conditions, they can accumulate, forming extensive rhodolith beds.
