Genetic structure of the sea-bob shrimp (Xiphopenaeus kroyeri Heller, 1862; Decapoda, Penaeidae) along the Brazilian southeastern coast

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2005
The sea-bob shrimp, Xiphopenaeus kroyeri, is one of the most important economic marine resources along the entire Brazilian coast. Nevertheless, despite its economic importance, no studies have examined the population genetics of this species.

Reservoir Effect of the Southern and Southeastern Brazilian Coast [PDF]

Radiocarbon, 2005
A regional marine reservoir correction (ΔR) of 33±24 14C yr for southern Brazil was obtained from 6 marine shell samples collected in the states of Santa Catarina and Paraná. This work also presents a ΔR estimation of 8±17 14C yr for the southern and southeastern Brazilian coast from the states of Rio de Janeiro to Santa Catarina, obtained by including

The ‘ghost of past fishing’: small-scale fisheries and conservation of threatened groupers in subtropical islands

, 2021
Groupers are highly targeted and vulnerable reef fishes. The effects of fishing pressure on the density of three reef fishes were investigated in 21 islands outside (n=15) and inside (n=6) a Marine Protected Area (MPA) at the Paraty Bay, Brazilian ...

Fishers’ knowledge about fish trophic interactions in the southeastern Brazilian coast [PDF]

Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine, 2015
Data derived from studies of fishers' local ecological knowledge (LEK) can be invaluable to the proposal of new studies and more appropriate management strategies. This study analyzed the fisher's LEK about trophic relationships of fishes in the southeastern Brazilian coast, comparing fishers' LEK with scientific knowledge to provide new hypotheses.The

Integrative description of a new species of Acanthodasys Remane, 1927 (Gastrotricha, Macrodasyida, Thaumastodermatidae) based on four distinct morphological techniques and molecular data [PDF]

, 2020
The number of undescribed animal species is still very high, in particular among the marine meiofaunal taxa. For these invertebrates, external and internal morphological information are often scarce and species delimitation and identification is a real

Protodrilus (Protodrilidae, Annelida) from the southern and southeastern Brazilian coasts [PDF]

Helgoland Marine Research, 2013
Protodrilus corderoi, Protodrilus ovarium n. sp. and Protodrilus pythonius n. sp. are reported from beaches in southern and southeastern Brazil and described combining live observations with light and electron scanning microscopy studies. Protodrilus corderoi is redescribed from new collections at the type locality, and a neotype for the species is ...
