Development and Improvement of Habitat Suitability Criteria for Instream Habitat Assessments Conducted in Support of Environmental Flows in Florida

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...

Extensive jaw mobility in suckermouth armored catfishes (Loricariidae) : a morphological and kinematic analysis of substrate scraping mode of feeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Loricariidae, or suckermouth armored catfishes, possess upper and lower jaws that are ventrally oriented and that bear teeth that touch the substrate from which algae and other food items are scraped.

EE2 and the Fish Brain: Age‐Dependent Impact of 17α‐Ethinylestradiol on Brain Cell Proliferation and Behavior in Sea Bass Larvae

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs), such as 17α‐ethinylestradiol (EE2), have raised concerns about their potential effects on aquatic organisms, particularly during early developmental stages. In this context, the study of behavioral disruption has gained considerable attention, as it may have consequences on individual fitness and ...

Biological invasions disrupt the relationship between size spectrum and trophic interactions in freshwater fish communities

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study shows that non‐native species alter the relationship between the size‐spectrum slope and the predator–prey mass ratio (PPMR) in freshwater fish communities by occupying distinct trophic niches. Abstract The size spectrum, which describes the relationship between abundance (or biomass) and body size, is an ataxic approach that can provide ...

Biology of the important species of catfishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Information on the biology of the tachysurid catfishes from Indian waters is very meagre, and in the following account an attempt is made to compile all the published accounts and unpublished data collected from various centres on the biology of ...
