Slow growth rates of common carp Cyprinus carpio in English catch‐and‐release fisheries are related to high stock densities

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hatchery‐reared, domesticated strains of common carp Cyprinus carpio (‘carp’) are regularly used to enhance angler catch rates in many catch‐and‐release (C&R) lentic fisheries. These carp are usually selected for specific traits (e.g. stress resilience, high probability of angling capture) and are often stocked at relatively small sizes into ...

The dawn of phylogenetic research on Neotropical fishes: a commentary and introduction to Baskin (1973), with an overview of past progress on trichomycterid phylogenetics

Neotropical Ichthyology
A review is made of the impact of the landmark Ph. D. Thesis of Jonathan N. Baskin from 1973 on the development of the phylogenetics of catfishes and some of its main subgroups and on neotropical ichthyology in general.

Trophic niche overlap between native and non‐native fishes in central Anatolian lakes, Türkiye

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Anatolian region of Türkiye exhibits exceptionally high freshwater fish diversity and endemism and is increasingly exposed to the introduction of non‐native taxa. We examined the diet composition, prey selectivity and interspecific dietary overlap among eight native and five non‐native fish species across seven lakes in Central ...

Black Carp Mylopharyngodon piceus reproductive development and maturation in the Mississippi River basin

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Black Carp Mylopharyngodon piceus are native to most major east Asian drainages and are internationally cultured for use as a food‐fish or a biological control for molluscs. We describe the reproductive biology of Black Carp from the growing invasive population in the Mississippi River basin through examination of incidental commercial ...

A new Centromochlus Kner, 1858 (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae: Centromochlinae) from the transition between Amazon floodplain and Guiana shield, Brazil

Neotropical Ichthyology
Species of Centromochlus are widely distributed in South America, with records for major basins such as the Amazon and Orinoco, rivers draining the Guiana Shield such as the Essequibo, Courantyne (Corantijn), Coppename, Maroni, and Oyapock, and Brazilian

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.

Stomach contents of the catfishes Osteogeneiosus militaris (Linnaeus, 1758) and Arius maculatus (Thunberg, 1792) in the Songkhla Lake [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2005
The catfishes, Osteogeneiosus militaris and Arius maculatus, were collected from Songkhla Lake, southern Thailand at two sites that varied in the extent to which they were exposed to higher salinity (the Outer Songkhla Lake) and which were exposed to ...

Food selectivity and grazing responses of the Lawnmower Blenny (Salarias fasciatus) to nutrient enrichment and ammonia exposure

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Nutrient enrichment can alter the nutritional quality of the epilithic algal matrix (EAM) and modify the feeding environment of herbivorous and detritivorous reef fishes. However, wastewater inputs can also elevate ammonia concentrations, which may disrupt fish physiological processes, yet the effects of ammonia exposure on grazing activity ...

Melanoma and Other Melanistic Lesions in Brown Bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus From Waterbodies in the Northeastern United States and Canada: Identification of Risk Factors

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Melanistic lesions, including non‐raised black areas due to proliferations of melanocytes and melanomacrophages in the dermis and epidermis, as well as raised black areas consistent with melanoma, are described in brown bullhead (BBH) Ameiurus nebulosus from three water bodies in the northeastern United States and Quebec, Canada.
