MASS MORTALITIES OFLATES(PISCES: CENTROPOMIDAE) IN LAKE ALBERT

Journal of the Limnological Society of Southern Africa, 1976
SUMMARY Parker attributed a mass mortality of Lates in Lake Albert to the shock effect of an earthquake which occurred at the same time. A consideration of the limnology of the lake and of limitations to the ability of fish to adjust their buoyancy suggests that the immediate cause of the mortality could have been loss of hydrostatic equilibrium when ...

Study of age and growth in lates niloticus (centropomidae) at Khartoum

Hydrobiologia, 1967
1. The vertebrae are the most reliable part of the skeleton for the determination of the age ofLates niloticus. 2. A correlation between the age and size of the fish is recorded. 3. On the average, females are longer and heavier than males of equal ages. 4.

Winter Scale Rings in Lates niloticus (Pisces: Centropomidae) from Lake Chad

Nature, 1965
THE formation of scale rings in tropical fishes has usually been ascribed to some form of physiological stress producing a temporary check in the growth-rate. Holden1 thus proved that in Tilapia spp. from Lake Victoria ring formation is associated with spawning; Johnels2 and Daget3 both correlated the annual rings which occur in many West African ...

Ovarian germinal epithelium and folliculogenesis in the common snook,Centropomus undecimalis (Teleostei: Centropomidae)

Journal of Morphology, 2000
The ovarian germinal epithelium in the common snook, Centropomus undecimalis, is described. It consists of epithelial and prefollicle cells that surround germ cells, either oogonia or oocytes, respectively. The germinal epithelium borders a body cavity, the ovarian lumen, and is supported by a basement membrane that also separates the epithelial ...

Molecular data indicate the presence of a novel species of Centropomus (Centropomidae – Perciformes) in the Western Atlantic

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2014
Centropomus undecimalis is distributed in the coastal waters of the western Atlantic between North Carolina and São Paulo, although very little is known of the genetic structure of its populations. Here, 148 C. undecimalis samples were obtained from six sites in the southwestern Atlantic, representing the Brazilian distribution of this species ...

Paracentric Inversions Differentiate the Conservative Karyotypes in Two Centropomus Species (Teleostei: Centropomidae).

Cytogenetic and genome research, 2019
Centropomus is the sole genus of the Centropomidae family (Teleostei), comprising 12 species widely distributed throughout the Western Atlantic and Eastern Pacific, with 6 of them occurring in the Western Atlantic in extensive sympatry. Their life history and phylogenetic relationships are well characterized; however, aspects of chromosomal evolution ...

The taxonomy of East African Nile Perch, Lates spp. (Perciformes, Centropomidae)

Journal of Fish Biology, 1991
The type specimens of Lates albertianus, L. macrophthalmus, L. niloticus rudolfianus and L. niloticus longispinis are contrasted with each other, with riverine L. niloticus niloticus and with a collection of Nile Perch from Lake Victoria. Contrary to current belief L. niloticus niloticus was found to differ both from L.

Early development of fat snook, Centropomus parallelus (Poey 1860) (Teleostei, Centropomidae) from Southeastern Brazil.

Zootaxa, 2015
Early development of fat snook, Centropomus parallelus (Poey 1860), is described based on embryos. and larvae obtained from rearing experiments and from specimens caught in the field, in Cananéia, southeastern Brazil, during December 1999-January 2000. Larvae of common snook, C.
