SlotLim is a new harvest control rule that produces catch advice for vertebrate and invertebrate fisheries managed by harvest slot limits. The methodology is data‐limited, requiring a few years of fishery‐dependent data and life‐history information. The ‘SlotLim’ R package is available via CRAN. Abstract Minimum landing sizes are a fisheries management

The scarcity of functional females in wild Centropomus undecimalis populations limits broodstock development for aquaculture. This study evaluated feminization of this protandrous hermaphroditic teleost under different salinity conditions using 17β‐estradiol (E2), administered orally to juveniles and via intramuscular implants to adults.

Measuring juvenile habitat quality for fishes and invertebrates
ABSTRACT Identifying the role of marine and estuarine habitats in supporting fish and invertebrate populations during vulnerable juvenile life stages is essential to achieve effective conservation and fisheries management. There remains general agreement that: (i) the quality of juvenile habitat is best measured as the contribution of juveniles to ...

Beyond the Binary: Controlling Natural Sex‐Change in Hermaphroditic Fishes
ABSTRACT Sex‐change in hermaphroditic fishes is a complex but natural biological phenomenon that has significant implications for aquaculture fingerling production, selective breeding, and grow‐out. Understanding the physiological, endocrinological, and molecular pathways underlying hermaphroditism in fishes offers unique opportunities to manipulate ...

What acoustic telemetry can and cannot tell us about fish biology
Abstract Acoustic telemetry (AT) has become ubiquitous in aquatic monitoring and fish biology, conservation, and management. Since the early use of active ultrasonic tracking that required researchers to follow at a distance their species of interest, the field has diversified considerably, with exciting advances in both hydrophone and transmitter ...

Selection of candidate fish species for farming in the bay of Guaratuba, Brazil
An inventory of the maximum length (ML) reached by 57 species of fishes living in the mangrove of Guaratuba, Brazil, was undertaken with an aim to evaluate the relationship between the ecosystem and the size of individuals. For each of these species, the

Use of hatchery‐raised fish in validation of daily age estimates for juvenile Common Snook
Abstract Objective We investigated the validity of daily age estimates for juvenile Common Snook Centropomus undecimalis by using sectioned and sanded sagittal otoliths. Methods Common Snook have a protracted spawning season, which is problematic for validation of daily ages because a hatch date—needed to calculate age—cannot be reasonably assigned ...
