Assessment of Small‐Meshed Gillnets for Sustainable Fisheries in the Chobe River, Namibia
ABSTRACT Small‐meshed gillnets are restricted by the regulatory framework of the Namibian Inland Fisheries Act of 2003. This is mainly because smaller meshed nets are presumably selective towards juveniles of the large‐growing cichlid species. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the impacts of smaller meshed gillnets (<73 mm) on the fish stocks ...

ABSTRACT The mechanisms facilitating coexistence of cryptic species in sympatry have long puzzled ecologists. Cryptic species have nearly identical morphology and, therefore, would be presumed to have high niche overlap and potential for interspecific competition and competitive exclusion when resources are limited. Lowland rivers in South America have

Worldwide Invasions of Centrarchidae: The Dark Side of the Sunfish Family
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now
