Intra‐annual energy density cycles of spring‐ and fall‐spawning Atlantic herring Clupea harengus reveal different reproductive allocation tactics

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlantic herring Clupea harengus are total spawners that exhibit a large degree of reproductive plasticity and have substantial intra‐annual variation in their energetic condition. Recent research suggests that the species may be declining in energetic condition in the northwest Atlantic Ocean from the few historical records, but comparisons ...

Male‐territory‐visiting polygamy in the sand‐dwelling goby Fusigobius inframaculatus (Gobiidae) inhabiting reef caves

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract We conducted an observational field survey of the innerspotted sandgoby Fusigobius inframaculatus on reefs of Kuchierabu‐jima Island, southern Japan, to investigate its mating system. Individuals of the goby maintained home ranges on sandy bottoms within rocky caves or beneath overhangs that served as shelters. Of 34 identified individuals, 32%

A new species of inseminating catfish of the genus Tympanopleura (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae) from the Ituxi River, Amazon River basin, northern Brazil, revealed by integrative taxonomy

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new species of the genus Tympanopleura is described from the Iquiri River, a tributary of the Ituxi River, a right‐bank tributary to the Purus River, Amazon River, northern Brazil. The new species is distinguished from all its congeners by a combination of features, such as the presence of an intensely pigmented square‐shaped blotch on the ...

An investigation into the diet of elephant fish (Callorhinchus milii) in the waters of Aotearoa/New Zealand

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chondrichthyans (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are increasingly understood to be an important part of ocean ecosystems, but their ecological role is unclear. Callorhinchus milii (elephant fish) is a chimaera species endemic to Aotearoa/New Zealand and southern Australian waters.

Temperature, but not acidification, influences the growth and lipid profile of juvenile sand whiting, Sillago ciliata (Cuvier 1829)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Seafood provides an essential source of macro‐ and micronutrients for coastal communities worldwide. Climate change is a key threat to seafood security, altering the sizes, abundances, distributions, physiology and ecological interactions of fisheries species, and increasingly, there is evidence of impacts to seafood nutritional quality.
