Phylogeography of the Anaspides richardsoni species clade (Anaspidacea, Anaspidesidae): glaciation and recolonization of the Tasmanian Central Plateau and the question of paraphyletic species

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract We herein present a phylogenetic and population genetic analysis of a Tasmanian Mountain Shrimp clade, based on ddRAD and cytochrome oxidase subunit‐1 data sets. Our data show that the morphologically well‐delineated and widespread Anaspides richardsoni Ahyong, 2016 is paraphyletic with respect to four other species (A. eberhardi Ahyong, 2016,

Brain‐Encysting Trematodes Increase the Frequency but Reduce the Repeatability of Surfacing Behaviour in Mottled Triplefin

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
In Otago Harbour, New Zealand, the trophically transmitted trematode Cardiocephaloides ovicorpus infects the brain of a population of mottled triplefin (Forsterygion capito) with high prevalence and intensity. Behavioural tests revealed that the infection intensity was significantly positively correlated with surfacing frequency, and repeatability of ...

Controlled Ghost Fishing: Effects of Soaking Times and Mesh Sizes on Catchability in Trammel Net Fisheries

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trammel nets are used with extended soaking times to increase the catching efficiency for demersal fish in commercial fishing. Long soaking time causes deterioration or damage to species caught in the first days. Effects of soaking time were investigated with 36‐mm, 42‐mm, and 46‐mm mesh sizes soaked over 1, 3, 5, and 7 days on target, non ...

Reproductive Biology of the Smoothtail Spiny Lobster (Panulirus laevicauda) to Support Fisheries Management in Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The smoothtail spiny lobster (Panulirus laevicauda) is one of the main target species for fisheries in Brazil. We aimed to estimate reproductive parameters of this species in support of a minimum legal size limit for the region. A sample of 508 individuals ranged 13.75–100 mm in cephalothorax length (CL) from the southern coast of Espírito ...
