Polar cod Boreogadus saida occurrence is driven by temperature at the margin of its distribution

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract With a warming Arctic, suitable habitat for polar cod Boreogadus saida (Lepechin 1774) is predicted to decrease. We investigated the changes in distribution of polar cod on the southern limit of its distribution in the Atlantic Ocean (around Iceland) during both autumn and spring after a recent period of warming in the area.

“Crash landing” obligation for Mediterranean mixed fisheries: Evaluation of management strategies using bioeconomic modelling in the Aegean Sea

Scientia Marina, 2019
Minimizing unwanted catches is a major milestone for achieving sustainable fisheries. In the framework of the Common Fisheries Policy, a landing obligation is being established progressively in European waters (Article 15, EU Regulation 1380/2013 ...

Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

Age and growth of the endemic groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a heavily exploited batoid in the Brazilian Meridional Margin (21–34° S)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Life‐history data are often lacking for exploited elasmobranchs, jeopardizing proper management and conservation measures for this vulnerable group. Herein, we provided age and growth estimates for the groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a medium‐sized, heavily exploited batoid endemic to the southwestern Atlantic Ocean.

Growth‐regulating proteins differ between British seawater fish species, shedding light on their ecological adaptations

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wnt proteins are a family of molecules that help control how cells grow, develop and communicate – processes that are fundamental to the development and health of all animals. Although Wnt pathways have been studied extensively in model species, very little is known about how they operate in marine fish.

Applying bayesian population assessment models to artisanal, multispecies fisheries in the Northern Mokran Sea, Iran

Nature Conservation, 2018
Small-scale fisheries substantially contribute to the reduction of poverty, local economies and food safety in many countries. However, limited and low-quality catches and effort data for small-scale fisheries complicate the stock assessment and ...

Pigmentation disorders in three specimens of spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias Linnaeus, 1758, from the Gulf of Venice, northern Adriatic Sea

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study reports three cases of pigmentation disorders in Squalus acanthias from the Gulf of Venice. Two specimens exhibited spotless phenotypes, whereas one exhibited hypermelanism. Morphological assessments were conducted for two individuals, alongside genetic analysis of mitochondrial genes to determine phylogeographic relationships. Both

Contrasting life‐history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia Sea

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Comprehending a species' life‐history strategies is crucial to inform effective conservation efforts. Commercial fishing impacts icefish (family: Channichthyidae) in the Scotia Sea, but detailed information on species‐specific life histories remains largely unknown.

Unravelling the skin of the nurse shark: A morphological description of the placoid scales of Ginglymostoma cirratum

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ginglymostoma cirratum, commonly known as the nurse shark, is a nocturnally active benthic shark, often found in western and eastern Atlantic waters. Although this shark has been well explored in many biological aspects, few studies have thoroughly examined the morphology of its dermal denticles (or placoid scales).
