Demersal fish in Delaware coastal waters
Journal of Natural History, 1980Summary During 1973–74, demersal fish were sampled seasonally by otter trawl from two inshore sites on the Delaware Atlantic Coast. A total of 2400 fish was taken at both sites. Of the 33 species collected, 19 were common to both sites. Urophycis chuss accounted for 38·9% of the total catch at the Cape Henlopen site and Prionotus carolinus comprised 18·

Are Larvae of Demersal Fishes Plankton or Nekton?
2006A pelagic larval stage is found in nearly all demersal marine teleost fishes, and it is during this pelagic stage that the geographic scale of dispersal is determined. Marine biologists have long made a simplifying assumption that behaviour of larvae--with the possible exception of vertical distribution--has negligible influence on larval dispersal ...

Evidence for non-selective ingestion of microplastic in demersal fish
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2019Microplastics have been observed in >100 species of fish, with considerable variability in levels of contamination in different species and different geographic locations. Here, we investigated the incidence of microplastic in five species of demersal fish (four wild-caught species and one from a mariculture business) in Hong Kong. We observed that 54%

Deep demersal fishes in the Canary Islands
2023Some remarks about deep-sea demersal species of fishes captured in fishery prospections from La Gomera, Gran Canaria and Tenerife (Canary Islands) between 300-2500 m depth are given. Long-lines and experimental traps were used during the cruises. Twenty-five species werre collected.

Demersal and larval fish assemblages in the Chukchi Sea
Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2010A multidisciplinary research cruise was conducted in the Chukchi Sea in summer 2004 during which we investigated assemblages of small demersal fishes and ichthyoplankton and the water masses associated with these assemblages. This study establishes a baseline of 30 demersal fish and 25 ichthyoplankton taxa in US and Russian waters of the Chukchi Sea ...

Reproductive Strategies of Demersal and Pelagic Spawning Fish
Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 1984The spawning tactic of herring (Clupea harengus) wherein batches of eggs are deposited leading to a succession of larval cohorts is elaborated. We found the time interval between cohorts to be a function of larval growth rate as well as larval mouth size.

Food of predatory demersal fish in Hauraki Gulf
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1970Summary In 1965–66, the feeding relationships of snapper Chrysophrys auratus (Forster), trevally Caranx lutescens Richardson, red gurnard Chelidonichthys kumu Lesson and Garnot, horse mackerel

The Food of the Demersal Fish of a West African Estuary
The Journal of Animal Ecology, 1957As part of a project to investigate the relationship between the West African demersal fish and the marine benthic communities, an analysis of the food and feeding intensity of the fish commonly taken in otter-trawls in the Sierra Leone River was undertaken by this Institute in 1952.
