Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Fish‐aggregating devices (FADs) are man‐made objects designed to attract fish, with the aim of facilitating spatially heterogeneous aggregations of marine species. These objects influence the structure of pelagic fisheries, consequently affecting fish distributions and interactions. One of the most iconic epipelagic species targeted using FADs

Physiology of elasmobranch fishes [PDF]
, 1989 The elasmobranch fishes although not so important and abundant as their teleostean relatives, are considered valuable in many respects. There are a number of books on physiology of bony fishes but literature on this subject on the cartilaginous ...

In situ observation of bluntnose sixgill shark (Hexanchus griseus) aggregation, mainland Palau
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract The bluntnose sixgill shark (Hexanchus griseus) is a globally distributed large‐bodied predator, primarily associated with deep‐sea environments. Due to the logistical constraints of its habitat, much remains unknown about the life history and behavior of H. griseus.

Evolutionary trends in the elasmobranch neurocranium
Scientific ReportsAbstract The neurocranium (braincase) is one of the defining vertebrate characters. Housing the brain and other key sensory organs, articulating with the jaws and contributing to the shape of the anteriormost portion of the body, the braincase is undoubtedly of great functional importance.

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Squids are important components of marine ecosystems because of their role as both predator and prey. Across the Tasman Sea, Gould's arrow squid (Nototodarus gouldi) is a commercially targeted ommastrephid squid that supports an economically important fishery.

Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity
New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Cephalopods play crucial roles in marine ecosystems due to their diverse and indispensable contributions to trophic webs. However, parasitological research on cephalopods remains limited in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ), despite the commercial significance of certain squid species and the zoonotic potential of the parasites within them. This study aimed to
