Method of meal delivery influences estimates of postprandial metabolism and alkaline tide in a benthic fish

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Intragastric gavage is widely used in studies of digestive physiology to deliver standardised meals, yet it remains unclear whether it elicits postprandial metabolic and acid–base responses comparable to voluntary feeding. Here, we tested whether the method of meal delivery affects the magnitude and timing of the postprandial rise in metabolic

Immature individuals dominate elasmobranch fisheries of the Bali Strait

open access: yes, 2020
Elasmobranchs play an important role in the functioning of marine ecosystems and top-down control in food webs. However, overexploitation threatens elasmobranch populations worldwide.

Inclusive Science for a changing ocean: gender equity in elasmobranch research

open access: yesFrontiers in Fish Science
Persistent inequities in marine science continue to shape who leads research, whose work is most visible, and which questions are prioritised. In elasmobranch science, a field often defined by intensive fieldwork and long-standing cultural norms, these ...

Skeletons of swiftly swimming sharks: Three‐dimensional analysis of lamniform vertebral morphology and mineral architecture

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We examined morphology, 3D arrangement, and mineral amount in cartilaginous vertebrae from four lamniform shark families (Alopiidae, Carchariidae, Cetorhinidae, and Lamnidae). We identified family‐specific mineralization trends, and regional patterning of structures along the column.

Reproductive biology

open access: yes, 2005
Several reproductive specializations are found within the elasmobranchs. All elasmobranchs fertilize internally and produce a relatively small number of large eggs. Elasmobranch fecundity generally ranges from one to two offspring produced a year up to a

The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

The artisanal elasmobranch fishery on the east coast of Baja California, Mexico: Characteristics and management considerations

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2009
The Mexican elasmobranch fishery ranks among the most important in the world, but details associated with fishing effort and species composition are generally unavailable, particularly for the extensive artisanal fishery. Seasonal surveys were conducted

Functional anatomy, jaw mechanisms, and feeding behavior of Dunkleosteus terrelli (Placodermi, Arthrodira)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 10, Page 2574-2635, October 2026.
A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...
