Occurrence and distribution of parasites in relation to food components of grey gurnard, Eutrigla gurnardus (L.) (Teleostei: Scorpaeniformes), off the Shetland Islands

open access: yesOceanological and Hydrobiological Studies, 2014
The research was conducted on the parasite fauna and food composition of Eutrigla gurnardus caught as by-catch in commercial catches of the Atlantic cod Gadus morhua near the Shetland Islands. Thirteen species and two genera of pathogens were identified,

Species which may act as vectors or reservoirs of diseases covered by the Animal Health Law: Listed pathogens of fish. [PDF]

open access: yesEFSA J, 2023
Abstract Vector or reservoir species of five fish diseases listed in the Animal Health Law were identified, based on evidence generated through an extensive literature review (ELR), to support a possible updating of Regulation (EU) 2018/1882. Fish species on or in which highly polymorphic region‐deleted infectious salmon anaemia virus (HPR∆ ISAV), Koi ...

Structural and developmental insights into the muscles involved in lionfish (Pterois spp.) vocalisations. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Fish Biol
Abstract Vocal signalling is an important mode of communication in fishes. The two species of lionfish in the Pterois complex, the Indo‐Pacific lionfish (Pterois volitans) and the red lionfish (Pterois miles), are both known to produce different types of sounds with sonic muscles attached to the swimbladder.

Diet and trophic structure of fishes in the Barents Sea: between empty and full stomachs - large individual variability follows a common pattern. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Fish Biol
Abstract More than 27,000 stomachs from 70 species of fish were collected from the Barents Sea in 2015. Quantitative stomach content expressed relative to the body weight of the predator fish (g g−1 as %) varied by four to five orders of magnitude for six species with the largest sample size (Atlantic cod Gadus morhua, haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus,

Trait-based life strategies, ecological niches, and niche overlap in the nekton of the data-poor Mediterranean Sea. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2020
In this study, we used biological traits in order to define the life strategies and niche overlap of 205 nektonic species of the Mediterranean Sea. Focusing on habitats of importance (Posidonia beds, coralligène formations, and lagoons), we investigated strategies and niches of the species present there.
