Uncharted digenean diversity in Lake Tanganyika: cryptogonimids (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae) infecting endemic lates perches (Actinopterygii: Latidae)

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Lake Tanganyika is considered a biodiversity hotspot with exceptional species richness and level of endemism. Given the global importance of the lake in the field of evolutionary biology, the understudied status of its parasite fauna is ...

Population dynamics of an emergent invasive fish, striped piggy, Pomadasys stridens (Actinopterygii, Perciformes, Haemulidae) in the Gulf of İskenderun, north-eastern Mediterranean

open access: yes, 2021
The striped piggy, Pomadasys stridens (Forsskål, 1775), is a recent invasive fish species in the eastern Mediterranean. Although its population dynamics was investigated in detail in its natural distribution area, the western Indian Ocean, an important ...

The first record of the pharaoh cardinal fish, Apogonichthyoides pharaonis (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Apogonidae), from Libyan waters

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2021
The occurrence of the pharaoh cardinalfish, Apogonichthyoides pharaonis (Bellotti, 1874), is documented for the first time from the Libyan waters, after two subsequent findings reported in September and November 2020 in the far eastern region of the ...

Abiotic variables drive different aspects of fish community trait variation and species richness across the continental United States

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Trait distributions provide insight into how niches overlap within a broader trait space. By integrating individual‐level trait observations from different communities, we can explore how facets of trait dimensionality vary across environmental conditions.

The Diversity of Ray-finned Fishes (Actinopterygii) in Plio-Pleistocene Java

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Biodiversity and Biotechnology, 2020
Java has been known in the world of Paleontology as a contributor to the findings of Homo erectus fossils, but there are still other fossil findings that have not been identified until now, especially fossil fishes of the subclass Actinopterygii. This research was conducted to recognize the diversity of the actinopterygians fishes in Plio-Pleistocene ...

Feeding behavior of the Amazonian Water Snake Helicops hagmanni Roux, 1910 (Reptilia: Squamata: Colubridae: Hydropsini) [PDF]

open access: yesBoletim do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi. Ciências Naturais, 2008
The genus Helicops currently comprises 15 species, of which eleven occur in the Amazon Forest. H. hagmanni feeds on fishes and has nocturnal habits, but detailed data about its diet and behavioral ecology are scarce. Here, we report a H.

Alteration of the feeding behavior of an omnivorous fish, Scardinius acarnanicus (Actinopterygii: Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae), in the presence of fishing lights

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2021
Fishing with light is an old and common practice yielding a substantial catch volume globally. Despite the popularity of the method and the efforts to improve it, there is a lack of field studies on the effects of light on the feeding preferences of the ...

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

Toltrazuril (Baycox® vet.) in feed can reduce Ichthyophthirius multifiliis invasion of rainbow trout (Salmonidae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2011
Various compounds have been applied for control of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (commonly known as Ich) which is the parasitic pathogen, responsible for the white spot disease, in freshwater aquaculture worldwide.  Available methods are based on
