Comparative studies of the feeding capacity and preference of Aphyosemion gularis (Boulenger 1901) on some aquatic macroinvertebrates [PDF]
Background & objectives: An efficient larvivorous fish must show a predilection for mosquito larvae in thepresence of alternative preys. This study compares the feeding capacity and preference of Aphyosemion gularisexposed to different kinds of aquatic ...

Growth gradients in fish larvae* [PDF]
Relative growth intensity of various longitudinally measured body segments in larvae of several species of fishes was distributed across the body in a continuous, U‐shaped gradient. Juveniles lacked a simple pattern of growth but appeared to grow nearly isometrically.

Larval condition and growth of Sardinella brasiliensis (Steindachner, 1879): preliminary results from laboratory studies [PDF]
Brazilian sardine, the most important resource along the southeastern Brazilian coast, presented great variations and declines in its stocks. The main factors contributing to this are: oceanographic structure changes; recruitment failures; excessive ...

A fly in the ointment: evaluation of traditional use of plants to repel and kill blowfly larvae in fermented fish. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: In rural areas in Laos, fly larvae infestations are common in fermenting fish. Blowflies (Chrysomya megacephala, Diptera: Calliphoridae) are attracted to oviposit (and/or larviposit) onto fermenting fish which results in infestations with ...

Developmental changes in foraging-predator avoidance trade-offs in larval lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus [PDF]
The 5-12 wk old larvae increased time spent clinging to a surface in the presence of a predator, trading-off time available for foraging in order to reduce the probability of attack.

The effect of a 24-hour photoperiod on the survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae [PDF]
The effects of two different continuous photoperiod regimes on survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae were investigated. Each photoperiod regime was tested twice with a different larval cohort

Larval Fish Assemblage Structure at Coastal Fronts and the Influence of Environmental Variability
Within the coastal zone, oceanographic features, such as fronts, can have major effects on the abundance and distribution of larval fish. We investigated the effects of fronts on larval fish assemblages by jointly collecting physical (ADCP and CTD) and ...
