Feeding habits of European hake, Merluccius merluccius (Actinopterygii: Gadiformes: Merlucciidae), from the northeastern Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
Background. European hake, Merluccius merluccius, is a major predator in demersal ecosystem, and of great importance for the fishery. Knowledge of the feeding ecology of fish species is essential for implementing a multispecies approach to fishery ...

Kudoa alliaria in flesh of Argentinian hoki Macruronus magellanicus (Gadiformes; Merlucciidae) [PDF]
Myxozoans of the genus Kudoa are widespread parasites of marine fishes and primarily infect the body musculature of their hosts. Although Kudoa species are not usually associated with host mortality, some do form macroscopic cysts in the tissue and some are associated with post mortem tissue degradation.

Predicting oxygen thresholds of marine taxa to improve ecological forecasts
Species' ranges are shifting in response to increasing temperature and decreasing oxygen in coastal oceans. Predicting these shifts is limited by information on physiological oxygen thresholds and how they depend on temperature. Here we collate laboratory‐derived measurements of a common oxygen threshold, pcrit, for 148 animal species that span six ...

Abstract This paper presents the discovery of †Gondwanacanthus decollatus, a new genus and species of Early Cretaceous deep‐bodied fish from the late Barremian or early Aptian Morro do Chaves Formation in the Sergipe–Alagoas Basin, northeastern Brazil. It represents the first record of Acanthomorpha in Early Cretaceous Gondwana.

Evolution of Hemoglobin Genes in Codfishes Influenced by Ocean Depth
Understanding the genetic basis of adaptation is one of the main enigmas of evolutionary biology. Among vertebrates, hemoglobin has been well documented as a key trait for adaptation to different environments. Here, we investigate the role of hemoglobins
