The nuclear DNA content (2C value) was determined in the commercial fish Galaxias maculatus (Galaxiidae) was determined by microdensitometry of erythrocyte nuclei after Feulgen staining; rainbow trout erythrocytes with a known 2C value were used as a ...

Chronic experimental hyperoxia elevates aerobic scope: a valid method to test for physiological oxygen limitations in fish. [PDF]
Abstract Experimental hyperoxia has been shown to enhance the maximum oxygen uptake capacity of fishes under acute conditions, potentially offering an avenue to test prominent physiological hypotheses attempting to explain impacts of climate warming on fish populations (e.g., gill‐oxygen limitation driving declines in fish size).

Substrate size modifies stream grazer-biofilm interactions in the presence of invertivorous fish. [PDF]
Abstract When herbivore abundance is controlled by predators there may be an indirect positive effect on primary producers due to reduced grazing pressure, but the potential of predation refuges to modify such trophic cascades has rarely been studied.

Assessing Patterns and Risk to Chilean Freshwater Fish Distributions Using Multi-Species Occupancy Models. [PDF]
To advance our understanding of freshwater biodiversity in data‐limited systems, this study used multispecies occupancy models to predict species richness and individual species occupancy, providing critical insights for the conservation of these rapidly declining ecosystems.

The fossil vertebrate primary type specimens in the collection of the University of Otago Department of Geology. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The 47 vertebrate type specimens held in the University of Otago Geology Department are catalogued in detail. A short history of the collection is followed by lists of the type specimens under the Classes Actinopterygii, Reptilia, Aves and Mammalia. A fish trace‐fossil is included at the end of the Actinopterygii.

Life history of Galaxias divergens (Salmonoidea: Galaxiidae) [PDF]
Abstract Galaxias divergent Stokell is a small, bottom‐dwelling fish inhabiting streams in the North Island and the northern part of the South Island. Its ecology is similar in many respects to that of G. vulgaris. The fry develop in the same environment as the adults, unlike the sea‐going young of several other Galaxias spec'es.

Muscle myogens in the New Zealand Galaxiidae [PDF]
The muscle myogen proteins of 10 species of the family Galaxiidae exhibited a high degree of species specificity when separated by starch gel electrophoresis. Non‐diadromous, non‐lacustrine species had some variation in the proteins present, while diadromous and lacustrine species, except for Galaxias maculatus, had remarkably uniform muscle myogen ...
