Addressing the complex phylogenetic relationship of the Gempylidae fishes using mitogenome data. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2023
The Gempylidae mitogenomes present a conserved gene order and a similar manner of evolution. Complete mitogenome data provide clearer resolution in the phylogeny of gempylids. We identify two major clades of the Gempylidae, which formed around 48.05 (35.89–52.04) million years ago.

Revisiting Eothyrsites holosquamatus Chapman (Trichiuroidea: Gempylidae), an Eocene gemfish from the Burnside Mudstone, Dunedin, New Zealand. [PDF]

open access: yesJ R Soc N Z
ABSTRACT The remains of a unique fossil bony fish were discovered in late Eocene (39.1–36.7 Ma: NZ Kaiatan stage) mudstone at Burnside near Dunedin, New Zealand in the 1930s and subsequently named and described by Frederick Chapman. He interpreted the type specimen as being a large‐scaled relative of the modern Thyrsites of the Gempylidae (Scombroidei:

DNA barcoding the ichthyofauna of the Beibu Gulf: Implications for fisheries management in a seafood market hub. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2023
The fish fauna of the beibu gulf, one of the largest sea food hubs in Southeast Asia, is characterized here by DNA barcoding. The 1080 DNA barcodes analyzed show concordance between morphological identifications and DNA‐based species delimitation. Lower level of diversity detected here compared to historical observations is concordant with the stock ...

Histamine in Brazilian Foods: A Comprehensive Review of Occurrence and Risk Assessment for Intoxication and Intolerance. [PDF]

open access: yesFood Sci Nutr
Even though histamine plays an important role in human health, it has been associated with food intoxication and intolerance episodes. The most relevant, current state of knowledge regarding histamine's biochemical and health aspects is provided. Histamine levels are provided for 17 food groups, including 335 food types and 11,437 samples, allowing ...

The fossil vertebrate primary type specimens in the collection of the University of Otago Department of Geology. [PDF]

open access: yesJ R Soc N Z
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.

Fitting fangs in a finite face: A novel fang accommodation strategy in a 280-million-year-old ray-finned fish. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anat, 2023
Left jaws of †Brazilichthys macrognathus (DGM 1061‐P) in mesial view. Palatoquadrate sectioned to expose the fenestration of the maxilla and the fangs of the lower jaw (in red). Scale bar = 10 mm. Abstract Though Paleozoic ray‐finned fishes are considered to be morphologically conservative, we report a novel mode of fang accommodation (i.e., the ...

Marine water environmental DNA metabarcoding provides a comprehensive fish diversity assessment and reveals spatial patterns in a large oceanic area. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2020
eDNA samples provide information on fish diversity in a broad‐scale marine area, detecting almost ten times more fish species compared with pelagic trawling, including some considered elusive or difficult to capture with traditional fishing methods.

Design and Validation of an Open-Close Device for Integrated Environmental DNA Sampling Detects A Depth Gradient in Indian Ocean Deep-Sea Fish Assemblages. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The goal of this study was to leverage existing survey technology to design and test an eDNA sampler that captures an integrated eDNA sample over the length of a deep‐water transect. We provide a biological interpretation of the resulting data, demonstrating the usefulness of such technology to understand the ocean environments, using fish species as ...

Early prey intake of a short-finned pilot whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus Gray, 1846, Cetacea: Delphinidae) in the Canary Islands. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The short‐finned pilot whale, Globicephala macrorhynchus in the Canary Islands. Stomach contents, trophic markers, skin isotopic ratios of nitrogen (δ15N: 15N/14N) and carbon (δ13C: 13C/12C), and fatty acid profiles of the blubber of a short‐finned pilot whale were analyzed to obtain the insights in their early hunting behavior.

Estimating trends and magnitudes of bycatch in the tuna fisheries of the Western and Central Pacific Ocean

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 812-828, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Minimising the unintended capture of fish, marine mammals, reptiles, seabirds and other marine organisms is an important component of responsible fisheries management and for stabilising declines and rebuilding populations of threatened species.
