Hydrodynamic characteristics of the sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) and swordfish (Xiphias gladius) in gliding postures at their cruise speeds. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2013 The sailfish and swordfish are known as the fastest sea animals, reaching their maximum speeds of around 100 km/h. In the present study, we investigate the hydrodynamic characteristics of these fishes in their cruise speeds of about 1 body length per ...

Seascape Genomics and Phylogeography of the Sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus). [PDF]
Genome Biol Evol, 2023 AbstractPermeable phylogeographic barriers characterize the vast open ocean, boosting gene flow and counteracting population differentiation and speciation of widely distributed and migratory species. However, many widely distributed species consists of distinct populations throughout their distribution, evidencing that our understanding of how the ...

Assessment of the Impact on 20 Pelagic Fish Species by the Taiwanese Small-Scale Longline Fishery in the Western North Pacific Using Ecological Risk Assessment. [PDF]
Animals (Basel), 2022 Ecological risk assessment (ERA) has been applied on assessing the relative risk of bycatch species in recent years. ERA index is calculated by productivity of species and susceptibility of fisheries on fish species.

Quantifying Catch Rates, Shark Abundance and Depredation Rate at a Spearfishing Competition on the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. [PDF]
Biology (Basel), 2022 We developed and applied a method to quantify spearfisher effort and catch, shark interactions and shark depredation in a boat-based recreational spearfishing competition in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in Queensland. Survey questions were designed

Short-term movements and habitat preferences of sailfish, Istiophorus platypterus (Istiophoridae), along the southeast coast of Brazil [PDF]
Neotropical Ichthyology, 2014 Pop-up satellite archival tags (PSATs) were deployed on four sailfish, Istiophorus platypterus, in the coastal waters of Rio de Janeiro State in southeast Brazil during January and February of 2009 (sailfish I and II) and between November 2010 and ...

Proportions of Atlantic sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) and spearfish (Tetrapturus pfluegeri) caught in tuna longline fisheries [PDF]
International Aquatic Research, 2016 The reliability of estimations of catches of pelagic longline fisheries is especially worrying in the case of non-target species such as the sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) and spearfish (Tetrapturus pfluegeri), because they are often recorded ...

Crecimiento de Istiophorus platypterus (Pisces: Istiophoridae) en la boca del Golfo de California
Revista de Biología Tropical, 1998 Specimens (733) of Istiohporus platypterus caught by sport fishing in the southern of the California Gulf were measured. The fourth spine of the dorsal fin was collected to estimate the age and individuals from 1 to 8 years were found.
