Istiophorus platypterus

2014
Istiophorus platypterus (Shaw & Nodder, 1792) – Sailfish; Veleiro-do-Atlântico ①, ②③ Istiophorus albicans (Latreille, 1804) is a synonym of I. platypterus according to Collette et al. (2006).

Intraspecific phylogeographic isolation of Arabian Gulf sailfish Istiophorus platypterus inferred from mitochondrial DNA

Marine Biology, 2004
The genetic structure of seven sailfish Istiophorus platypterus populations sampled from three locations inside and four locations outside the Arabian Gulf was determined by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of mitochondrial DNA of 147 individuals using eight restriction endonucleases.

Sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) spawning and larval environment in a Florida Current frontal eddy

Progress in Oceanography, 2009
Abstract Fronts and eddies are widely hypothesized to be critical spawning habitat for large pelagic fishes, due to increased larval and/or adult feeding opportunities at these features. We examined sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) spawning around a cyclonic, submesoscale (∼13 × 7 km) Florida Current frontal eddy.

Seasonal reproduction of sailfishIstiophorus platypterusfrom the southeast Mexican Pacific

Marine Biology Research, 2013
Abstract Quantitative histology was used to analyse the seasonal reproductive characteristics of the Istiophorus platypterus sailfish obtained from bycatch and recreational catches in the southeast Mexican Pacific. The analysis revealed five stages of ovarian development, eight kinds of oocytes, and one postovulation structure.

Diet composition of sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) from the southern Gulf of California, Mexico

Fisheries Research, 2002
Diet composition of the sailfish Istiophorus platypterus from the southern Gulf of California was determined using stomach contents of 576 fish. They were sampled from 1989 to 1991 from the sport fishing fleet at six tourist ports of the Mexican Pacific (La Paz, Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Barra de Navidad, and Manzanillo). A total of 78

Arsenic in the top predators sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) and dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) off the southeastern Gulf of California

Environmental Geochemistry and Health, 2021
Distribution of arsenic (As) in tissues and gonads of the Indo-Pacific sailfish Istiophorus platypterus and the dolphinfish Coryphaena hippurus from the SE Gulf of California was evaluated. The bioaccumulation patterns of As were the same in the two species. In I. platypterus, As levels (mg kg-1, wet weight) were gonads (7.4 ± 1.1) > liver (3.1 ± 0.1) >

Trophic size‐structure of sailfish Istiophorus platypterus in eastern Taiwan estimated by stable isotope analysis

Journal of Fish Biology, 2014
To examine trophic dynamics over different size classes, an isotopic study of sailfish Istiophorus platypterus life‐history stages was carried out. Samples were collected from eastern Taiwan and the South China Sea during April 2009 and February 2012. A total of 263 samples (111–245 cm, lower jaw fork length, LLJFL) were examined for changes in trophic

Genetic diversity and population structure of Indo-Pacific sailfish Istiophorus platypterus in the eastern Pacific

Fisheries Science, 2015
Population genetics provides information for the management and conservation of species, because it supports the delimitation of population units. A mitochondrial DNA marker was used to determine the genetic structure of the sailfish Istiophorus platypterus at four locations in Mexico (Mazatlan, Colima, Acapulco, Oaxaca) and one location in Ecuador. We

Vertical and horizontal movements of sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) near Taiwan determined using pop-up satellite tags

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2011
Abstract Sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) are of substantial economic importance to Taiwan because of their seasonal abundance (April to October, with a peak from May to July) off the island's eastern coast. They are harvested by drift gill nets, set nets, harpoons, and as incidental bycatch by inshore longline fisheries.

A Pliocene sailfishIstiophorus platypterus(Shaw and Nodder, 1791) from southern California

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 1982
ABSTRACT A vertebra referred to the sailfish Istiophorus platypterus is described from the upper Pliocene (Blancan) San Diego Formation, San Diego County, California. The specimen represents the first reported billfish of this age from western North America and adds to the poor fossil record of the Istiophoridae.
