Discovery of populations of the critically endangered coral Rhizopsammia wellingtoni in the Galápagos mesophotic zone

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
The critically endangered coral Rhizopsammia wellingtoni is endemic to the Galápagos Islands. It is considered possibly extinct after successive extreme marine heat waves caused population collapse, and it has not been seen in almost 25 years. We report the discovery of remnant populations of Wellington's coral at three locations in the Galápagos ...

Imputation of Fisheries Reference Points for Endangered Data‐Poor Fishes, With Application to Rhino Rays

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For data‐limited fish species, sustainable management frequently relies on biological metrics that are derived from life‐history trait data, as opposed to high‐resolution time series of catch and abundance. These biological metrics are used to assess a species' recovery potential at low population densities, as well as their extinction risk ...

Marine Bird Bycatch in Alaska Salmon Gillnet Fisheries

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incidental catch in gillnet fisheries has a substantial conservation impact on marine diving birds. We synthesized available marine bird bycatch data from Alaska salmon gillnet fisheries to estimate standardized bycatch rates, model factors influencing bycatch rates, and estimate total bycatch.
