Morphological covariates of the ontogenetic shift from nauplii to copepodite prey in larval fish. [PDF]
Abstract Larval fish are active planktonic predators, with many species feeding initially on copepod nauplii and gradually shifting their selection to copepodites. This study evaluated whether it is possible to develop a general widely applicable empirical model to describe the transition from feeding on copepod nauplii to copepodites in relation to ...

Are Sponges Good Natural Sentinels for Monitoring Fish Diversity in Antarctic Coastal Waters? [PDF]
This study demonstrates that eDNA metabarcoding using both water and sponge samples is an effective tool for monitoring fish biodiversity along the Western Antarctic Peninsula. The results revealed 14 endemic Antarctic fish species and one marine mammal, with water samples often offering a more comprehensive view than sponges.

Backward swimming in elongated-bodied abyssal demersal fishes: Synaphobranchidae, Macrouridae, and Ophidiidae. [PDF]
Abstract The deep‐sea demersal fish fauna is characterized by a prevalence of elongated‐body forms with long tapering tails. Using baited camera landers at depths of 4500–6300 m in the Pacific Ocean, we observed multiple instances of backward swimming using reverse undulation of the slender body in four species: the cutthroat eel Ilyophis robinsae ...

Abstract Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) sustain one of the most lucrative fisheries in the eastern Canadian Arctic and Labrador Sea. This species also plays an important role in food web connectivity and benthic–pelagic coupling. Despite the relatively rich knowledge of this species, R.
