Age and growth of three coastal-pelagic tunas (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Scombridae) in the Florida Straits, USA: blackfin tuna, Thunnus atlanticus, little tunny, Euthynnus alletteratus, and skipjack tuna, Katsuwonus pelamis [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2014
Background. Understanding the life history of a species is essential for fully understanding its role within an ecosystem.  However, many of the fish species of high ecological value have not been studied due to their less prominent roles in ...

Carboxylesterase activities as potential biomarkers of pollution in marine pelagic predators

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Assessment of chemical exposures in the marine environment is frequently undertaken in sedentary organisms inhabiting coastal environments. However, predatory pelagic fish should be considered sentinel species, as they play an important role in the ...

Deep genetic differentiation in the little tunny from the Mediterranean and east Atlantic. [PDF]

, 2020
In this study we present the analysis of the stock structure of Little tunny (Euthynnus alletteratus) using the mitochondrial control region as a genetic marker. More than 500 individuals distributed in six locations were analyzed. Samples were from three main regions: Mediterranean (Tunisia and Spain), and northeast Atlantic (Portugal and Senegal) and

An unprecedented aggregation of whale sharks, Rhincodon typus, in Mexican coastal waters of the Caribbean Sea. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Whale sharks, Rhincodon typus, are often perceived as solitary behemoths that live and feed in the open ocean. To the contrary, evidence is accumulating that they are gregarious and form seasonal aggregations in some coastal waters.

Age, growth, and maturity of little tunny, Euthynnus alletteratus (Rafinesque, 1810) in southeastern Brazil

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2021
This is the first attempt to assess life parameters of little tunny Euthynnus alletteratus in the southwestern Atlantic. Fin spines, liver, and gonad information from 345 fishes (330-780 mm fork length) sampled from artisanal landings between March 2018, and February 2019 were used to analyze age, growth, and sexual maturity.

Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Histamine Levels and Hygienic Aspect of Little Tunny (Euthynnus alletteratus) Musculature at Different Environment Time and Temperature

Journal of Aquatic Food Product Technology, 2023
We investigated the effect of storage time and temperature on muscular histamine (HIS) contents in little tunny (LT). Fifty LT were preserved at various temperatures (0- 21°C). We collected muscles from several areas at 0-, 6-, 12-, 18-, and 24 h post-fishing for further examination.
