Hadal snailfish are not endemic to single deep‐sea features, as evidenced by multiple documented range extensions of hadal snailfish species. Our data supports the recommendation that Notoliparis should be considered a subjective junior synonym of the genus Pseudoliparis and highlights the importance of expanding sampling efforts.

Marine Bird Bycatch in Alaska Salmon Gillnet Fisheries
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.

ABSTRACT Rapid warming in the Arctic is causing cumulative impacts on ecosystems, including widespread reduction in sea ice extent, resulting in shifts in primary production, which can have cascading bottom‐up trophic influences on marine food web structure and function. Understanding trophic interactions and the structure of local food webs across the

Metabarcoding Primers for Indo‐Pacific Fishes
We compared the relative performance of five metabarcoding primers (Berry 16S, Riaz 12S, MiFish E 12S, MiFish U 12S, and Leray CO1) to recover Indo‐Pacific fish taxa. We tested the primers using template DNA from three types of samples: (1) mock communities of tissue‐based DNA extractions, (2) a semi‐natural aquarium tank, and (3) a tropical coral reef

The Disease Burden in Fish Farm Management: An Integrative View and a Specific Vision in Europe
ABSTRACT In aquaculture, the interactions and balance—or imbalance—between the fish, the rearing environment, pathogens, and farm management determine the occurrence and impact of clinical diseases. The global assessment of the factors related to disease impact is commonly referred to as disease burden.
