Length–weight relations of fishes inhabiting a hyperhaline coastal lagoon in Yucatan, Mexico [PDF]
Length–weight relations (LWR) were estimated for 45 fish species (27 families) from a tropical hyperhaline coastal lagoon and a protected biosphere reserve located in Yucatan Peninsula. The following species were studied: Elops saurus Linnaeus,

Estuaries serve as important nursery habitats for various species of early-life stage fish, but can experience cooccurring acidification and hypoxia that can vary diurnally in intensity. This study examines the effects of acidification (pH 7.2−7.4)

High levels of docosahexaenoic acid are present in eight New World silversides (Pisces: Atherinopsidae) [PDF]
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is the most critical and least available omega-3 fatty acid in the Western human diet. Currently, the source of omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) is mainly dependent on wild fisheries, making this ...

The mitogenome of the California grunion (Leuresthes tenuis)
We report the complete mitogenome for the California grunion (Leuresthes tenuis), a beach-spawning silverside fish endemic to eastern Pacific coastal waters of California, USA and Baja California, Mexico.

Variable susceptibility and response to estrogenic chemicals in Menidia menidia [PDF]
Environmental endocrine disruptors can profoundly impact sex ratios of fish popula- tions, especially if the fish exhibits plasticity in sex determination. The Atlantic silverside Menidia menidia exhibits a genetically based latitudinal cline in numerous traits including temperature- dependent sex determination (TSD), which varies from high thermal ...

Retention of elements absorbed by juvenile fish (Menidia menidia, Menidia beryllina) from zooplankton prey [PDF]
Radiolabeled copepods (Acartia spp.) were fed to juvenile silversides (Menidia menidia and Menidia beryllina) to study clement absorption in the fish. Copepods were reared from nauplii in the presence of different radiotracers (14C,109Cd, 57Co, 32P,35S,75Se, or 65Zn) and were analyzed for relative concentrations of these elements in their tissue ...

Are long-term growth responses to elevated pCO2 sex-specific in fish?
Whether marine fish will grow differently in future high pCO2 environments remains surprisingly uncertain. Long-term and whole-life cycle effects are particularly unknown, because such experiments are logistically challenging, space demanding, exclude ...

Changing salinity in estuaries due to sea level rise and altered rainfall patterns, as a result of climate change, has the potential to influence the interactions of aquatic pollutants as well as to alter their toxicity. From a chemical property point of
