Beyond Hard Parts: Metabarcoding Advances Dietary Resolution in Threatened Amazonian Elasmobranchs

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Elasmobranchs are highly vulnerable and are considered one of the most threatened vertebrates worldwide. Insights into diet can improve conservation measures. The bias of traditional morphological methods towards taxa with distinctive hard parts makes metabarcoding analysis a complementary tool to assess diet composition. Here, we analysed the

Trophic Ecology of Loggerhead Turtles (Caretta caretta) in Southern Brazil: Insights From Stable Isotopes

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the trophic ecology of loggerhead turtles recorded stranded along the Paraná coast in southern Brazil. Carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes were analysed in muscle tissues from 20 loggerhead turtles and in 69 specimens representing 12 prey species (molluscs, crustaceans and teleost fishes).

Distribution of Micropogonias furnieri (Pisces: Sciaenidae) in Sepetiba Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Revista de biologia tropical, 2002
Distribution of Micropogonias furnieri in the Sepetiba Bay, an ecosystem highly important as rearing ground for this species that represents 5.8% of the numerical catches by otter trawling, was analyzed based in monthly and bi-monthly samplings from two programmes (beach seines = continental margin; and otter trawl = inside of the Bay), over three ...

Peptides From Animal and Fishery Byproducts: Uplifting the Functionality of Fifth Quarter

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
Recovery of peptide reduces pollution, increases return, and functionality of products. Meat byproducts and processing techniques raise the sustainability of the meat industry. These peptides can also be used as active components of the packaging system. Umami peptides are used as taste enhancers for the development of new products.
