Neogene Caribbean elasmobranchs: diversity, paleoecology and paleoenvironmental significance of the Cocinetas Basin assemblage (Guajira Peninsula, Colombia) [PDF]
The Cocinetas Basin is located on the eastern flank of the Guajira Peninsula, northern Colombia (southern Caribbean). During the late Oligocene through the Pliocene, much of the basin was submerged.

The Overlooked Threat of Global Warming on Elasmobranch Fertility
ABSTRACT Climate change is increasingly recognised as a critical threat to global biodiversity, yet its impacts on reproductive processes remain poorly understood in many marine taxa. Elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) represent a particularly vulnerable group due to their peculiar life histories, low fecundity, and diverse reproductive modes.

Ichthyological Bulletin of the J.L.B. Smith Institute of Ichthyology; No. 43 [PDF]
A new species of stingray, Hexatrygon bickelli Heemstra and Smith, is described from a specimen washed up on a beach at Port Elizabeth on the south coast of South Africa. This new species differs from all other batoid fishes in having six gill arches and

Molecular phylogeny, including a new species of Anindobothrium (Cestoda, Rhinebothriidea) from the Southern eagle ray Myliobatis goodei, finally solves the taxonomic enigma of Phyllobothrium myliobatidis [PDF]
During a parasitological survey of tapeworms from Myliobatis goodei Garman, 1885 (Myliobatiformes: Myliobatidae) in coastal waters off Argentina in the Southwestern Atlantic, a new rhinebothriidean cestode species, Anindobothrium danielae sp.

The Global Threat to Manta and Mobula Rays [PDF]
Manta and mobula rays span the tropics of the world and are among the most captivating and charismatic of marine species. However, their survival is severely threatened by growing fisheries pressure driven by demand for the gill rakers that the animals ...

The lack of biometric data on chondrichthyan species has impeded the implementation of management strategies essential for the conservation of sharks and rays captured using different fishing gears in coastal ecosystems. This study aims to assess morphometric relationships (length–weight [LW], length–dorsal length [DL], and length–disc width [DW]) and ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of human activities on fish communities is critical for the effective conservation of Amazonian ecosystems. In this study, we sampled environmental DNA (eDNA) from 17 sites (lakes and rivers) in two Peruvian national reserves, Pacaya‐Samiria and Allpahuayo‐Mishana, using a metabarcoding approach with four genetic ...
