Contrasting life‐history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia Sea

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Comprehending a species' life‐history strategies is crucial to inform effective conservation efforts. Commercial fishing impacts icefish (family: Channichthyidae) in the Scotia Sea, but detailed information on species‐specific life histories remains largely unknown.

Size‐selective mortality evolutionarily alters collective behaviour in response to predation risk in a zebrafish (Danio rerio) harvest‐induced selection model

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Intensive multigenerational size‐selective mortality has been found to alter collective properties like shoaling via evolutionary adaptations of individual‐level behavioural traits. For example, experimental populations of zebrafish (Danio rerio) experiencing intensive large size‐selective mortality over multiple generations developed less ...

Speciation of European bullheads (Cottus spp.): The next problem for taxonomy of northern freshwater fishes

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract High morphological and ecological diversity displayed by European bullheads led Freyhof et al. (2005) to describe 15 nominal species. However, the basis for declaring these nominal species is contentious due to a lack of rigorous statistical analysis of morphological variations among populations, limitations in the inferences made from ...

Diet of juvenile skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris: Ontogenetic shifts, predator–prey size ratios and mouth gape allometry

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris inhabits Gulf of Mexico drainages, primarily the Mississippi River Basin, and estuarine environments in the Gulf of Mexico. The trophic ecology of the skipjack herring is poorly understood, therefore we quantified the length, mouth gape and gut contents of juvenile skipjack herring from the Mississippi ...

The state of knowledge on four families of Syngnathoidei fishes (Teleostei: Syngnathiformes): Aulostomidae, Centriscidae, Fistulariidae and Solenostomidae

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...
