Genetic identification of marine eels through DNA barcoding from Parangipettai coastal waters

Genomics Data, 2017
Anguilliformes, also known as “true eels”, are an ecologically diverse group of predominantly marine origin whose members were easily recognized by their extremely elongated bodies with reduced cross-sectional areas and universal lack of pelvic fins. The

Report on two species of Digenea from marine fishes in Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Two species of Digenea were recorded for the first time in South America and in new hosts: Acanthostomum spiniceps (Looss, 1896) (Cryptogonimidae) was reported from Astroscopus sexspinosus (Steindachner, 1877) (Uranoscopidae) and Diplomonorchis ...

A lightweight clear liquid optical chamber baited remote underwater video system for monitoring fish in turbid coastal wetlands

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Clear liquid optical chamber baited remote underwater video systems (CLOC‐BRUV) are an effective option for assessing fish assemblages in turbid water, but current designs are limited by their large size and high operational costs. We developed a lightweight CLOC‐BRUV unit and evaluated its performance through proof‐of‐concept trials and field

Seasonal Changes of Fish Assemblages in a Subtropical Lagoon in the SE Gulf of California

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The composition and seasonal changes of the fish assemblage in a coastal lagoon system in southeastern Gulf of California were assessed from December 2001 to July 2005. A total of 20,877 organisms belonging to 191 species and 47 families were analyzed. We determined that almost all the species inhabiting the system were found; however some rare species

Resurrection of Ophichthus zophistius (Actinopterygii: Anguilliformes: Ophichthidae), with a revised diagnosis of O. altipennis

Zootaxa, 2020
Pisoodonophis zophistius Jordan and Snyder 1901 is redescribed as a valid species of Ophichthus Ahl 1789 based on 46 specimens including the holotype. Although this name has been synonymized under Ophichthus altipennis (Kaup 1856), the former can be distinguished from the latter by a relatively acute snout (vs.

eDNA signals improve local predictions of fish abundances in Mediterranean coastal ecosystems

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study demonstrates that integrating eDNA metabarcoding data into species distribution models can improve fish abundance predictions, especially for site‐attached and reef‐associated species. This approach provides a scalable and cost‐effective tool for monitoring, impact assessment, spatial planning and adaptive management of marine resources ...

River Ecosystem Degradation and Its Impacts on Fish Biodiversity and Capture Fisheries in Major River Basins of Bangladesh: A Policy‐Focused Study

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the widespread degradation of river ecosystems in Bangladesh and its impact on fish biodiversity and identifies potential strategies for ecosystem restoration. Combining community perceptions from focus group discussions (FGDs) with fish market study for spatial analyses of fish species diversity across the Barak–Meghna,

First records of two species of snake eels, Aplatophis chauliodus and Ophichthus hyposagmatus (Actinopterygii: Anguilliformes: Ophichthidae), from Mexico [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria
We report herewith the presence of two species of rare snake eels, Aplatophis chauliodus Böhlke, 1956 (499 mm in total length [TL]) and Ophichthus hyposagmatus McCosker et Böhlke, 1984 (486 mm TL), in Mexican waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Ophichthids (Ophichthidae: Anguilliformes) within the body cavity of marine fishes: pseudoparasites? [PDF]

Marine Biodiversity Records, 2011
Three snake eels (Ophichthidae) were found in three common pandoras (Pagellus erythrinus) from the north-western Mediterranean: two in the stomach and one embedded in the body cavity. This incidence corroborates previous records of snake eels found within fish.
