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,

Period of the day drives distinctions in the taxonomic and functional structures of reef fish assemblages

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 1, Page 103-117, January 2026.
Abstract Circadian processes are key drivers of animal behaviour, influencing patterns of activity, resource partitioning and competition avoidance. Studies evaluating circadian changes on the structure of marine assemblages are lacking, especially for reef fish.

Elemental Homeostasis Deciphers the Multidimensional Stoichiometric Niche of Fish Communities in the Beibu Gulf

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Significant interspecific variations were observed in the elemental composition among fish from different families in the Beibu dGulf, differentiated or overlapping multidimensional stoichiometric niches exist among taxa of different fish families.

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.

Sulawesi stream fish communities depend on connectivity and habitat diversity

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 106, Issue 2, Page 358-375, February 2025.
Abstract Streams provide an array of habitat niches that may act as environmental filters for fish communities. The tropical island of Sulawesi in Indonesia is located in the Wallacea, a region isolated by marine barriers from the Asian and Australian faunas.
