Conservation of whales, considered as umbrella species in marine environments, requires to be able to understand their relationships with ecosystem components such as prey species, including pelagic fish. However, studying such relationships in nature is

ABSTRACT Most research comparing wild and hatchery‐produced fish focuses on recently stocked individuals. As a result, these studies only investigate the behavior of naive hatchery fish, leaving a knowledge gap regarding long‐term survivors. We compared the movement, space use, and survival of wild and hatchery‐reared brown trout (Salmo trutta) that ...

Radiodiagnostic method for studying swimbladder inflammation caused by Anguillicola crassus (Nematoda:Dracunculoidea) [PDF]
The nematode Anguillicola crassus appeared in Europe about 15 yr ago, and has subsequently become recognised as a cause of major pathological lesions in the swimbladder of the European eel Anguilla anguilla. The radiographic method reported in this paper

ABSTRACT The study of low‐latitude populations can inform our understanding of how cold‐adapted species might respond to environmental change. The vendace (Coregonus albula) is a lacustrine fish that is distributed across northern Europe. In the UK, there are two extant native vendace populations.
