DNA‐based identification of anadromous fishes (Alosa spp., Family Clupeidae) in stomach contents of marine groundfish

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Using DNA techniques for prey identification is an emerging approach for enhancing the precision and accuracy of trophic information. We evaluated the effectiveness of DNA‐based prey identification in conjunction with visual stomach content analysis of commercially important groundfish in the nearshore Gulf of Maine, with a focus on ...

Contrasting population genomic structuring of northern pike (Esox lucius L.) in fresh‐ and brackish water environments: Implications for management and conservation

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the factors that shape population genetic structure is crucial for advancing evolutionary studies and developing effective management and conservation strategies. The northern pike (Esox lucius L.) is a top teleost predator that inhabits fresh and brackish water environments in the northern hemisphere.

Improving spine‐based age estimation in centrarchid fishes using otolith‐derived training sets

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Nonlethal age determination is a priority in fish biology contexts where sacrifice is restricted, but estimates derived from nonlethally attainable structures tend to suffer from poor precision and accuracy relative to necessarily lethal, otolith‐derived estimates.

Investigation of asymmetry in sagitta otolith features in relation to total length in Lethrinus species from the Red Sea coast of Yemen

Oceanological and Hydrobiological Studies
This study aimed to investigate the asymmetry in otolith length (OL), otolith width (OW) and otolith weight (OWe) in relation to total body length in 224 fish samples of Lethrinus borbonicus, L. letnjan and L.

Transitions in the morphological features, habitat use, and diet of young-of-the-year goosefish (Lophius americanus) [PDF]

, 2007
This study was designed to improve our understanding of transitions in the early life history and the distribution, habitat use, and diets for young-of-the-year (YOY) goosefish (Lophius americanus) and, as a result, their role in northeastern U.S ...

Lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) growth and longevity estimated from adult capture–mark–recapture data

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effective fishery management policy depends on accurate life‐history data, particularly for harvested species. Longevity is a core life‐history trait that is directly related to annual survival and lifetime reproductive potential, but fish longevity is generally not well documented, particularly for long‐lived species.

Otoliths in situ in Pinichthys shirvanensis Bannikov, 2021 (Stromateidae) from the Tarkhanian (Langhian, Middle Miocene) of the northern Caucasus (Russia)

Swiss Journal of Palaeontology
Otolith finds in situ are important for connecting the independent data sets of articulated fish skeletons and isolated otoliths in the fossil record. Here we describe an otolith in situ retrieved from a skeleton of the stromateid Pinichthys shirvanensis

Environmental effects on otolith morphology variability of European eel, Anguilla anguilla (Linnaeus, 1758), for subpopulation discrimination in Corsica

Frontiers in Marine Science
Otolith shape analysis is an efficient tool for fish stock identification. However, due to insufficient research, it remains still poorly understood concerning the European eel (Anguilla anguilla), a highly migratory catadromous and panmictic species ...

Long‐term stability of transcrestal sinus augmentation

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Transcrestal sinus augmentation has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to lateral window techniques for vertical bone augmentation in the edentulous maxilla. Since its early introduction and modification over the last several decades, this technique has demonstrated predictable outcomes for implant placement in regions with limited ...

Differences in sagittal otoliths between two morid species: insights into the genus Physiculus (Moridae: Gadiformes)

Neotropical Ichthyology
Sagittae are widely used as tools in taxonomic and ecological studies of fishes, especially when external morphological characters are conserved or ambiguous. We analyzed morphological variation between two congeneric species of Physiculus: P.
