Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

Influence of open and closed river systems on the migrations of two northern New Zealand populations of banded kokopu (Galaxias fasciatus) [PDF]
Otolith microchemical analysis by laser ablation inductively coupled mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to investigate the migratory life histories of banded kokopu (Galaxias fasciatus) in two streams on the North Island of New Zealand.

An extraordinary gobioid fish fossil from southern france. [PDF]
The classification of gobioid fishes is still under discussion. Several lineages, including the Eleotridae and Butidae, remain difficult to characterize because synapomorphies are rare (Eleotridae) or have not yet been determined (Butidae). Moreover, the

In Channa striata (N=156; TL=17-60cm) sampled from the river Ganga, the annuli laid on different ageing structures such as otoliths (whole and sectioned), scales, opercular bone and vertebrae were observed for age estimation.

Otoliths are calcium carbonate components of the stato-acoustical organ responsible for hearing and maintenance of the body balance in teleost fish. During their formation, control over, e.g., morphology and carbonate polymorph is influenced by complex ...

Validating the growth increment periodicity in the otoliths of three small progenetic gobies
We determined the efficacy of marking the otoliths of three small-sized progenetic gobies to validate their increment periodicity. These small gobies have high mortalities and rearing difficulties, making direct validation difficult.

Morphology of sagitta, lapillus and asteriscus of Patagonian Genidens barbus
Otoliths are calcium carbonate structures, deposited as aragonite, located in the inner ear of bony fish. In recent years, they have become a useful tool for the determination of fish species, trophic content, age studies, and the identification of fish

Assessment of errors in cetacean diet analysis: in vitro digestion of otoliths [PDF]
Research into the feeding habits of cetaceans has traditionally relied on examining samples taken from the digestive tracts of commercially caught or stranded and by-caught animals. This depends on the identification and measurement of hard parts such as
