OTOLITH MORPHOLOGY OF SOME FRESHWATER FISHES OF IRAN

open access: yes‬‭Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 2008
Otoliths or ear stones are small white bodies present in the ear of bony fishes. Otoliths are important in keeping fish position and steadiness and also are useful structures in hearing.

Age, growth, mortality, and radiometric age validation of gray snapper (Lutjanus griseus) from Louisiana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The gray snapper (Lutjanus griseus) is a temperate and tropical reef fish that is found along the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts of the southeastern United States.

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

First evidence of otolith abnormalities in Belone belone from the Sea of Marmara: An integrative approach to morphological deformities with light and scanning electron microscopy

open access: yesOceanological and Hydrobiological Studies
This study is the first of its kind, providing detailed evidence of otolith abnormalities in Belone belone in the Darıca coast of the Sea of Marmara (Türkiye), using an integrative approach that combines light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (

Fish Otoliths as indicators: results of the V International Otolith Symposium (IOS2014)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
The implementation of ecosystem-based approaches to marine management points to several shared objectives between conservation and fisheries management that require: better knowledge of the life history of the exploited resources; to elucidate the ...

Validation of daily growth increments and estimation of growth rates of larval and early juvenile black skipjack, Euthynnus lineatus, using otoliths [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
ENGLISH: Increments in otoliths (sagittae) were examined, using light and scanning electron microscopy, to determine ages and estimate growth rates of larval and early-juvenile black skipjack, Euthynnus lineatus.

Integrating Sr isotopes, microchemistry, and genetics to reconstruct Salmonidae species and life history

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent approaches to fisheries research emphasize the importance of the coproduction of knowledge in building resilient and culturally mindful fisheries management frameworks. Despite widespread recognition of the need for Indigenous knowledge and historical reference points as baseline data, archaeological data are rarely included in ...

Predicting the age of sardine juveniles (Sardina pilchardus) from otolith and fish morphometric characteristics

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2015
An age prediction model based on individual morphometric characteristics (total length; weight) and otolith morphometric characteristics (diameter; weight) was investigated for juvenile sardine, Sardina pilchardus (Walbaum, 1792).

Annual, seasonal and spatial differences in the growth rate of Baltic cod larvae and early juveniles in relation to zooplankton biomass fluctuations in 2006-2014

open access: yesOceanological and Hydrobiological Studies, 2023
It is an acknowledged theory that a faster growth rate, determined by various environmental drivers, may boost the survival of larval and juvenile fish. In this study we examined the differences in the growth rate of larval and juvenile cod (age 2 – 136 ...

Validation of back-calculation equations for juvenile bluefish (Pomatomus saltatrix) with the use of tetracycline-marked otoliths [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In recent years, a decrease in the abundance of bluefish (Pomatomus saltatrix) has been observed (Fahay et al., 1999; Munch and Conover, 2000) that has led to increased interest in a better understanding the life history of the species.
