Abstract Objective The Blackchin Guitarfish Glaucostegus cemiculus is endemic to the Mediterranean Sea and is critically endangered, but relevant routine laboratory data are unavailable. Our objectives were to determine the packed cell volume (PCV), comprehensive serum chemistry analytes, and serum total thyroxine (sTT4) concentration; compare serum ...

Vulnerability of Eastern Tropical Pacific chondrichthyan fish to climate change
This assessment identifies sharks' vulnerability to climate change in a data‐poor tropical region and suggests management actions. Abstract Climate change is an environmental emergency threatening species and ecosystems globally. Oceans have absorbed about 90% of anthropogenic heat and 20%–30% of the carbon emissions, resulting in ocean warming ...

SERUM COMPOSITION OF FRESHWATER STRINGRAYS (POTAMOTRYGONIDAE) ADAPTED TO FRESH AND DILUTE SEA WATER
1. Juvenile freshwater stingrays of the family Potamotrygonidae are unable to survive in salinities in excess of 20.6‰ when gradually acclimated.2. No differences were observed in blood pH or hematological parameters when fish adapted to a salinity of 14.5‰ were compared with freshwater controls.3. Significant increases were found in serum sodium (21%),

Stirring, charging, and picking: hunting tactics of potamotrygonid rays in the upper Paraná River
Hunting tactics of potamotrygonid freshwater rays remain unreported under natural conditions. Three main foraging tactics of Potamotrygon falkneri and P. motoro are described here based on underwater observations in the upper Paraná River.
