Round sardinella (Sardinella aurita) and anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) abundance as related to temperature in the senegalese waters [PDF]
We report the use of generalized additive models to define possible thermal windows related to high abundance of Sardinella aurita and Engraulis encrasicolus in Senegalese waters. Landing data from 1999 to 2009, considered as an abundance index, remotely sensed thermal data (sea surface temperature, SST from AVHRR Pathfinder V5) and a temporal variable

The round sardinella (Sardinella aurita Valenciennes, 1847) from the NW Mediterranean: a healthy and safe choice for human consumption [PDF]
The round sardinella (Sardinella aurita Valenciennes, 1847) is a common pelagic species in the NW Mediterranean, with a low economic value. To evaluate its potential as a resource, a comprehensive study including the nutritional status (proximate and fatty acid composition), zoonotic parasites and heavy metals of fish captured off the coast of ...

Studying of <i>Trachurus trachurus</i> (Linnaeus, 1758) Population Reproductive Dynamics in the Eastern Moroccan Mediterranean. [PDF]
Horse mackerel (Trachurus trachurus) populations along the eastern Moroccan Mediterranean coast were studied over 12 months using 390 specimens to assess reproductive ecology. The species showed two spawning periods—late winter to early spring and summer—and exhibited fractional spawning, with males being more predominant.

Untangling Tales of Tropical Sardines: Local Knowledge From Fisheries in Timor-Leste
Tropical sardines (Family Clupeidae) are an important component of many marine fisheries in the Indo-West Pacific region. In Timor-Leste, a small, less-developed country within this region, ‘sardiña’ are some of the more commonly caught and consumed fish.

Diet of round sardinella, Sardinella aurita, larvae in relation to plankton availability in the NW Mediterranean [PDF]
The present study analyses for the first time the diet of larvae of the clupeid Sardinella aurita in the NW Mediterranean. Gut contents of larvae from first feeding (3.9 mm) to early posflexion stages (14.7 mm) were analysed. The type and abundance of ingested prey were related to the plankton composition in the environment in order to determine prey ...
