Fish scale identification: From individual to species-specific shape variability [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2017
Background. Species identification from recovered fish scales, e.g., from the sediment or stomach contents, has proven to be problematic for clupeid species.

Age, growth and mortality rates of round sardinella, Sardinella aurita (Valenciennes, 1810) from the Senegalese coasts (West Africa)

International Journal of Fisheries and Aquaculture, 2019
Sardinella aurita is the main species exploited by small-scale fisheries in Senegal and represents an important source of low cost protein in the Senegalese market. The objective of this study was to determine the age, growth and mortality parameters of S. aurita obtained from the Senegalese coastal waters. Age, growth parameters and mortality rates of

Untangling Tales of Tropical Sardines: Local Knowledge From Fisheries in Timor-Leste

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
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.

Environmental drivers influencing the abundance of round sardinella (Sardinella aurita) and European sprat (Sprattus sprattus) in different areas of the Mediterranean Sea

Mediterranean Marine Science, 2021
Data on Sardinella aurita (round sardinella) and Sprattus sprattus (European sprat) in the Mediterranean Sea are limited due to their scarce commercial interest, at least in European countries. Yet, these two small pelagic fish, sitting at opposite ends of the thermal range, could be interesting sentinel species to monitor the effects of climate change

Age and growth pattern of the round sardinella Sardinella aurita Valenciennes, 1847 (Clupeidae) in the eastern central Adriatic Sea

, 2011
A total of 2,033 round sardinella specimens were analysed from November 2007 to January 2009. A monthly random sampling of purse seine catches in the eastern central Adriatic Sea was used. The total length of males (N = 983) varied from 11.5 to 28.0 cm (mean ± SD = 21.8 ± 3.21 cm). It ranged from 11.0 to 32.5 cm (mean ± SD = 22.5 ± 3.67 cm) for females

Discards of the purse seine fishery targeting small pelagic fish in the eastern Mediterranean Sea

Scientia Marina, 2012
We analysed data collected on board commercial purse seine vessels in the Aegean and Ionian Seas (eastern Mediterranean Sea, Greece) in 13 seasonal sampling periods from 2003 to 2008 in order to describe the composition of the retained and discarded ...

Larval condition and growth of Sardinella brasiliensis (Steindachner, 1879): preliminary results from laboratory studies [PDF]

, 2003
Brazilian sardine, the most important resource along the southeastern Brazilian coast, presented great variations and declines in its stocks. The main factors contributing to this are: oceanographic structure changes; recruitment failures; excessive ...

Mass mortality event of round sardinella Sardinella aurita Valenciennes associated with Glugea Thélohan, 1891 microsporidian infection off the southern Italian coast [PDF]

Journal of Fish Diseases
AbstractIntracellular parasites of the genus Glugea Thélohan, 1891 (Microsporidia) comprise about 34 putative species capable of causing high morbidity and mortality in freshwater and marine teleost fishes. In this study, we report on the first mass mortality event associated with Glugea sp.

Indigenous versus Lessepsian Hosts: Nervous Necrosis Virus (NNV) in Eastern Mediterranean Sea Fish

Viruses, 2020
Viruses are among the most abundant and diverse biological components in the marine environment. In finfish, viruses are key drivers of host diversity and population dynamics, and therefore, their effect on the marine environment is far-reaching.
