Abstract Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) are a long‐lived, slow‐growing deep‐sea species endemic to the Southern Hemisphere and the focus of longline fisheries managed to ensure sustainable exploitation. Managing the fisheries relies on accurate stock assessments that include pertinent biological and exploitation processes.

Age, growth and sexual dimorphism of the monkeyface prickleback (Cebidichthys violaceus)
Abstract Accurate estimates of age, growth and maturation are fundamental to fisheries assessment, conservation and the development of emerging aquaculture species. However, life‐history parameters can vary within species and may be influenced by factors such as sexual dimorphism, which is often poorly quantified in non‐commercial or understudied ...

Precision and Bias of Cleithra and Sagittal Otoliths Used to Estimate Ages of Northern Pike
Abstract Cleithra are thought to accurately record age information and produce the most reliable age estimates relative to other calcified structures (e.g., scales) for long-lived species of Esocidae such as muskellunge Esox masquinongy and northern pike E. lucius.

Abstract Partial migration, in which migratory and resident individuals coexist within a population, is widespread in fishes and contributes to population resilience. However, the role of sex in shaping migratory strategies remains poorly understood. Herein, we examined partial migration in Japanese seabass Lateolabrax japonicus using sex ratios and ...

Pitfalls in diagnosing and long‐term management of ceroid lipofuscinosis NCL4A in a mixed‐breed dog
Abstract An 8‐year‐old, spayed, female, mixed‐breed dog was presented with a 9‐month history of occasionally stumbling on walks, having difficulty navigating stairs and jumping into the car. A prior computed tomography scan of the head revealed mild leptomeningeal enhancement and suggested meningoencephalitis.

Otolith biomineralization results from biochemical processes regulated by the interaction of internal (physiological) and external (environmental) factors which lead to morphological and ultrastructural variability at intra- and interspecific levels. The

ABSTRACT Biophysical processes associated with large‐scale nearshore oceanographic upwelling can influence coral reef communities by increasing the delivery of nutrient subsidies and food resources to reefs. However, these processes occur alongside anthropogenic activities that may alter ecological patterns across coral reef ecosystems.

ABSTRACT The linkage between growth rate and feeding success in fish larvae has received much attention as a potential indicator of future growth and survival potential. Given the increasing evidence that the growth–survival relationship is highly variable, the growth–feeding linkage would also exhibit variable dynamics among cohorts of the same ...
