Restoring mangrove biodiversity: can restored mangroves support fish assemblages comparable to natural mangroves over time?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, May 2025.
Despite the recent global increase in mangrove restoration efforts, our understanding of the outcomes and recovery of biodiversity and re‐establishing functionality, such as productive fish habitat, is limited due to the lack of long‐term monitoring. Here, we used a space‐for‐time approach to investigate whether restored mangroves attain similar fish ...

Otolith shape analysis supports three cryptic species in the Stellifer punctatissimus complex (Acanthuriformes: Sciaenidae)

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology, 2022
Sciaenidae species (croakers and drums) are known for specializations in their sensory apparatus, such as otoliths and lateral line. Within this family, some Stelliferinae members remain taxonomically unresolved due to their cryptic aspects and low ...

Diel and seasonal timing of sound production by black drum (Pogonias cromis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Acoustic recorders were used to document black drum (Pogonias cromis) sound production during their spawning season in southwest Florida. Diel patterns of sound production were similar to those of other sciaenid fishes and demonstrated increased sound ...

Ichthyoplankton Adjacent to Live-Bottom Habitats in Onslow Bay, North Carolina [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The abundance and distribution of ichthyoplankton adjacent to live-bottom habitats (rock outcroppings containing rich, sessile invertebrate communities and many species of tropical and subtropical fishes) in open-shelf waters « 55-m isobath) in Onslow ...

Effects of Lotic Environmental Conditions on Larval Fish Growth and Prey Consumption

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Rivers throughout the United States have undergone extensive modifications, altering their original dynamic state. Knowledge of how flow and temperature regime alterations may affect foraging and growth of larval fishes is limited. We investigated the effects of discharge, growing degree days (GDD) and zooplankton densities on larval ...

Fish assemblages found in tidal-creek and seagrass habitats in the Suwannee River estuary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Fish assemblages were investigated in tidal-creek and seagrass habitats in the Suwannee River estuary, Florida. A total of 91,571 fish representing 43 families were collected in monthly seine samples from January 1997 to December 1999.

Investigating Genetic Diversity in Hatchery‐Produced Dentex dentex and Sciaena umbra for Restocking in Corsican Waters

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Dentex dentex and Sciaena umbra are two coastal fish species inhabiting Mediterranean waters, where they are considered threatened (assessed as ‘Vulnerable’ on the IUCN Red List). With increased knowledge of both species reproduction, they are envisioned as potential candidate species for restocking purposes around Corsica.

Environmental Factors Associated With Fish Reproduction in Regulated Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 515-530, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Humans have extensively altered rivers to accommodate anthropogenic uses. Dams modify river flow and temperature regimes important for lotic fish reproduction. Yet, assessments of fish production in relation to environmental conditions in regulated rivers are lacking but are needed to guide experimental environmental flows.
