Phylogenetic relationships analysis of the family Scombridae (Actinopterygii, Scombriformes)
Israeli Journal of Aquaculture - BamidgehScombridae is a family of pelagic marine fishes that comprises 16 genera and 51 species. This family has been of significant commercial importance throughout history; however, the phylogenetic relationships within the Scombridae have been disputed due to the unclear taxonomic boundaries of the suborder Scombroidei, which includes ...

DNA Metabarcoding Reveals the Diet and Conservation Needs of the Chinese Crested Tern and Greater Crested Terns in Zhejiang Breeding Islands. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study employs DNA metabarcoding to analyze the diet composition of the critically endangered Chinese crested tern and the greater crested tern during their breeding season in Zhejiang. The terns primarily consume epipelagic schooling fish like anchovies and mackerel, with minimal overlap with commercial fisheries (< 5% commercial fish).

Brain Morphology and Quantitative Assessment of Sensory Brain Areas in Southern Bluefin Tuna, Thunnus maccoyii (Scombridae, Teleostei). [PDF]
J Comp NeurolThe absolute and relative volume of major sensory and integrative brain regions of the southern bluefin tuna Thunnus maccoyii are examined using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A dominant cerebellum projects into the midbrain ventricular space, while the optic tectum represents a smaller proportion of total brain volume than previously estimated ...

Cameras or Divers? How Baited Remote Underwater Videos and ‘Long Swims’ Underwater Visual Census Complement Each Other on Coral Reefs [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study compares baited remote underwater videos (BRUV) and a rapid timed long swim (LS) UVC method to evaluate their ability in assessing relative abundance and diversity of large predatory reef fish from nine selected families. BRUVs were more effective in detecting mobile and bait‐attracted taxa such as Carangidae and recorded up to 28 unique ...

Use of Citizen Science to Determine Prey Partitioning Between Two Coastal Raptors. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn Australia, Eastern Osprey (Pandion haliaetus cristatus) and White‐bellied Sea‐Eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) occupy the same ecological niche and are suspected of partitioning prey resources. This study investigated this through evaluating the breadth, overlap and partitioning of diets recorded from social media posts.
