Size at sexual maturity in female Euphylax robustus (Brachyura: Portunidae) collected in coastal waters off Ecuador [PDF]
Size at sexual morphometric and physiological maturity was estimated in females of the swimming crab, Euphylax robustus. The individuals were caught as bycatch in an artisanal trawl fishery targeting Titi shrimp (Protrachypene precipua) in coastal waters

The present study aimed to investigate the reproductive cycle and size at first maturity of Penaeus schmitti through a macro and microscopic approach. Between August 2011 and July 2012, 1169 specimens were collected by an artisanal fishing vessel operating a double trawl off the coast of Pernambuco, northeast Brazil. The total proportion of males (42%

Population structure, size at first sexual maturity, and feeding ecology of Conodon nobilis (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Haemulidae) from the coasts of Pernambuco, north-eastern Brazil [PDF]
Background. Although the information on fish ecology and population dynamic are fundamental for fisheries assessment and the development of sustainable management practices, there is still a gap for bycatch species, mainly in tropical coastal areas. The aim of the presently reported study was to describe the feeding habitats, mean length of maturation,
