Comparison of injuries to New Zealand rock lobsters (Jasus edwardsii) caused by hand versus snare collection

, 2009
Following the prohibition in New Zealand of lobster snares in late 2005, we undertook research to compare the frequency and extent of injuries to rock lobsters (Jasus edwardsii) (Hutton) caused by recreational SCUBA divers using lobster snares compared ...

Recommended TAC 2012 for the South Coast Rock Lobster Resource using re-tuned OMP 2010

, 2023
Re-tuned OMP 2010 (Johnston and Butterworth 2010) is used here to calculate the TAC for the South Coast Rock Lobster resource for the 2012 season. (Note the convention that 2010 is used to refer to the 2010/2011 season.)

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1091-1119, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Initial OMP-2023 results for the South Coast Rock Lobster resource

, 2023
Projected outputs for the current OMP-2019, as simulation tested with the new 2022 updated operating model, are presented. It is suggested that a new “target” should be set, as the current Bsp(2025/2006) target no longer seems appropriate.

Feeding Ecology of Gould's Arrow Squid Nototodarus gouldi (Cephalopoda: Ommastrephidae) in Aotearoa New Zealand Waters

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Squids are important components of marine ecosystems because of their role as both predator and prey. Across the Tasman Sea, Gould's arrow squid (Nototodarus gouldi) is a commercially targeted ommastrephid squid that supports an economically important fishery.

A Niche for Nasty Nippers: Exploring Harvest Management for Control of Invasive Asian Paddle Crabs in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 2, June 2026.
The invasive Asian paddle crab Charybdis japonica continues to expand its range across northern Aotearoa New Zealand, raising ecological, social, and economic concerns. This study theoretically assesses whether harvest‐based management—potentially including commercial, recreational, or customary fisheries—could contribute to population suppression ...

A New Population of the Small European Locust Lobster (Scyllarus arctus) on Artificial Reefs (Central Adriatic Sea)

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Lobsters, including the Small European locust lobster Scyllarus arctus, are distributed throughout the Mediterranean Sea, inhabiting rocky bottoms, muddy substrates and seagrass meadows. Despite increasing scientific interest, S. arctus remains understudied, and available information on its distribution is largely limited to grey literature ...

Latitudinal variation in seasonal cycle mediates population differences in barnacle reproduction phenology

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The timing of life history events around reproduction and early development is critical in population dynamics, and it can determine recruitment success, species dispersal, and population connectivity. In ectotherms, as well as in plants and fungi, phenology is mediated by the nonlinear effects of temperature on physiology and development ...

Rapidly declining seagrass meadows in Brazil: Findings from satellite imagery and local knowledge

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1155-1171, May 2026.
Abstract Due to the limitations of individual monitoring approaches, integrating social perceptions with multiple advanced technologies provides a new opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of ecosystem degradation. We combined historical aerial mapping, satellite imagery, semi‐structured interviews with local stakeholders, and a bilingual ...

Habitat‐and‐Site Dependent Variations on Crustaceans Associated With Ecklonia radiata Holdfast Along the South African Wild Coast

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The crustaceans associated with Ecklonia radiata holdfast varied substantially between rock pools and gullies in different sites. More species inhabited the gullies than the rock pools. This pattern was more prominent in the Dwesa site, while positive associations between abundance and richness were more pronounced in the rock pools.
