Period of the day drives distinctions in the taxonomic and functional structures of reef fish assemblages

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Circadian processes are key drivers of animal behaviour, influencing patterns of activity, resource partitioning and competition avoidance. Studies evaluating circadian changes on the structure of marine assemblages are lacking, especially for reef fish.

Life‐stage and environmental influences on the recruitment of African freshwater eels into the uThukela River, South Africa

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anguillid eel recruitment into east‐flowing rivers along the east coast of Africa is poorly understood. The few harvest records of anguillid eels from South Africa have highlighted anthropogenically derived environmental stressors as risks for further decline.

Age and growth of the endemic groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a heavily exploited batoid in the Brazilian Meridional Margin (21–34° S)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Life‐history data are often lacking for exploited elasmobranchs, jeopardizing proper management and conservation measures for this vulnerable group. Herein, we provided age and growth estimates for the groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a medium‐sized, heavily exploited batoid endemic to the southwestern Atlantic Ocean.

Bayesian hierarchical stock–recruitment models for setting conservation limits for Atlantic salmon stocks in Scotland

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) populations in Scotland are subject to active management and conservation practices which require biological reference points (BRPs), specifically conservation limits, defined at the level of the stock. Acquiring the data necessary to independently derive these BRPs for all managed populations in Scotland is ...

The theory of island biogeography and the stability of oceanic reef fish communities

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reef fish assemblages on oceanic islands offer valuable insights into ecological and evolutionary processes, yet their temporal dynamics remain poorly understood. This study evaluates the theory of island biogeography (TIB) with long‐term ecological monitoring to assess how island area, isolation from nearest reef and distance from mainland ...
