Reproductive Biology of Red Pandora (Pagellus bellottii Steindachner, 1882) from the Coast of Ghana and Implications for Management

Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Journal of Marine Sciences and Fisheries
A total of 933 samples of Pagellus bellottii were obtained from the coast of Ghana between January and December 2019, from commercial catches to determine the sex ratio, maturity stages, spawning period, and length at first maturity.

A Comparison of DNA Metabarcoding Cloacal Swabs and Stomach Contents for Shark Diet Reconstruction

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Our results indicate that the less invasive, non‐lethal method of DNA metabarcoding cloacal swabs provided higher taxonomic resolution than more common methods for studying shark trophic ecology (i.e., morphological stomach contents identification and trophic biomarkers) with no statistical difference in overall diet description between cloacal swabs ...

Investigating Environmental DNA Variability and Species Detections Through Passive and Active Sampling Across Time: A Case Study From a Hyper‐Diverse Coastal System

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This study compared the ability of active and passive eDNA filtration methods to capture environmental DNA in a marine environment with highly variable eDNA signals. Active sampling detected a greater proportion of fish biodiversity, whereas passive sampling detected a larger proportion of metazoa, with a trend of significant accumulation of numbers of

Reproductive histology of the saddled seabream Oblada melanura in the southern Mediterranean Sea (Tunisian coast)

Oceanological and Hydrobiological Studies
The saddle seabream, Oblada melanura, is an important species in Mediterranean coastal fisheries. The artisanal gillnet fishery on Tunisia’s northern coast was sampled on a monthly basis between April 2015 and March 2016.

Cytogenetic studies in Brazilian marine Sciaenidae and Sparidae fishes (Perciformes)

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2008
Fishes from the families Sciaenidae and Sparidae, the former comprising coastal species associated with shallow waters on the continental shelf and the latter composed of typically marine species, are of significant economic value. Karyotypic data are available for about 20% of the total number of species in these groups.

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

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 1, Page 103-117, January 2026.
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.

Evaluation of the reserve effect in a marine protected area in Sagres (PNSACV) [PDF]

, 2019
Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), especially when set up as marine reserves, have been found beneficial for fish communities and species worldwide. Evaluation of MPA effects needs to be done to understand whether existing protection measures are efficient ...

The Effect of Feeding With Acartia tonsa on the Ontogeny of Gilthead Seabream Larvae (Sparus aurata)

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The current study examined how feeding gilthead seabream with copepod Acartia tonsa impacts the ontogeny of the digestive system and the skeleton. Six cylindroconical tanks of 100 L each were stocked with 10,000 seabream eggs. In three tanks, Acartia tonsa was also administrated from 3 to 17 days after hatching (DAH) and Brachionus sp. until 25 DAH—end
