Mesophotic animal forests of the Aegean Sea support fish diversity hotspots under high fishing pressure

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Marine animal forests (MAFs) are dense aggregations of habitat‐forming species that constitute essential habitats for diverse taxa including fish. However, the study of MAFs and their associated fauna remains largely skewed to their shallowest occurrence, above 30 m depth.

Habitat characteristics drive fish recruitment enhancement in threatened coastal nursery habitats

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our findings underscore the importance of habitat attributes and physical settings as the key predictors of fish enhancement across threatened coastal nurseries of North America. Restoration and management efforts should aim to optimize these factors to maximize fish recruitment potential amid ecosystem degradation. Abstract Structured coastal habitats

Use of otolith shape to differentiate two lagoon populations of Pagellus erythrinus (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Sparidae) in Tunisian waters

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2018
Background. The common pandora, Pagellus erythrinus (Linnaeus, 1758), is widely distributed in the Black and the Mediterranean seas. Therefore, P. erythrinus is a valuable component of the commercial fishery in Tunisia and plays an important role in ...

Refining a molecular tool kit to capture tropicalization in Mediterranean marine protected areas

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
We assess complementarity and trade‐offs between visual census and eDNA metabarcoding for monitoring fish community changes in MPAs. Abstract Tropicalization, the process by which tropical species expand their ranges poleward due to global ocean warming, is a prominent threat to Mediterranean marine ecosystems, challenging their effective management ...
