Hyperostosis in Fishes: An Update With New Species Records

Journal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 11, November 2024.
Hyperostosis is an enigmatic dimension of diversity in the anatomy of fishes. This excessive overgrowth of bone is natural in origin, occurs almost exclusively in marine fishes, is generally species‐specific, and becomes fully developed only in large individuals. We document hyperostosis in 35 families, 89 genera, and 153 species.

Habitat selection by fish in an artificial reef in Ilha Grande Bay, Brazil

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2001
The use of artificial structures as a shelter for fishes was evaluated aiming to assess increase in fish abundance in Ilha Grande Bay at Southeast Brazilian coast (Lat: 22°8'-23°5' S; Long. 44º05’-44º40’W).

Low retention of restocked laboratory‐reared long‐spined sea urchins Diadema antillarum due to Spanish hogfish Bodianus rufus predation

Restoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 8, November 2024.
The die‐off of the long‐spined sea urchin Diadema antillarum in the 1980s highlighted its crucial role as a primary grazer in tropical western Atlantic coral reefs. However, natural recovery has been slow, exacerbated by a new die‐off in 2022. Interest in actively restoring D.

Using Bayesian multispecies models to evaluate fish and invertebrate detection probability and distribution in the hypersaline Bahia Grande tidal basin

Marine and Coastal Fisheries, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Objective In 2000, the Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge acquired the Bahia Grande (Texas) management unit, a space that had lain barren and arid for 70 years. A large cooperative partnership launched a restoration project to replenish the basin and recover its original tidal hydrology.

DNA barcoding, identification, and validation of the pufferfish (Order: Tetraodontiformes) in China coastal waters

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.
In this study, 616 samples of Tetraodontiformes were identified by using morphological characteristics and DNA barcoding technology. It provided molecular evidence for clarifying the valid species names of L. spadiceus and T. rubripes. The results can provide reliable DNA barcoding information for the identification and classification of ...

Length‐Weight and Length‐Length Relationships of 39 Demersal Fish Species of an Estuarine‐Coastal Ecosystem from the Northwestern of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The length‐weight (LW) and length‐length (LL) relationships of 39 demersal fish species belonging to 19 families were calculated. Fish samples were collected monthly during the open (September–February) and close (March–August) shrimp fishing seasons from 2014 to 2022 by the artisanal fishery in the Bahía Magdalena‐Almejas lagoon system (BMA), using ...
