Health risk of consuming Sphoeroides spp. from the Navachiste Lagoon complex due to its trace metals and organochlorine pesticides content [PDF]
The Navachiste complex (NAV) is impacted by neighbored human activities and is located in the southwestern coastal zone of the Gulf of California. The study determines the trace metal (TM) and organochlorine pesticides (OCP) health risk content in the ...

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

Abstract Climate change can affect the habitat of marine species and hence their persistence and adaptation. Trends in area of occurrence and population biomass were examined for 177 fish and macroinvertebrates resident to the Northeast U.S. Continental Shelf ecosystem. Samples of these organisms were taken during a time series of research bottom trawl

Abstract Aim Conservation efforts have traditionally addressed the threat of biodiversity loss by prioritizing regions and habitats with high endemic species richness. However, species‐poor habitats often harbour distinct, valuable and/or functionally unique species that contribute to regional diversity.

Between 1896 and 2020, a total of 188 fish species entered the Mediterranean Sea, mainly from the Suez Canal, but also from other human‐mediated vectors and from the Straits of Gibraltar. Cumulative occurrences, reported in 264 distribution maps, documented this phenomenon, which increased steeply after 1990, without a sign of saturation.

Connectivity of coastal and neritic fish larvae to the deep waters
Abstract Four ichthyoplankton cruises and backward tracking experiments were conducted to study the connectivity of coastal and neritic fish larvae over the continental slope and to the oceanic deep‐water region of the western Gulf of Mexico. Distribution patterns of larval abundance at oceanic stations showed higher abundance and the presence of ...

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

Sustainable aquaculture requires environmental‐friendly treatment strategies for fish diseases
Abstract Many classical therapeutants are going to be banned in Europe, and an urgent need for alternatives is emerging. This issue can be exemplified by one major parasitic disease in aquaculture and ornamental fish breeding: velvet disease. This disease, caused by dinoflagellates of the genera Amyloodinium and Piscinoodinium, is an important ...
