The gills of teleost fishes are responsible both for gas exchangein respiration and salt transport in osmoregulation (JOBLING, 1995; ZADUNAISKY, 1996; PERRY, 1997; VAN DER HEIJDEN et al., 1997; EVANS et al., 1999; EVANS et al., 2005). In marine teleosts the gill epithelium secretes salt mainly through chloride cells (JOBLING, 1995; ZADUNAISKY, 1996 ...

Natural products from ethnodirected studies: revisiting the ethnobiology of the zombie poison. [PDF]
Wade Davis′s study of Haitian “zombification” in the 1980s was a landmark in ethnobiological research. His research was an attempt to trace the origins of reports of “undead” Haitians, focusing on the preparation of the zombification poison. Starting with this influential ethnopharmacological research, this study examines advances in the pharmacology ...

Multidecadal shifts in fish community diversity across a dynamic biogeographic transition zone
Abstract Aim A 21‐year fisheries‐independent monitoring dataset was used to explore fish community diversity across a latitudinal gradient to quantify how diversity has changed and relate those changes in diversity to changes in the abiotic environment.
