Mass stranding of common (weedy) seadragons (Phyllopteryx taeniolatus) in Sydney: impacts and implications. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Fish Biol
Abstract In April 2022, mass stranding of weedy (common) seadragons occurred, with a total of over 200 individuals washed ashore on beaches in the Sydney, Australia region, recorded by citizens. Causes of the stranding, which is unprecedented, were likely related to a series of east coast low storm events, leading to record wave heights, record coastal

Phylogeography of Microphis retzii (Bleeker, 1856) and Microphis brachyurus (Bleeker, 1854) in the Pacific. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Fish Biol
Abstract Syngnathidae are a charismatic family of teleost fishes, represented by seahorses, seadragons, and pipefishes. Syngnathidae are mainly composed of marine species, but about 30 species of pipefishes inhabit freshwater insular environments of the Indo‐Pacific realm. Recent research has shown that some freshwater pipefish species are amphidromous

Assessing the Effectiveness of Conservation Stocking for the Endangered White’s Seahorse Hippocampus whitei

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The White’s seahorse Hippocampus whitei was listed as an Endangered species in 2020 on Australian state and federal legislation, as a result of population declines across its range attributed to habitat loss over the past decade.

Performance of the long-snouted seahorse, Hippocampus guttulatus, under warming conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Temperature is a determinant cue for several behavioral, physiological, and metabolic processes in fish, which occur within a range set to optimize species fitness. Understanding how ocean warming will impact species, at individual and population levels,

Genome rearrangements, male pregnancy and immunological tolerance – the curious case of the syngnathid immune system

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The syngnathid fish group (seahorses, pipefishes and seadragons) is a fascinating lineage associated with an array of evolutionary peculiarities that include diverse morphologies and their unique male pregnancy. These oddities also extend to their immune

The response of the brood pouch transcriptome to synthetic estrogen exposure in the Gulf pipefish (Syngnathus scovelli)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Endocrine disruptors have devastating impacts on the reproductive physiology of aquatic organisms. The Gulf pipefish, Syngnathus scovelli, is a sexually dimorphic species, which demonstrates predictable morphological, physiological, behavioral, and ...
