The collapse of marine fisheries had caused a cascade of ecological, social and economic consequences. Recognizing the complex nature of the fisheries collapses is essential for understanding the impact of human activities on natural systems.

ABSTRACT The northern Humboldt Current System (nHCS) has high environmental variability that impacts key demographic and community‐scale processes. Understanding the role and ecological implications of these interannual or long‐term events is crucial in describing the dynamics of the nHCS community. Using catch data from pelagic assessment surveys from

Clarifying a trophic black box: stable isotope analysis reveals unexpected dietary variation in the Peruvian anchovy Engraulis ringens [PDF]
Background Small fishes play fundamental roles in pelagic ecosystems, channelling energy and nutrients from primary producers to higher trophic levels.

Impacts of climate‐related stressors on social group cohesion and individual sociability in fish
ABSTRACT Group‐living in animals comes with a number of benefits associated with predator avoidance, foraging, and reproduction. A large proportion of fish species display grouping behaviour. Fish may also be particularly vulnerable to climate‐related stressors including thermal variation, hypoxia, and acidification.

Can small pelagic fish landings be used as predictors of high-frequency oceanographic fluctuations in the 1–2 El Niño region? [PDF]
A group of small pelagic fish captured between 1981 and 2012 within El Niño area 1–2 by the Ecuadorian fleet was correlated with the oceanographic Multivariate ENSO Index (MEI), and the Oceanographic El Niño Index (ONI) referred to El Niño region 3–4.

Hyperostosis in Fishes: An Update With New Species Records
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.

Age of Jack mackerel Trachrus murphyi (Carangidae) using daily growth rings in sagittae otoliths
Growth of Jack mackerel (Trachurus murphyi) was estimated using daily growth rings in fish collected in central-south Chile from 2004 to 2011. The von Bertalanffy growth curve at length for both sexes (n=210 individuals) is FL = 75*[1-e-0.16(t+0 ...
