Diet composition of fish species from the southern continental shelf of Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The diet composition of 30 fish species belonging to 16 families from the Pacific Coast of Colombia is described. Benthic crustaceans (37.5%) and bony fishes (23.7%, chiefly demersal) were the most important food items for the fish species analyzed. Data

Cross‐Validation of Diet Determination Methods for Seabird Conservation

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
This study on the diet of the endangered New Zealand king shag (Leucocarbo carunculatus) compared the frequency of occurrence of fishes detected from the same regurgitated pellets (n = 191) using both hard parts and DNA metabarcoding methodologies.

Distribution and some biological parameters of the red gurnard, Chelidonichthys cuculus (Actinopterygii, Scorpaeniformes, Triglidae) in the north-central Adriatic Sea [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2014
Background. Red gurnard, Chelidonichthys cuculus (Linnaeus, 1758), is distributed in the Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea, and in the eastern Atlantic Ocean from Norway to Mauritania, although it is rarely found in the North Sea and on the Norwegian shelf ...

Length-weight relationship of fishes caught by trawl off Alexandria, Egypt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This paper presents the length-weight relationship parameters (a and b) for 29 fish species, belonging to 16 families, taken by otter trawl fishing from Egyptian Mediterranean waters. The b values obtained ranged from 2.50 to 3.44 (with a mean of 2.926)

Monthly eDNA Metabarcoding Data From the Coastal North Sea Area Align With Fish Species‐Specific Life Cycle Events

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
In this study, we investigated the temporal and spatial patterns of fish communities within the 12 nautical miles limit of the Belgian part of the North Sea (BPNS) using eDNA 12S metabarcoding. Our findings revealed that while there are no temporal changes at the community level, species‐specific eDNA signals align with the species known biology in the

Spatial and Temporal Heterogeneity of Fish Spawning Dynamics on the West Florida Shelf During Fall

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 34, Issue 4, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Identifying spawning areas for economically and ecologically important fishes is critical for fisheries conservation and ecosystem‐based management. We used genetic barcoding to identify fish eggs collected across the West Florida Shelf (WFS) during September of 2013, 2014, and 2019.

Field estimates of food consumption of the searobin Prionotus punectatus (Bloch, 1797) on the continental shelf off Ubatuba, southeastern Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oceanography, 1998
Daily ration and population food consumption of juvenile and adult searobin Prionotus punctatus (54-314 mm total length) were estimated for the southeastern Brazilian shelf off Ubatuba (23°35'S, 45°00'W).

Consumption to biomass (Q/B) ratio and estimates of Q/B-predictor parameters for Caribbean fishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Estimates of the Q/B ratio and parameters of equations to 'predict' Q/B values for 116 fish stocks in the Gulf of Salamanca, Colombia are presented. A compilation of these estimates available for Caribbean Sea fishes (264 stocks) is also provided for ...

Of Biogeography, Fishes and Kelp: Environmental DNA Metabarcoding the Great African Seaforest

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim The biodiversity associated with kelp forest ecosystems is understudied globally, including in South Africa, where kelp forests have expanded their range under climate change. This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to assess fish biodiversity across an expansive range (~1000 km) of South Africa's kelp forests, contributing ...
