Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

‘It's not much, but it's honest work’: The status of environmental DNA analyses of fish biodiversity in southern Africa

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) biodiversity surveys have the power to transform the detection of species in natural environments, which is crucial for the conservation and management of freshwater, estuarine and marine environments. Globally, eDNA‐based analyses have increased significantly, with fishes being the most widely studied aquatic ...

Hidden partnerships in the dark: Cold‐water coral–fish associations in Fiordland, New Zealand

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The ichthyofauna of the Fiordland ecosystems of southern Aotearoa New Zealand was documented during four remotely operating vehicle (ROV) dives between 100 and 350 m depth. A total of 26 fish species were documented within two fiord basins.

The state of knowledge on four families of Syngnathoidei fishes (Teleostei: Syngnathiformes): Aulostomidae, Centriscidae, Fistulariidae and Solenostomidae

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Return ticket: spatial use patterns of white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) from a shark-bite mitigation program in eastern Australia

Frontiers in Fish Science
The inherent susceptibility of white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias), coupled with reported declines in abundance, has led to their global listing as “Vulnerable”, prompting substantial conservation efforts.

A Binary Chaotic White Shark Optimizer

Mathematics
This research presents a novel hybrid approach, which combines the White Shark Optimizer (WSO) metaheuristic algorithm with chaotic maps integrated into the binarization process. Inspired by the predatory behavior of white sharks, WSO has shown great potential to navigate complex search spaces for optimization tasks. On the other hand, chaotic maps are

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Subtropical marine reserve as key habitats for the critically endangered sand tiger shark (Carcharias taurus) in the Southwestern Atlantic

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study documents the occurrence, seasonal patterns and reproductive activity of the sand tiger shark (Carcharias taurus) within a no‐take marine protected area in southeastern Brazil, using Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) and diving records.

A Review of Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs for Food‐Producing Animals With a Focus on Potential Applications for Farmed Finfish

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In finfish aquaculture, there are several inflammatory diseases impacting productivity and animal welfare, however there are limited options available to veterinarians to treat inflammation and pain in fish. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in terrestrial animals raised for human consumption to treat a range of ...
