Morphological covariates of the ontogenetic shift from nauplii to copepodite prey in larval fish

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Larval fish are active planktonic predators, with many species feeding initially on copepod nauplii and gradually shifting their selection to copepodites. This study evaluated whether it is possible to develop a general widely applicable empirical model to describe the transition from feeding on copepod nauplii to copepodites in relation to ...

Modelling fishing‐induced evolution in pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) and vendace (Coregonus albula), Lake Oulujärvi, as template for ecosystem model

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fishing‐induced evolution can impact fish trait distributions, with previous studies highlighting declines in size and age at maturation. However, the effects on fish growth remain less understood, and different fishing methods may exert distinct selection pressures on populations.

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 ...

Unexpected trophic diversity in the endemic fish Orestias chungarensis in a high‐altitude freshwater ecosystem, Lake Chungará (4520 m), northern Chile

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Orestias chungarensis Vila & Pinto, 1986 is a small‐bodied (max fork length = 120 mm) cyprinodontiform fish with a very restricted global distribution. The species is limited to a single, small (283 km2), high‐altitude (4520 m) catchment located in the Altiplano of northern Chile. Until the late 20th century, O.

Low genetic variation and strong genetic structure across a range of geographical scales in European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus L.)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Populations of anadromous European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus L.) are declining across its range with mitigation efforts for this ecologically important species hindered by a lack of demographic information. Here, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and microsatellite analyses were used to describe historical and recurrent demographics for the species ...
