Wild (Atlantic/Pacific) fishes [No Abstract Available - A specimen taken in Buzzards Bay, July 15, 1899, was kept in a large pool at the Fish Commission laboratory until August 31, when it was examined for parasites. The stomach contained large numbers of bones, mostly vertebra of fish (squeteague, etc.) from which the flesh had been entirely digested. The stomach contained a large number of nematodes, which were very active and remained active for several hours in sea water. Indeed, they showed no tendency to come to rest at the time they were put in the killing fluid. While these worms have not yet been worked up, the following brief characterization may be given in this preliminary report. The general color of the body Wild (Atlantic/Pacific) Parasites of fishes collected in the Woods Bulletin of the United States Fish 6 in life was dark ashy brown; head and anterior part of the body to the base of the esophagus white.

Causey, D. 1953 Science, University of Texas 3, 5–16 Fish Health An investigation of the fishes which inhabit the extensive shallow areas and channels in the vicinity of Cedar Key, Florida, was made from June, 1950, through May, 1951. The muddy sand-bottomed "flats" supported rich growths of vegetation during the warm months and a varied and abundant fish fauna found food and shelter among the plants. Over 13,000 specimens were collected and 122 species representing 100 genera and 58 families arc included in an An ecological study of the gulf of Mexico annotated list. The kinds and numbers of fishes varied seasonally, the greatest variety of species and abundance of individuals were found during the summer and early fall.

Of the environmental factors, salinity did not appear to be critical while water temperature and bottom composition seemed to exert considerable influence on the local fish population. The Cedar Key fauna was found to consist predominantly of species more characteristically associated with temperate climate. However, comparison with the fauna of Texas and North Carolina shows a considerably greater proportion of West Indian forms at Cedar Key.

(Digenea: Aporocotylidae) infects the heart of the smalltooth sawfish, Pristis pect- inata Latham (Rhinopristiformes: Pristidae), in the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Specimens of the new genus, along with the other blood flukes that infect batoids are similar by having an inverse U-shaped intestine and a curving testis as well as by lacking tegumental spines. The new genus differs from all of the other blood flukes infecting batoids by having an elongate body (>50 × longer than wide), a testis having >100 curves, and an ovary wholly anterior to the uterus. It differs from Ogawaia glaucostegi Cutmore, Cribb et Yong, 2018, the only other blood fluke infecting a rhinopristiform, by having a body that is >50 × (vs <30 ×) longer than wide, a testis that is >75 × (vs <40 ×) longer than wide and has >100 (vs <70) curves, an ovary wholly anterior to (vs lateral and dorsal to) the seminal vesi- cle, a uterus wholly posterior to (vs overlapping and lateral to both) the testis and ovary, and a sinuous (vs convoluted) uterus.

Crossley IIa,⁎ a University of North Texas, Department of Biological Sciences, 1155 Union Circle, Denton, TX 76203, United States b Division of Marine Biology and Ecology, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Miami, Miami, FL 33149-1098, United States ABSTRACT Aerobic exercise capacity is dependent on the cardiorespiratory system's ability to supply oxygen at a rate that meets energetic demands. In teleost fish crude oil exposure, with the associated polycyclic aromatic hydro- carbons (PAH's), reduces exercise performance and this has been hypothesized to be due to compromised car- diovascular function. In this study, we test this hypothesis by simultaneously measuring cardiovascular per- formance, oxygen consumption, and swim performance in a pelagic teleost, the cobia (Rachycentron canadum). Metabolic rate increased over 300% in both groups during the swim trial but as the fish approached the critical fi swim speed (Ucrit) MO2 was 12% lower in the oil exposed sh. Further, stroke volume was initially 35% lower while heart rate was 15% higher in the oil exposed compared to control fish. Our findings suggested, while aspects of cardiovascular and metabolic function are altered by oil exposure, additional studies are needed to further understand the homeostatic mechanisms that may sustain cardiovascular function at higher exercise intensities in cobia.

Mariculture has been contributing substantially to the global fish production in recent years. It accounted for about 29.2 per cent of world aquaculture production by value. It is a fact that India is still in infancy in mariculture production in the global scenario. Since mariculture is the only hope for increasing seafood production in the coming years, the research and development in this sector is of paramount importance.
