The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

  • Otolith Atlas for the Western Mediterranean, North and Central Eastern Atlantic
    SCIENTIA MARINA 72S1 July 2008, 7-198, Barcelona (Spain) ISSN: 0214-8358 Otolith atlas for the western Mediterranean, north and central eastern Atlantic VICTOR M. TUSET 1, ANTONI LOMBARTE 2 and CARLOS A. ASSIS 3 1 Instituto Canario de Ciencias Marinas, Departamento de Biología Pesquera, P.O. Box. 56, E-35200 Telde (Las Palmas), Canary Islands, Spain. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Institut de Ciències del Mar-CSIC, Departament de Recursos Marins Renovables, Passeig Marítim 37-49, Barcelona 08003, Catalonia, Spain. 3 Instituto de Oceanografia e Departamento de Biologia Animal, Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa, Campo Grande 1749-016, Lisboa, Portugal. SUMMARY: The sagittal otolith of 348 species, belonging to 99 families and 22 orders of marine Teleostean fishes from the north and central eastern Atlantic and western Mediterranean were described using morphological and morphometric characters. The morphological descriptions were based on the otolith shape, outline and sulcus acusticus features. The mor- phometric parameters determined were otolith length (OL, mm), height (OH, mm), perimeter (P; mm) and area (A; mm2) and were expressed in terms of shape indices as circularity (P2/A), rectangularity (A/(OL×OH)), aspect ratio (OH/OL; %) and OL/fish size. The present Atlas provides information that complements the characterization of some ichthyologic taxa. In addition, it constitutes an important instrument for species identification using sagittal otoliths collected in fossiliferous layers, in archaeological sites or in feeding remains of bony fish predators. Keywords: otolith, sagitta, morphology, morphometry, western Mediterranean, north eastern Atlantic, central eastern Atlantic. RESUMEN: Otolitos de peces del mediterráneo occidental y del atlántico central y nororiental.

    femelles étaient le Lepidopus caudatus, le Scomber japonicus et le Trachurus picturatus, que l’on a détecté dans plus de 50 % des contenus stomacaux de chaque sexe. Toutefois, il semble y avoir une différence notable entre la principale proie préférée par chaque sexe, le L. caudatus chez les femelles et le Capros aper chez les mâles. Pour ce qui est des céphalopodes, l’Ommastrephes bartramii prédominait chez les femelles (22 % des contenus stomacaux), et l’Argonauta argo et l’Histioteutis dofleini (14 %) chez les mâles. Un G-test a servi à comparer la fréquence d’apparition des groupes de proies chez les deux sexes. Aucune différence significative n’a été observée dans l’alimentation entre les mâles et les femelles. Toutefois, la présence plus fréquente de céphalopodes à déplacement rapide, comme l’Ommastrephes bartramii et le Todarodes sagittatus dans l’alimentation des femelles, comme leur absence dans celle des mâles, pourrait indiquer quelque limitation physiologique et quelque différence de comportement entre les sexes. En fait, s’il existe des différences quant au choix de l’habitat des mâles et des femelles, il pourrait également y avoir des différences quant à leur disponibilité à la pêche de palangre. RESUMEN Este documento presenta algunos resultados sobre la dieta del pez espada, Xiphias gladius, en las aguas en torno a Azores. De los 82 estómagos examinados (58 hembras y 24 machos), el 11% estaban vacíos (9 estómagos). En cuanto a los otros 73, se compara entre los sexos la composición por presas y algunas de las peculiaridades biológicas de las especies de presas.

  • The Diet of the Blue Shark (Prionace Glauca L.) in Azorean Waters
    THE DIET OF THE BLUE SHARK (PRIONACE GLAUCA L.) IN AZOREAN WATERS M.R. CLARKE, D.C. CLARKE, H.R. MARTINS & H.M. DA SILVA CLARKE,M.R., D.C. CLARKE, H.R. MARTINS & H.M. DA SILVA1996. The diet of the blue shark (Prionace gbauca L.) in Azorean waters. Arquipdago. Life and Marine Sciences 14A: 41-56. Ponta Delgada. ISSN 0873-4704. Stomach contents of 195 Prionace glauca caught off the Azores from October 1993 to July 1994 were studied. Eighty three had empty stomachs. Only 23 contained whole or fleshy parts of animals (other than bait) and all belonged to the fish Capros aper, Macrorhamphosus scolopax and Lepidopus caudatus and the squids Histioteuthis bonnellii and Taonius pavo. Seventy five fish otoliths and 207 cephalopod lower beaks were identified to genus or species. Considering all fragments from the stomachs, including otoliths, cephalopod beaks and eye lenses, a minimum of 1411 fish, 4 crustaceans and 261 cephalopods were represented. Approximately 386 of the fish were represented by eye lenses alone. There was a mean of 2.4 species (1.8 cephalopods and 0.6 fish) and 15.2 animals represented in each stomach. Fish rcmains occurred in 83.0% of the stomachs and contributed 84.5% of animals to the diet. Cephalopod remains occurred in 75.7% and contributed 15.5% of animals. Estimates of the weights of fish and cephalopods suggest that cephalopods are probably the most important in the diet and these were almost entirely meso- or bathypelagic, neutrally buoyant cephalopods. Small epipelagic shoaling fish were present with a few much larger near-bottom fish.

Accepted: 04.09.2020 This study investigated the diversity of metazoan parasites of 132 greater forkbeards and 91 forkbeards, from the western Algerian coasts, a total of 19 taxa: 15 taxa from Phycis blennoides; 11 taxa from Phycis phycis, allocated to 15 genera in 12 families were recovered, including 7species common to the two hosts. 90% are endoparasites, mostly located in the intestine and the stomach, encapsulate forms were in the liver, whereas crustaceans were found in the gills of the hosts. The Anisakidae Railliet & Henry, (1912) is the most diverse group with two genera: Hysterothylacium Ward & Magath, (1917) and Anisakis Dujardin, (1845) with 5 species. The nematode Hysterothylacium fabri (P= 55%) and the digenean Stephanostomum pristis are the most abundant and the most prevalent parasites from P. phycis (P=94%), while Hysterothylacium aduncum (P=49%) and Lepidapedon guevarai (P=87%) are from P. blennoides. 14 parasites species are present as adult stage, indicated that these fish act as their definitive hosts, while cosmopolite species are present in the larval stage.

Growth and age estimation of the greater forkbeard, Phycis blennoides (Actinopterygii: Gadiformes: Phycidae), from the Gulf of Tunis (central Mediterranean). Acta Ichthyol. Piscat. 46 (1): 25–32. Background. The greater forkbeard, Phycis blennoides (Brünnich, 1768), is a gadiform species, which has economical value and its population is dwelling in a 60–800 m depth range throughout the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. Along African north coast, there is a lack of information about the biology (age, growth, sex-ratio) of this species. This study provides the fi rst data on population parameters of P. blennoides in Tunisia. Materials and methods. Specimens of Phycis blennoides were collected from the landings of the artisanal fi sheries between September 2007 and June 2010. The length–weight relations were determined according to the allometric equation: W = aTLb. Growth parameters were estimated using the von Bertalanffy growth equation. Results. Length (TL)–weight (W) relations were allometrically positive for the females (W = 22.10–4TL3.409), males (W = 13.10–4TL3.674), and both sexes (W = 19.10–4TL3.460), without signifi cant differences between males and females.

Ardizzone A critical habitat for Mediterranean fish resources: shelf-break areas with Leptometra phalangium (Echinodermata: Crinoidea) Received: 8 October 2003 / Accepted: 10 May 2004 / Published online: 3 July 2004 Ó Springer-Verlag 2004 Abstract This paper considers the potential role of the structure of species occurring on the shelf break showed crinoid Leptometra phalangium as an indicator of highly that for some of them the selection of this area is related productive areas along the shelf break that can sustain to specific phases of their life cycle. Significant highest large biomasses of benthopelagic fish and recruits. The abundance of recruits and juveniles was observed for structure of fish assemblages in the central Mediterra- Merluccius merluccius, Helicolenus dactylopterus, Phycis nean Sea (central-western coast of Italy), analysed on blennoides, Parapenaeus longirostris and Capros aper in the basis of surveys carried out in summer and autumn at least one of the two seasons. Similarly, an increased from 1997 to 2001, revealed the presence of a well-de- abundance of spawners of red mullet Mullus barbatus fined group of species on the shelf break.
