It considered a proposal by the Secretary for joint FAO/ICilS/IC1~AF action to issue a loose-leaf ./Iulttllngua.l List 0/ Common Names 0/ North Atlantic Fishes, Crustac.ans, Molluscs, etc.. While several members v/ere strongly in favour of such a publication, the Continuing Working Party recommend~ that further work along these lines should for the moment be suspended pending publication by OECD of the Multilingua.l NOMsnclature 0/ Fish and Fisherv Products. However, the Continuing Viorking Party considers it desirable to have available for fishery workers concerned with North Atlantic fisheries statistics a document in a regular series, which could be referred to in preparing notes, instructions and reports on fishery statistics concerned with these North Atlantic species. It therefore recommends that FAO should publish such a. document as a Bulletin 0/ Flsherv Statistics in which should be tabulated the scientific, English, Spanish and French corrunon names of all species appearing in the tables in the publications of ICES, ICNAF and FAO. It also recolllmends that in this publication the statistical categories be clearly defined and i terns such as "Various" appearing in the notes and on the STANA 1E forms should be specifieu to enable cOWltries to consistently complete requests for statistics. '1'he Continuing VJorking Party recommends that, after some experience has been gained in using this FAO Bulletin 0/ Fisherv Statistics giving lists of names, and the OBCD's NOMenclature, the proposals for (i) a multilingual list (as made in document STAIIA IV 65/6) and (E) a multilingual "Index", be reviewed, possibly at the Fifth Session of the Continuing Working Party. * * * This document is issuedas anFAO Fisheries Circular for distribution at the ICIIAF meeting, l.lay/June 1966, Madrid. After revision it will be issued as FAO Bulletin 0/ Fisherv Jtatistics No. 12 for distribution at the annual ICES Meetinf\", October 1966, Copenhagen. The Bulletin will also cont9.in as an appendix the ICES list of names. FAO Fisheries Circular (FAO Fish. Clre.) These documents, given very restricted distribution, are mostly short notes, instructions for the completion of statistical forms and questionnaires, lists on various topics or provisional versions of documents which may eventually be issued in final form in other series. ./ Some circulars, presenting statistical tables with provisional data, are prepared as papers for conferences, committees, oommissions, working parties. these tables may eventually be issued after revision in the "Yearbook II or "Bulletin of Fishery Statistics".

  • Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean Volume
    ISBN 0-9689167-4-x Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean (Davis Strait, Southern Greenland and Flemish Cap to Cape Hatteras) Volume One Acipenseriformes through Syngnathiformes Michael P. Fahay ii Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean iii Dedication This monograph is dedicated to those highly skilled larval fish illustrators whose talents and efforts have greatly facilitated the study of fish ontogeny. The works of many of those fine illustrators grace these pages. iv Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean v Preface The contents of this monograph are a revision and update of an earlier atlas describing the eggs and larvae of western Atlantic marine fishes occurring between the Scotian Shelf and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (Fahay, 1983). The three-fold increase in the total num- ber of species covered in the current compilation is the result of both a larger study area and a recent increase in published ontogenetic studies of fishes by many authors and students of the morphology of early stages of marine fishes. It is a tribute to the efforts of those authors that the ontogeny of greater than 70% of species known from the western North Atlantic Ocean is now well described. Michael Fahay 241 Sabino Road West Bath, Maine 04530 U.S.A. vi Acknowledgements I greatly appreciate the help provided by a number of very knowledgeable friends and colleagues dur- ing the preparation of this monograph. Jon Hare undertook a painstakingly critical review of the entire monograph, corrected omissions, inconsistencies, and errors of fact, and made suggestions which markedly improved its organization and presentation.

    A5 By-catch Species APPENDIX 5: BY-CATCH SPECIES A.5 By-catch species By-catch is the unintentional/incidental capture of non-target species during fishing operations. Different types of fisheries have different types and levels of by-catch, depending on the gear used, the time, area and depth fished, etc. Article IV of the Convention states: "the Commission shall be responsible for the study of the population of tuna and tuna-like fishes (the Scombriformes with the exception of Trichiuridae and Gempylidae and the genus Scomber) and such other species of fishes exploited in tuna fishing in the Convention area as are not under investigation by another international fishery organization". The following is a list of by-catch species recorded as being ever caught by any major tuna fishery in the Atlantic/Mediterranean. Note that the lists are qualitative and are not indicative of quantity or mortality. Thus, the presence of a species in the lists does not imply that it is caught in significant quantities, or that individuals that are caught necessarily die.

Please cite this article as doi: 10.1002/spp2.1221 This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved A ‘Gempylids’ (snake mackerels) and trichiurids (cutlassfishes) are pelagic fishes characterised by slender to eel-like bodies, deep-sea predatory ecologies, and large fang-like teeth. Several hypotheses of relationships between these groups have been proposed, but a consensus remains elusive. Fossils attributed to ‘gempylids’ and trichiurids consist almost exclusively of highly compressed body fossils and isolated teeth and otoliths. We use micro-computed tomography to redescribe two three- dimensional crania, historically assigned to †Eutrichiurides winkleri and †Progempylus edwardsi, as well as an isolated braincase (NHMUK PV OR 41318).

  • The Genome of the Gulf Pipefish Enables Understanding of Evolutionary Innovations C
    Small et al. Genome Biology (2016) 17:258 DOI 10.1186/s13059-016-1126-6 RESEARCH Open Access The genome of the Gulf pipefish enables understanding of evolutionary innovations C. M. Small1†, S. Bassham1†, J. Catchen1,2†, A. Amores3, A. M. Fuiten1, R. S. Brown1,4, A. G. Jones5 and W. A. Cresko1* Abstract Background: Evolutionary origins of derived morphologies ultimately stem from changes in protein structure, gene regulation, and gene content. A well-assembled, annotated reference genome is a central resource for pursuing these molecular phenomena underlying phenotypic evolution. We explored the genome of the Gulf pipefish (Syngnathus scovelli), which belongs to family Syngnathidae (pipefishes, seahorses, and seadragons). These fishes have dramatically derived bodies and a remarkable novelty among vertebrates, the male brood pouch. Results: We produce a reference genome, condensed into chromosomes, for the Gulf pipefish. Gene losses and other changes have occurred in pipefish hox and dlx clusters and in the tbx and pitx gene families, candidate mechanisms for the evolution of syngnathid traits, including an elongated axis and the loss of ribs, pelvic fins, and teeth. We measure gene expression changes in pregnant versus non-pregnant brood pouch tissue and characterize the genomic organization of duplicated metalloprotease genes (patristacins) recruited into the function of this novel structure. Phylogenetic inference using ultraconserved sequences provides an alternative hypothesis for the relationship between orders Syngnathiformes and Scombriformes. Comparisons of chromosome structure among percomorphs show that chromosome number in a pipefish ancestor became reduced via chromosomal fusions. Conclusions: The collected findings from this first syngnathid reference genome open a window into the genomic underpinnings of highly derived morphologies, demonstrating that de novo production of high quality and useful reference genomes is within reach of even small research groups.

  • A Regional Shellfish Hatchery for the Wider Caribbean Assessing Its Feasibility and Sustainability
    FAO ISSN 2070-6103 19 FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE PROCEEDINGS FAO FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE PROCEEDINGS 19 19 A regional shellfish hatchery for the Wider Caribbean Assessing its feasibility and sustainability A regional shellfish hatchery for the Wider Caribbean – Assessing its feasibility and sustainability A regional FAO Regional Technical Workshop A regional shellfish hatchery for 18–21 October 2010 Kingston, Jamaica the Wider Caribbean It is widely recognized that the development of aquaculture in Assessing its feasibility and sustainability the Wider Caribbean Region is inhibited, in part, by the lack of technical expertise, infrastructure, capital investment and human resources. Furthermore, seed supply for native species FAO Regional Technical Workshop relies, for the most part, on natural collection, subject to 18–21 October 2010 natural population abundance with wide yearly variations. This Kingston, Jamaica situation has led to the current trend of culturing more readily available exotic species, but with a potentially undesirable impact on the natural environment. The centralizing of resources available in the region into a shared facility has been recommended by several expert meetings over the past 20 years. The establishment of a regional hatchery facility, supporting sustainable aquaculture through the seed production of native molluscan species was discussed at the FAO workshop “Regional shellfish hatchery: A feasibility study” held in Kingston, Jamaica, in October 2010, by representatives of Caribbean Governments and experts in the field. Molluscan species are particularly targeted due to their culture potential in terms of known techniques, simple grow-out technology and low impact on surrounding environment. It is proposed that a regional molluscan hatchery would produce seed for sale and distribution to grow-out operations in the region as well as provide technical support for the research on new species.

Abstract: Vast amounts of fish bone lie preserved in Denmark’s soil as remains of prehistoric fishing. Fishing was particularly important during the Atlantic period (ca. 7,000-3,900 BC, i.e., part of the Mesolithic Stone Age). At this time, sea temperature and salinity were higher in waters around Denmark than today. Analyses of more than 100,000 fish bones from various settlements from this period document which fish species were common in coastal Danish waters at this time. This study provides a basis for comparing the fish fauna in the warm Stone Age sea with the tendencies seen and predicted today as a result of rising sea temperatures.
