Ciguatera Food Poisoning in Europe”
“RISK CHARACTERIZATION OF CIGUATERA FOOD POISONING IN EUROPE” 71st Advisory Forum Meeting 03-04 April 2019 Bucharest, Rumania FRAMEWORK PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT GP/EFSA/AFSCO/2015/03 RISK CHARACTERIZATION OF CIGUATERA FOOD POISONING IN EUROPE [email protected] What is the Ciguatera? • Ciguatoxin is produced by micro algae, or dinoflagellates, called Gambierdiscus spp. The toxins climb up the food chain until the contaminated fish are caught and served to people. • These toxins cause Ciguatera food poisoning (CFP) which is a complex syndrome: gastrointestinal, neurological and cardiovascular effects. CFP is primarily associated with the consumption of large predator fish that have accumulated the toxins by feeding on smaller contaminated coral reef fish. • At present, CFP is the most common type of marine biotoxins food poisoning worldwide with an estimated number of 10.000 to 50.000 people suffering from the disease annually. FRAMEWORK PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT GP/EFSA/AFSCO/2015/03 RISK CHARACTERIZATION OF CIGUATERA FOOD POISONING IN EUROPE [email protected] Worldwide distribution of ciguatera Caribbean Ciguatoxin Pacific Ciguatoxin Red dots: ciguatera cases of poisoning. Yellow dots: presence of Gambierdiscus spp. FRAMEWORK PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT GP/EFSA/AFSCO/2015/03 RISK CHARACTERIZATION OF CIGUATERA FOOD POISONING IN EUROPE [email protected] Background Ciguatera 2004 Gambierdiscus spp., responsible for ciguatera in the waters of the Canary Islands and Madeira microalgae, was detected. 2008 autochthonous ciguatera outbreaks in Spain (Canary Islands) and in Portugal (Madeira). Between 2008 and 2018 18 outbreaks (115 cases) recorded in Canary Islands Fish genus Seriola was involved in many of the outbreaks. These new findings suggest the microorganism is becoming an increasing risk for European countries. -

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. -

Artisanal fisheries in the Canary Islands (eastern-central Atlantic): description, analysis of their economic contribution, current threats, and strategic actions for sustainable development. Acta Ichthyol. Piscat. 50 (3): 269–289. Background. Fishing is a primary activity of great importance in the Canaries and has traditionally played an important role in reducing poverty, in job creation, strengthening food security and sovereignty, and increasing the value of its products. This study is needed to analyze fishing contribution in a region strongly based on tourism. Aims were: to update the inventory of fishing techniques, to detail the biodiversity involved, and for the first time to analyze the contribution of the landings. We also identify threats to the activity and draft a plan with strategic actions for its sustainability. Materials and methods. Data on the fisheries and the 2007–2018 series of landings were taken from the regional government website. -
Reef Fishes of the Bird's Head Peninsula, West
Check List 5(3): 587–628, 2009. ISSN: 1809-127X LISTS OF SPECIES Reef fishes of the Bird’s Head Peninsula, West Papua, Indonesia Gerald R. Allen 1 Mark V. Erdmann 2 1 Department of Aquatic Zoology, Western Australian Museum. Locked Bag 49, Welshpool DC, Perth, Western Australia 6986. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Conservation International Indonesia Marine Program. Jl. Dr. Muwardi No. 17, Renon, Denpasar 80235 Indonesia. Abstract A checklist of shallow (to 60 m depth) reef fishes is provided for the Bird’s Head Peninsula region of West Papua, Indonesia. The area, which occupies the extreme western end of New Guinea, contains the world’s most diverse assemblage of coral reef fishes. The current checklist, which includes both historical records and recent survey results, includes 1,511 species in 451 genera and 111 families. Respective species totals for the three main coral reef areas – Raja Ampat Islands, Fakfak-Kaimana coast, and Cenderawasih Bay – are 1320, 995, and 877. In addition to its extraordinary species diversity, the region exhibits a remarkable level of endemism considering its relatively small area. A total of 26 species in 14 families are currently considered to be confined to the region. Introduction and finally a complex geologic past highlighted The region consisting of eastern Indonesia, East by shifting island arcs, oceanic plate collisions, Timor, Sabah, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, and widely fluctuating sea levels (Polhemus and the Solomon Islands is the global centre of 2007). reef fish diversity (Allen 2008). Approximately 2,460 species or 60 percent of the entire reef fish The Bird’s Head Peninsula and surrounding fauna of the Indo-West Pacific inhabits this waters has attracted the attention of naturalists and region, which is commonly referred to as the scientists ever since it was first visited by Coral Triangle (CT). -

July 2015, 69 pp. 2 Executive Summary On July 15, 2013, NMFS received a petition to list 81 species of marine organisms as endangered or threatened species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). If an ESA petition is found to present substantial scientific or commercial information that the petitioned action may be warranted, a status review shall be promptly commenced (16 U.S.C. 1533(b)(3)(A)). NMFS determined that for 27 of the 81 species, including the island grouper (Mycteroperca fusca), the petition had sufficient merit for consideration and that a status review was warranted (79 FR 10104, February 24, 2014). -

Body size determines total reproductive-energy output. Most theories assume repro- ductive output is a fixed proportion of size but formal macroecological tests are lacking. Management based on that assumption risks underestimating the contribution of larger mothers to replenishment, hindering sustainable harvesting. We test this assumption in marine fishes with a phylogenetically controlled meta-analysis of the intra-specific mass scaling of reproductive-energy output. We show that larger mothers reproduce disproportionately more than smaller mothers, not only via fecundity, but also total reproductive-energy. -
