  • The Histopathology of Antique Ark's Mantle (Anadara Antiquata) Post
    The histopathology of antique ark’s mantle (Anadara antiquata) post-depuration with the shells’ filtration Nabila A. Putri, Laksmi Sulmartiwi, Kustiawan T. Pursetyo Faculty of Fisheries and Marine, Universitas Airlangga, 60115, Surabaya, Indonesia. Corresponding author: L. Sulmartiwi, [email protected] Abstract. Cockles are marine organisms which have the character of filter feeders so that heavy metals can be neutralized naturally through their shells. However, not all heavy metals can be neutralized, so depuration needs to be done. After depuration, histopathological analysis is needed to determine the condition of the soft tissue of the shells so that the disease can be diagnosed through structural changes that occur in the organs that are the main target of pollutants. This study aims to determine the histopathology of antique ark’s mantle (Anadara antiquata) after post-depuration with the filtration of the cockles’ shells. This research method applies an experimental method with scoring histological damage to antique ark’s mantle that ranges from 0 to 3, depending on the level and extent of the changes that occur. After that, the distribution of normal and non-homogeneous data was obtained, and then the Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test was conducted. The main parameter is the histopathology of the antique ark’s mantle. Supporting parameters include water quality, namely temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, salinity, levels of heavy metals Pb and Cd, total suspended solid (TSS) and total dissolved solid (TDS). The results of the Kruskal-Wallis statistical analysis shows no significant difference between treatments P0 (Control), P1 (Filter 25%), P2 (Filter 50%), P3 (Filter 75%), and P4 (Filter 100%).

  • Abstract for Submission to the 11Th International Coral Reef
    Reef Fish Spawning Aggregations in Aceh, Sumatra: Local Knowledge of Occurrence and Status Authors: Campbell S.J., Mukmunin, A., Prasetia, R The Wildlife Conservation Society, Indonesian Marine Program, Jalan Pangrango 8, Bogor 16141, Indonesia Reef Fish Spawning Aggregations (FSA) are critical in the life cycle of the fishes that use this reproductive strategy as sources of larvae, but are also highly vulnerable to over exploitation. With the exception of the Komodo (Pet et al. 2005) little if any research has been focused on FSAs in Indonesia. Interview surveys were conducted among fishing communities on the island of Weh in northern Aceh in order to determine the level of awareness of FSAs among fishers; which reef fish species form FSAs; sites of aggregation formation; seasonal patterns; and to assess fishing pressure on and status of FSAs. Results show that many fishers possess reliable knowledge of spawning areas, species and times. Possible FSAs were reported from a number of areas on Weh island inside and outside protected areas. Of the 47 species of fish mentioned by respondents, we conclude that six species are very likely to form spawning aggregations in marine waters of Weh island. All six species were mentioned by more than 10 fishers, and included Bolbometopoton muricatum (Scaridae: Bumpheaded parrotfish), Cepahpholis miniata (Serranidae: Coral grouper) Variola louti (Serranidae: Yellow Edged Lyretail), Cheilinus undulatas (Labridae: Napolean wrasse), Thunnus albacares (Yellow fin tuna) and Caranx lugubris (Carangidae: Black Jack Trevally). FSAs in Aceh were areas targeted by fishers, although many were inside existing marine protected areas where prohibitions on netting from boats are in place.

  • MARINE LIFE PROFILE: HAWAIIAN LIMPET SNAIL Classification
    Waikïkï Aquarium Education Department MARINE LIFE PROFILE: HAWAIIAN LIMPET SNAIL Hawaiian name: ‘opihi Scientific name: Cellana exarata and others Distribution: Hawaiian Islands Size: up to 3 inches (7.5 cm) Diet: algae Limpets are common snails found on rocky shores throughout the world. But the four species which occur in Hawaii are endemic, found here and no where else! The most common species is the "blackfoot" ‘opihi (Cellana exarata) which occurs on basalt shorelines, from the splash zone high on the shore, seaward to the level of the mean low tide where crust-like pink calcareous algae forms a band on the rocks. Like other snails, limpets have: (1) a head with eyes and tentacles, a mouth on a protrusible proboscis (mouth tube); (2) a broad muscular foot for clinging and crawling; and (3) a soft body mass (containing the internal organs) which is protected by their shell. Living on this part of the shore, the ‘opihi must withstand periods of drying exposure during low tides, as well as heavy surge and pounding waves at high tide. They cling firmly to the rock surface with the muscular foot that acts like a suction cup to keep them from being torn off the rocks. The cap-shaped shell has a low profile and low center of gravity so that the snail presents little resistance to the water as it pounds and pours over the shore. The ribs and grooves in the shell help spread the force of the crashing waves by channeling water down the sides of the shell. Each ‘opihi lives in a shallow depression on the rock that it makes itself, possibly by rasping at the rock with its radula.

  • Caranx Lugubris (Black Jack)
    UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Ecology Caranx lugubris (Black Jack) Family: Carangidae (Jacks and Pompanos) Order: Perciformes (Perch and Allied Fish) Class: Actinopterygii (Ray-finned Fish) Fig. 1. Black jack, Caranx lugubris. [http://marinebio.org/upload/Caranx-lugubris/1.jpg, downloaded 14 February 2016] TRAITS. Being built for speed, Caranx lugubris have a steep sloping head with a body that tapers down to a very narrow tail (Lin and Shao, 1999). The colour of the body and head are almost uniformly greyish-brown to black, they have a deeply forked tail (Fig. 1), and the average body length is around 70cm (Humann, 1989). The teeth of the upper jaw include strong canines, and there are about 8 upper and 18-21 lower gill-rakers on the gill arches. DISTRIBUTION. Caranx lugubris is widely distributed in tropical waters worldwide (Fig. 2), with a circumtropical distribution (Smith-Vaniz, 1986). This includes the waters of the Indian Ocean, Pacific, the Atlantic including the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean (Smith-Vaniz et al., 2015). UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Ecology HABITAT AND ACTIVITY. This species of fish lives in offshore waters at depths of 10-350m (Lieske and Myers, 1994). This species is a bentho-pelagic marine fish that dwells in coral reefs, at the edges of reefs and rocks (Carpenter, 2002). They tend to form schools and primarily feed on other fish (Smith-Vaniz et al., 2015). They tend to live in solitude or in schools consisting of up to 30 individuals (Fig.

    A survey of fishes associated with Hawaiian deep-water Halimeda kanaloana (Bryopsidales: Halimedaceae) and Avrainvillea sp. (Bryopsidales: Udoteaceae) meadows Ross C. Langston1 and Heather L. Spalding2 1 Department of Natural Sciences, University of Hawai`i- Windward Community College, Kane`ohe,¯ HI, USA 2 Department of Botany, University of Hawai`i at Manoa,¯ Honolulu, HI, USA ABSTRACT The invasive macroalgal species Avrainvillea sp. and native species Halimeda kanaloana form expansive meadows that extend to depths of 80 m or more in the waters off of O`ahu and Maui, respectively. Despite their wide depth distribution, comparatively little is known about the biota associated with these macroalgal species. Our primary goals were to provide baseline information on the fish fauna associated with these deep-water macroalgal meadows and to compare the abundance and diversity of fishes between the meadow interior and sandy perimeters. Because both species form structurally complex three-dimensional canopies, we hypothesized that they would support a greater abundance and diversity of fishes when compared to surrounding sandy areas. We surveyed the fish fauna associated with these meadows using visual surveys and collections made with clove-oil anesthetic. Using these techniques, we recorded a total of 49 species from 25 families for H. kanaloana meadows and surrounding sandy areas, and 28 species from 19 families for Avrainvillea sp. habitats. Percent endemism was 28.6% and 10.7%, respectively. Wrasses (Family Labridae) were the most speciose taxon in both habitats (11 and six species, respectively), followed by gobies for H. kanaloana (six Submitted 18 November 2016 species). The wrasse Oxycheilinus bimaculatus and cardinalfish Apogonichthys perdix Accepted 13 April 2017 were the most frequently-occurring species within the H.
