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.

  • Resource Assessments for Multi-Species Fisheries In
    CM 2007/O:11 Resource assessments for multi-species fisheries in NSW, Australia: qualitative status determination using life history characteristics, empirical indicators and expert review. James Scandol and Kevin Rowling Wild Fisheries Program; Systems Research Branch Division of Science and Research; NSW Department of Primary Industries Cronulla Fisheries Centre; PO Box 21, Cronulla NSW 2230 Not to be cited without prior reference to the authors Abstract As the scope of fisheries management continues to broaden, there is increased pressure on scientific assessment processes to consider a greater number of species. This expanded list of species will inevitably include those with a range of life-history strategies, heterogeneous sources of information, and diverse stakeholder values. When faced with this challenge in New South Wales (Australia), the Department of Primary Industries developed systems and processes that scaled efficiently as the number of species requiring consideration increased. The key aspects of our approach are: • A qualitative determination of exploitation status based upon expert review. The current categories are: growth/recruitment overfished, fully fished, moderately fished, lightly fished, undefined and uncertain. • Application of management rules that require a Species Recovery Program should any species be determined to be overfished. • An emphasis on readily calculated empirical indicators (such as catch, catch-rates, length and age composition), rather than model-based estimates of biomass or fishing mortality. • Use of databases and electronic reporting systems to calculate empirical indicators based upon specified rules. Currently, there are 90 species considered with around six scientific and technical staff. These species were identified by commercial fishers as the important species from five multi-species and multi- method input-controlled fisheries.

  • Portunus Pelagicus) from the East Sahul Shelf, Indonesia 1Andi A
    The morphology and morphometric characteristics of the male swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus) from the East Sahul Shelf, Indonesia 1Andi A. Hidayani, 1Dody D. Trijuno, 1Yushinta Fujaya, 2Alimuddin, 1M. Tauhid Umar 1 Faculty of Marine Science and Fisheries, Hasanuddin University, Makassar, Indonesia; 2 Aquaculture Department, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Bogor Agriculture Institute, Bogor, Indonesia. Corresponding author: A. A. Hidayani, [email protected] Abstract. The swimming crab (Portunus sp.) has distinct morphological characteristics. They come in a variety of colors and most have white patterns on their carapaces. The aim of this study is to determine the morphology and morphometric variation of male swimming crabs collected from the East Sahul Shelf in Indonesia. The sample was collected in West Papua, representative of the East Sahul Shelf area. The sampling locations were Sorong (30 crabs), Raja Ampat (45 crabs) and Kaimana (76 crabs). The morphological analysis determined the color, white patterns on carapace and shape of the gonopodium. While the morphometric characteristics were determined by measuring the length and width of the crabs’ carapaces and meri. Data regarding the morphometric characteristics were analyzed using Stepwise Discriminant Analyses. The distance of genetic variation based on morphology and morphometric characteristics between populations was analyzed using Predicted Group Membership and Pairwise Group Comparison and the Test Equality of Group Means was used to analyze the more specific characteristic of the crab. Results indicated that the morphological characteristics based on color and the white patterns on the carapace of the swimming crab from West Papua were similar to Portunus pelagicus. However, based on the shape of the gonopodium, crabs from Sorong, Raja Ampat and Kaimana had characteristics similar to those of the Portunus armatus with the percentage of similarity being 30%, 40% and 25%, respectively.
