Octopuses are admirable creatures—they are intelligent, remarkably good at camouflage and predator avoidance, dexterous, and famously able to get in and out of a tight spot. The North Pacific Giant Octopus (Enteroctopus dofleini) is not targeted in Alaskan fisheries, but managers would like to limit octopus by-catch and develop fisheries. However, octopus are very difficult to tag, and 60 years of experiments have yielded little about their movement, abundance, and mortality. They can pull out external tags, disc tags and brands cause necrosis, and chemical tags quickly fade. A benign tagging method that provides long-term individual identification is essential for these population studies. NMT’s Visible Implant Elastomer (VIE) Tags are meeting the challenge of providing individual and batch tagging for octopus. Liquid VIE is injected under the skin, but remains externally visible. Different colors and tag locations are combined to generate unique codes. VIE Tags are easy to use and can be applied across a wide range of octopus sizes. They have no negative effects on the octopus, and are retained at very high rates. In a 2 year mark-recapture experiment, University of Alaska researcher Reid Brewer and his team used VIE to tag over 1730 octopuses. They recaptured an impressive 14% of the released animals, of which a large proportion had been at liberty for at least 60 days and for as long as 374 days, demonstrating the effectiveness of VIE for long term studies Made in (Brewer, R. & B. Norcross. Fisheries Research Washington USA 134-136). Top: Researcher Reid Brewer weighs an octopus during VIE tagging trials. VIE is widely used from Alaska to Antarctica, and Bottom: VIE is injected under the skin, but remains externally visible, as in this octopus which was recaptured after 186 days. The code is read as: everywhere in between. Please contact us if we green—blue—blue—red—orange and identifies an individual octopus. can help with your research. Photos courtesy of R. Brewer.

  • Seine River Temperature Project
    SEINE RIVER TEMPERATURE PROJECT A multi-year project designed to determine environmental and traditional ecological knowledge indicators for lake sturgeon spawning windows A Five-Year Summary of Work Conducted from 2011 to 2015 March 2016 Prepared by Ryan Haines, Kenora Resource Consultants Inc. for Seine River First Nation In Memory of Myron Johnson As a co-worker and friend…you will be missed. i Executive Summary In 1926, the Sturgeon Falls Generating Station was constructed along the Seine River to create hydroelectric power and this facility is currently operated by H2O Power. One of the major threats to lake sturgeon is the impact of peaking hydroelectric developments on the water levels during the spring spawning season. The purpose of the Seine River Temperature Project is to help define the spring spawn for Seine River sturgeon through surrogate environmental indicators and note any effects of peaking on spawning. In addition, a goal of the project was to determine if the increases in water levels at the Seine River First Nation community are due solely to the flow from the Seine River, or if the dam at the outlet of Rainy Lake affects the water levels resulting in the Seine River functioning as a reservoir. Between 2011 and 2015, Seine River First Nation community technicians studied the spawning timing of lake sturgeon at two important spawning sites in Seine River below the Sturgeon Falls dam to help determine the environmental indicators (temperature, photoperiod, flows) for lake sturgeon spawning. In addition, work was done with Seine River First Nation Elders and knowledge holders in the fall of 2012 to identify Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) indicators for lake sturgeon spawning in Seine River.

  • Developing an Edna Toolkit to Quantify Broadcast Spawning Events of the Sea Scallop Placopecten Magellanicus: Moving Beyond Fertilization Assays
    Vol. 621: 127–141, 2019 MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published July 4 https://doi.org/10.3354/meps12991 Mar Ecol Prog Ser OPENPEN ACCESSCCESS Developing an eDNA toolkit to quantify broadcast spawning events of the sea scallop Placopecten magellanicus: moving beyond fertilization assays Skylar R. Bayer1,3,*, Peter D. Countway2, Richard A. Wahle1 1University of Maine, School of Marine Sciences, Darling Marine Center, 193 Clark’s Cove Road, Walpole, ME 04573 2Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences, 60 Bigelow Drive, East Boothbay, ME 04544 3Present Address: NOAA NEFSC Milford Laboratory, 212 Rogers Avenue, Milford, CT 06460 ABSTRACT: Broadcast spawners release their gametes into the water column for ‘chance’ fertil- ization events. However, detection of such events in near real-time is extremely difficult, but needed to improve fisheries and conservation management practices. It is practically impossible to distinguish the gametes of many species by microscopy; therefore, DNA-based techniques are preferable to detect and quantify gametes from field-collected plankton samples. We developed a quantitative PCR (qPCR) approach to detect and quantify broadcast spawning events in marine environmental DNA (eDNA) samples. We applied this approach to a commercially valuable broad- cast spawning bivalve species, the sea scallop Placopecten magellanicus. Our approach includes (1) sequencing the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, (2) developing a novel species-specific probe and primer set, (3) testing the probe and primer set on a dilution series of sea scallop sperm to quantify the relationship between gamete abundance and DNA copy number, and (4) conduct- ing dockside field tests of our method on plankton samples adjacent to naturally spawning sea scallops.

  • Spawning Patterns of Commercially Important Reef Fish (Lutjanidae and Serranidae) in the Tropical Western South Atlantic

SUMMARY: Although information on the spawning seasons of commercially important snappers (Lutjanidae) and groupers (Serranidae, subfamily Epinephelinae) is available for the north and central west Atlantic, there is little information for the tropical western South Atlantic (Brazil). As a consequence, there are few fishery regulations in this entire region that take into consideration such information. In this study, we characterized the reproductive cycles of three Epinephelinae serranids (Epinephelus morio, Mycteroperca bonaci and Cephalopholis fulva) and five lutjanids (Lutjanus synagris, L. jocu, L. analis, Ocyurus chrysurus and Rhomboplites aurorubens) that occur in the Abrolhos Bank, Brazil, the largest reef complex in the tropical western South Atlantic. A total of 3528 gonads were collected from May 2005 to October 2007.
