Cette liste, rangée par Familles, a été établie à partij- de FishBase, la base de données universelle sur les poissons ( www.fishbase.org). et complétée par des communications locales provenant des sept pays membres. Les noms communs sont fournis pour toutes les espèces pour lesquelles ces noms sont disponibles, c. à d. les noms internationaux (FAO) en français et en anglais, et les noms vernaculaire en anglais (Sierra Leone), français (Guinée, Mauritanie, Sénégal), hassaniya (Mauritanie), krio (Sierra Leone), portugais (Cap Vert, Guinée Bissau), sussu (Guinée) et en wolof (Gambie, Mauritanie, Sénégal). La liste comprend aussi des synonymes des noms scientifiques s’ils sont encore utilisés généralement, et une description générale de l'ccologie de chaque espèce. Des informations supplémentaires sur la croissance, la composition du régime, etc. (y compris des illustrations) sur les espèces peuvent être trouvées dans FishBase. Les 1066 espèces de cette liste sont indexées par leurs noms scientifiques, internationaux et vernaculaires. Introduction Des statistiques fiables de prises, telles qu'elles sont nécessaires pour la gestion de la pêche, demandent elles-même une bonne connaissance des espèces dont la pêche dépend. Ceci s'applique aussi à la pêche des sept pays de l'Afrique de l’Ouest, qui sont des états membres de la Commission Sous-Régional des Pêches, CSRP/SRFC (Cap-Vert, Gambie, Guinée, Guinée-Bissau, Mauritanie, Sénégal et Sierra Leone). Poissons Marins de la Sous-Région Nord-Ouest Africaine Marine Fishes of the North-West African Sub-Region Heureusement, beaucoup de travail a été fait sur la taxonomie des poissons de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, notamment par le personnel de l'ancien ORSTOM (maintenant IRD), comme par ex. Blache et al. (1970). Ces dernières années, la plus grande partie de ce travail a été incorporée, après vérification, dans FishBase, une base de données globale des poissons (Froese et Pauly 2000), dont des versions CD-ROM et Internet ( www.fishbase.org) peuvent être utilisées pour créer des listes d'espèces nationales. Ici, nous avons extrait de FishBase 2000 (la toute dernière version CD-ROM) les listes d'espèces nationales pour les sept pays de la Sous-Région en excluant toute fois les espèces des eaux continentales.

  • Jubilee Field Draft EIA Chapter 4 6 Aug 09.Pdf
    4 ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC BASELINE 4.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter provides a description of the current environmental and socio- economic situation against which the potential impacts of the Jubilee Field Phase 1 development can be assessed and future changes monitored. The chapter presents an overview of the aspects of the environment relating to the surrounding area in which the Jubilee Field Phase 1 development will take place and which may be directly or indirectly affected by the proposed project. This includes the Jubilee Unit Area, the Ghana marine environment at a wider scale and the six districts of the Western Region bordering the marine environment. The Jubilee Unit Area and its regional setting are shown in Figure 4.1. The project area is approximately 132 km west-southwest of the city of Takoradi, 60 km from the nearest shoreline of Ghana, and 75 km from the nearest shoreline of Côte d’Ivoire. Figure 4.1 Project Location and Regional Setting ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT TULLOW GHANA LIMITED 4-1 The baseline description draws on a number of primary and secondary data sources. Primary data sources include recent hydrographic studies undertaken as part of the exploration well drilling programme in the Jubilee field area, as well as an Environmental Baseline Survey (EBS) which was commissioned by Tullow and undertaken by TDI Brooks (2008). An electronic copy of the EBS is attached to this EIS. It is noted that information on the offshore distribution and ecology of marine mammals, turtles and offshore pelagic fish is more limited due to limited historic research in offshore areas.

  • Simulations of Fishing Effects on the Southern Benguela Fish Community Using an Individual-Based Model: Learning from a Comparison with Ecosim
    Ecosystem Approaches to Fisheries in the Southern Benguela Afr. J. mar. Sci. 26: 95–114 2004 95 SIMULATIONS OF FISHING EFFECTS ON THE SOUTHERN BENGUELA FISH COMMUNITY USING AN INDIVIDUAL-BASED MODEL: LEARNING FROM A COMPARISON WITH ECOSIM Y-J. SHIN*, L. J. SHANNON† and P. M. CURY* By applying an individual-based model (OSMOSE) to the southern Benguela ecosystem, a multispecies analysis is proposed, complementary to that provided by the application of ECOPATH/ECOSIM models. To reconstruct marine foodwebs, OSMOSE is based on the hypothesis that predation is a size-structured process. In all, 12 fish species, chosen for their importance in terms of biomass and catches, are explicitly modelled. Growth, repro- duction and mortality parameters are required to model their dynamics and trophic interactions. Maps of mean spatial distribution of the species are compiled from published literature. Taking into account the spatial component is necessary because spatial co-occurrence determines potential interactions between predatory fish and prey fish of suitable size. To explore ecosystem effects of fishing, different fishing scenarios, previously examined using ECOSIM, are simulated using the OSMOSE model. They explore the effects of targeting fish species in the southern Benguela considered to be predators (Cape hake Merluccius capensis and M. paradoxus) or prey (anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus, sardine Sardinops sagax, round herring Etrumeus whiteheadi). Simulation results are compared and are generally consistent with those obtained using an ECOSIM model. This cross-validation appears to be a promising means of evaluating the robustness of model outputs, when separate validation of marine ecosystem models are still difficult to perform.

INTRODUCTION Research on the sea fauna along the coasts of Turkey was initiated by foreign researchers at the begining of the 20th century and entered an intensive stage with Turkish researchers in the 1940s. However, the fish fauna of Turkish seas has still not been fully determined. Of these researchers, Tortonese (1) listed 300 species. Papaconstantinou and Tsimenids (2) listed 33 species. Papaconstantinou (3) listed the most of 447 species for Aegean Sea. Slastenenko (4) listed 200 species for Sea of Marmara and 189 species for Black Sea. Tortonese (1) reported 540 fish species in whole of Mediterranean. Demetropoulos and Neocleous (5) gave a list of fishes for Cyprus area.

  • Polydactylus Opercularis (Gill, 1863) Fig
    Threadfins of the World 65 Literature: Feltes in Carpenter (2003). Remarks: Although Polydactylus oligodon, originally described from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Jamaica on the basis of 2 specimens, had long been regarded as a junior synonym of P. virginicus by many authors, Randall (1966) recognized the former as valid and designated a lectotype for the species. Randall (1966) noted differences between P. oligodon and P. virginicus in the shape of the posterior margin of the maxilla, and certain meristic characters (including numbers of lateral-line scales, pectoral-fin rays and anal-fin rays) and proportional measurements (including length of anal-fin base). In particular, the rounded shape of the posterior margin of the maxilla has been subsequently treated as a diagnostic character for P. oligodon (versus truncate to concave in P. virginicus) in many publications (e.g. Randall in Fischer, 1978; Cervigón in Cervigón et al., 1993; Randall, 1996). According to Feltes in Carpenter (2003) and confirmed by examination by the author, however, that character shows considerable individual variation and it is difficult to clearly distinguish between P. oligodon and P. virginicus on that basis. Although P. oligodon and P. virginicus are very similar to each other and distinction between the 2 species in recent literature is somewhat confused, P. oligodon can be distinguished from the latter by the higher counts of pored lateral-line scales [67 to 73 (mode 70) versus 54 to 63 (mode 58) in the latter].

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.
