Parks Victoria Technical Paper Series No. 79 Marine Natural Values Study (Vol 2) Marine Protected Areas of the Flinders and Twofold Shelf Bioregions Jan Barton, Adam Pope and Steffan Howe* School of Life & Environmental Sciences Deakin University *Parks Victoria August 2012 Parks Victoria Technical Series No. 79 Flinders and Twofold Shelf Bioregions Marine Natural Values Study EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Along Victoria’s coastline there are 30 Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) that have been established to protect the state’s significant marine environmental and cultural values. These MPAs include 13 Marine National Parks (MNPs), 11 Marine Sanctuaries (MSs), 3 Marine and Coastal Parks, 2 Marine Parks, and a Marine Reserve, and together these account for 11.7% of the Victorian marine environment. The highly protected Marine National Park System, which is made up of the MNPs and MSs, covers 5.3% of Victorian waters and was proclaimed in November 2002. This system has been designed to be representative of the diversity of Victoria’s marine environment and aims to conserve and protect ecological processes, habitats, and associated flora and fauna. The Marine National Park System is spread across Victoria’s five marine bioregions with multiple MNPs and MSs in each bioregion, with the exception of Flinders bioregion which has one MNP. -

Diet, Food Preference, and Algal Availability for Fishes and Crabs on Intertidal Reef Communities in Southern California
Environmental Biology of Fishes 37: 75-95,1993. 0 1993 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. Diet, food preference, and algal availability for fishes and crabs on intertidal reef communities in southern California James P. Barry’ & Michael J. Ehret* A-001 Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, CA 92093, U.S.A. ‘Present address: Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, 160 Central Ave., Pacific Grove, CA 93950, U.S.A. 2 Present address: Biology Department, Old Dominion University, Norfolk, VA 23507, U.S. A. Received 18.9.1991 Accepted 3.9.1992 Key words: Herbivory, Kyphosidae, Girella, Hermosilla, Pachygrapsus, Community structure, Foraging, Chemical ecology Synopsis Herbivory by wide-ranging fishes is common over tropical reefs, but rare in temperate latitudes where the effects of herbivorous fishes are thought to be minimal. Along the west coast of North America, herbivory by fishes on nearshore reefs is largely restricted to a few members of the Kyphosidae, distributed south of Pt. Conception. This paper presents information on natural diets and results from feeding choice experiments for two abundant kyphosids from intertidal habitats in San Diego, California - Girella nigricans and Hermosilla azurea, and similar data for the lined shore crab, Pachygrapsus crassipes, which also forages over intertidal reefs. These results are compared with the availability of algae in intertidal habitats measured during summer and winter, on both disturbed and undisturbed habitats. The diets of juveniles of G. nigricans and H. azurea collected from nearshore habitats were dominated by animal prey (mainly amphipods), but adults of these fishes, and P. crassipes, consumed algae nearly exclusively, with 26,10, and 14 taxa of algae identified from G. -

We attempt to resolve the agents of change by examining major temporal TAS 7001, Australia and distributional shifts in the fish fauna and making a tentative attribution of causal factors. Location Temperate seas of south-eastern Australia. Methods Mixed data sources synthesized from published accounts, scientific surveys, spearfishing and angling competitions, commercial catches and underwa- ter photographic records, from the ‘late 1800s’ to the ‘present’, were examined to determine shifts in coastal fish distributions. Results Forty-five species, representing 27 families (about 30% of the inshore fish families occurring in the region), exhibited major distributional shifts thought to be climate related. These are distributed across the following categories: species previously rare or unlisted (12), with expanded ranges (23) and/or abundance increases (30), expanded populations in south-eastern Tasmania (16) and extra- limital vagrants (4). -

The Distribution Patterns of Exploited Girellid, Kyphosid and Sparid Fishes on Temperate Rocky Reefs in New South Wales, Australia
131 The distribution patterns of exploited girellid, kyphosid and sparid fishes on temperate rocky reefs in New South Wales, Australia MICHAELKINGSFORD School of Marine Biology and Aquaculture,James Cook University, Townsville,Queensland 4811, Australia ([email protected]) SUMMARYGirellids and sparids rank highest as the groups of fishes taken by rock fishers in New South Wales, Australia.Rapid visual counts that were stratifiedby depth and transects that were stratifiedby habitat (e.g. kelp forestand urchingrazed barrens) showed that girellidswere most abundant in shallowwater (< 3m deep). A few aggregations(primarily Girella tricuspidata) were found in waters up to 15 m deep. No juvenile G. tricuspidata were observed on reefs, all of the fish in counts were greater than 200mm SL. In contrast, G. elevata of all size lasses (30-300mm SL) were found in water less than 3 m deep. Almost all Kyphosus (98%) were in shallow water.Sparids (57%) were found in shallow water, although some (Pagers auratus) were only found in deep or mid-depthstrata. Girellids,kyphosids and some sparids used the intertidalat high fide. Girellidswere observed to feed in the shallows.Juvenile G. elevata (30-70 mm SL) fed in the intertidalmostly on rocky surfaces, tubeworrns and the backs of large limpets (Cellana spp.) where algae were abundant. Shallow waters and the intertidal of rockyreefs have probablybeen underestimated interms of importance to fisheries.

Microchemical Analyses of Otoliths in Baltic Sea Fish
Microchemical analyses of otoliths in Baltic Sea fish -Possibilities and limitations of otolith elemental analysis to describe individual life history and stock characteristics of fish in the Baltic Sea- Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel vorgelegt von Lasse Marohn Kiel, Juli 2011 Referent: PD Dr. Reinhold Hanel Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Carsten Schulz Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 04.10.2011 Zum Druck genehmigt: Kiel, Der Dekan SUMMARY In this thesis otolith microchemistry analyses were used to gain insights into the individual life history and stock characteristics of three fish species from the Baltic Sea - the European eel Anguilla anguilla, the Atlantic cod Gadus morhua and the thicklip grey mullet Chelon labrosus. The special hydrographic environment of the world’s largest brackish water system provide promising conditions for the use of otolith elemental analysis to investigate individual migration patterns and stock structures of fish. Here, it was used to gain information with relevance for stock management of fish species that differ widely in their biology, ecology and stock structure. In chapter I the influence of continental migratory behaviour on health and spawner quality of the European eel was analysed. Otolith strontium (Sr) composition was used to identify characteristic migration patterns. Results show that the muscle fat contents of silver eels with strictly catadromous life cycles are significantly reduced compared to silver eels that never entered freshwaters. Furthermore, prevalence and infection intensities of the swimbladder nematode Anguillicoloides crassus are highly increased in catadromous silver eels. Both, a reduced accumulation of fat reserves and intense A. -

Please feel free to print it and take it with you as an ‘aide memoir’ for your dive. It contains all the information you need to contribute to the EARTHDIVE Global Dive Log. 1.1 Introduction The EARTHDIVE Global Dive Log is a pioneering methodology that has been developed in partnership with These marine s helped thirty UNEP-WCMCand marine scientists from around the world. cientists establish EARTHDIVE eco-regions - areas of water that share a relatively similar climate and contain a common assembly of natural habitats and species. They then identified key indicator species for each region - an important set of marine animals whose numbers and changing population can tell us a lot about the changing state of our oceans. You can help observe and record sightings of these marine animals during a dive or snorkel trip and enter observations into the Global Dive Log.
