CRP Grant No. NA03NMF4540416 Funding amount: $100,000 Federal $4,130 Match Patrick J. Harris and Jessica Stephen Marine Resources Research Institute South Carolina Department of Natural Resources 217 Fort Johnson Road P.O. Box 12559 Charleston, SC 29412 I. Characterization of commercial reef fish catch and bycatch off the southeast coast of the United States. Patrick J. Harris, South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, Charleston, SC 29412. Grant Number: NA03NMF4540416 July 2005. II. Abstract There is clearly a need to characterize the entire catch of commercial fishermen and compare differences in abundance and species diversity to what is caught in fishery-independent gear. As we move towards a multi-species management approach, these types of data are essential. In addition, estimates of release mortality are needed for stock assessments but currently this is not being measured for fishery-dependent data. Many reef fishes captured at depths greater than ~ 20 m often have problems submerging when released by commercial fishermen. The goal of the research project was to characterize the entire (retained and discarded) catch of reef fishes from a selected commercial fisherman including total catch composition and disposition of fishes that were released. During April- November 2004, Captain Mark Marhefka dedicated one fishing trip (5-7 day duration) each month to the collection of fishery-dependent data. Date, location and collection number were recorded for each site fished by Captain Marhefka using a PDA equipped with a GPS.

These analyses suggested the paraphyly of the genus Liza and also that the separation of Liza, Chelon and Oedalechilus might be unnatural. Moreover, all the species of the genus Mugil plus orthologs of Crenimugil crenilabis clustered together; however, molecular analyses suggested possible introgressions in Mugil cephalus and moreover, that fish identified as Mugil curema could correspond to two different species as already shown by karyotypic analyses. Keywords: Mugilidae, grey mullets, mitochondrial DNA, Mugil cephalus, introgression. INTRODUCTION We have focused this study on Mugilid species for which both cytochrome b (cytb) and 16S rDNA mtDNA sequences The family Mugilidae, commonly referred to as grey have been already published. Their geographic distributions mullets, includes several species which have a worldwide are briefly presented here. Oedalechilus labeo is limited to distribution; they inhabit marine, estuarine, and freshwater the Mediterranean Sea and the Moroccan Atlantic coast, environments at all latitudes except the Polar Regions [1]; a whereas, Liza and Chelon inhabit also the Eastern Atlantic few spend all their lives in freshwater [2].

FLORA AND FAUNA 7.1 EXISTING SITUATION 7.1.1 Scope This chapter addresses the matters listed in the ToR under the heading ‘Flora and Fauna’. These ToR include broad matters of environmental significance, ecosystems, and biodiversity and cover a wide range of often interrelated topics. These are discussed as follows: sensitive environmental areas matters of national environmental significance and state environmental significance* terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems* listed flora* listed fauna* listed migratory birds* overall biodiversity ecological processes and integrity* Ramsar wetlands and migratory bird agreements* fish and fisheries resources. Details of threats to biodiversity from pest plants and animals are provided in Chapter 19 (Biosecurity). Matters designated by an asterisk (*) can involve either or both Queensland and Commonwealth legislation. Chapter 22 (Matters of NES) deals specifically with the issues designated above from a Commonwealth perspective. Cross references between these chapters are provided as appropriate. 7.1.2 Information Sources This chapter draws heavily on technical assessments based on terrestrial and aquatic surveys as follows: July 2013 (aquatic – Appendix F; terrestrial – Appendix G) October 2013 (aquatic – Appendix F; terrestrial – Appendix G) February / March 2014 (aquatic – Addendum 1 of Appendix F; terrestrial – Appendix G); off- shore lake pipeline – Appendix H). It also refers to the protected matters search (Appendix I) and a range of government and private data sources. Aquis Resort at The Great Barrier Reef Revision: Final Environmental Impact Statement - June 2014 Page 7-1 7.1.3 Sensitive Environmental Areas Although the site is largely cleared, it is surrounded by remnant coastal vegetation and marine areas, most of which are sensitive environmental areas protected under a raft of Queensland legislation.

  • Mullets and the Impact of the Environmental Status of Burgas Bay on Their Populations
    Annual of Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski” Faculty of Biology Book 4 - Scientific Sessions of theFaculty of Biology 2019, volume 104, pp. 62-69 International Scientific Conference “Kliment’s Days”, Sofia 2018 MULLETS AND THE IMPACT OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS OF BURGAS BAY ON THEIR POPULATIONS RADOSLAVA BEKOVA1*, BOGDAN PRODANOV2, TODOR LAMBEV2 1 – Department of Marine Biology and Ecology, Institute of Oceanology–BAS, Varna, Bulgaria 2 - Department of Coastal Zone Dynamics, Institute of Oceanology–BAS, Varna, Bulgaria *Corresponding author: [email protected] Keywords: environmental assessment, mullets, population parameters, Burgas Bay Abstract: An ecosystem approach has been chosen for an assessment of the status of the populations of three mullet species in Burgas Bay. The complex data requirements for all three species and physicochemical parameters plus sediment are the basis for a comparative assessment of the population status of mullets in Burgas Bay. An assessment of the local anthropogenic impact was also made using hydrochemical analyses. The present study aims to extend and deepen the knowledge of the population- biological characteristics of three species of mullets (Mugil cephalus, Chelon auratus and Chelon saliens) from Burgas Bay by using an ecosystem scale research to determine the degree of contamination with biogenic substances and their impact on the mullet populations. INTRODUCTION Environmental changes due to anthropogenic factors affect all parts of the plant and animal world in inland waters, seas and oceans. The Black Sea is close to the so-called "red line" beyond which ecosystem degradation processes may become irreversible. Commercial fishing is the most unfavorable factor as it directly destroys a significant part of the populations of certain species, which in terms affects all other species that are in strictly specific relationships with the intensely exploited ones.

  • Identification of Juveniles of Grey Mullet Species (Teleostei
    Cah. Biol. Mar.

These analyses have shown that juveniles are L. aurata individuals; phylogenetic analyses supported this grouping with very high bootstrap values and also shown evidence of gene flow between Atlantic and Mediterranean populations. Moreover, phylogenetic analyses were congruent with the analyses of the number of pyloric caeca. As mugilid juveniles for aquaculture are still obtained from wild stocks, these data provided a valuable baseline for further investigations on identification of these fish. Moreover, using the polymerase chain reaction, sufficient DNA for phylogenetic analyses can be amplified from very small portions of caudal fins and these samples can be collected without sacrificing individuals, which is one important requirement for the study of species that young fry is used for stocking lagoons and lakes.
