(Digenea: Acanthocolpidae) from Carangoides fulvoguttatus (Forsskål, 1775) (Perciformes: Carangidae) from Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia RODNEY A. BRAY1 & THOMAS H. CRIBB2 1Department of Zoology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, UK, email: [email protected] 2Centre for Marine Studies and Department of Microbiology and Parasitology, The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland 4074, Australia, email: [email protected] Abstract A new species, Stephanostomum tantabiddii n. sp., is described from the yellowspotted trevally Carangoides fulvoguttatus from Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia. It has 38–45 circum-oral spines and the vitellarium reaches to no less than 17% of the hindbody length from the ventral sucker. It differs from other species of Stephanostomum with these characteristics by various combinations of the ventral hiatus of the circum-oral spine rows, the relatively long pars prostatica and short ejacu- latory duct, the elongate body and the wide gaps between the gonads. Key words: Stephanostomum tantabiddii n. sp., Acanthocolpidae, Digenea, Carangoides fulvogut- tatus, Carangidae, Perciformes, Ningaloo Coral Reef, Western Australia Introduction Members of the large genus Stephanostomum Looss, 1899 parasitise a wide variety of teleost hosts, but a significant proportion of them are found in fishes of the perciform fam- ily Carangidae. This family includes many large pelagic piscivores. The second intermedi- ate hosts of Stephanostomum are almost always found to be fishes and, as piscivores, carangids are therefore particularly susceptible to infection (Pérez-Urbiola & Martínez- Díaz, 2001). -

NMFS proposes to implement the specifications for fishing year 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 separately prior to each fishing year. The specifications pertain to ACLs for coral reef ecosystem fisheries in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ or federal waters; generally 3-200 nautical miles or nm) around American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), Guam, and Hawaii, and a post-season AM to correct the overage of an ACL if it occurs. Because of the large number of individual coral reef ecosystem management unit species (CREMUS) in each island area, individual species were aggregated into higher taxonomic groups, generally at the family level. -

Given its close Kerala, "Reshmi" proximity to the Kochi city and to the international sea route Puthuvypeen has attracted many investment T.C. 15/1746, Forest Lane, projects in the near past. Further, of late, Government of Kerala decided to set up a mega oceanarium Vazhuthacaud Thycaud (PO) project together with a Marine Biological Research Centre at Puthuvypeen with the objective of Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, imparting awareness on the marine resources of the Arabian Sea. Though the development projects India contribute to advancements in the social and economic fronts and overall growth of the region, they may also bring in adverse effects on the environmental quality, if adequate precautions are not taken to prevent them. A comprehensive database on the baseline environmental characteristics is a pre- requisite for an integrated assessment of environmental impacts, if any, with respect to pre-construction, construction and post-construction phases of the projects. The present study which forms part of a larger integrated study was meant to collect information on fin fishes and shell fishes of the area with a view to act as a baseline data for future studies on the impact of the projects on the aquatic environment. -

The Vertical Distribution of Fish on Two Offshore Oil Platforms
The vertical distribution of fish on two offshore oil platforms Thomas Tothill 21530074 Supervisors: Prof. Jessica Meeuwig1 Prof. Richard Hobbs2 1 Marine Future Lab, School of Biological Sciences, University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA 6009, Australia 2 School of Biological Sciences, University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA 6009, Australia Marine Ecology Progress Series This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a Master of Biological Sciences, specialising in Marine Biology BIOL556 Research Dissertation School of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science The University of Western Australia May 2019 Word Count: 8752 1 Abstract Many offshore oil and gas platforms around the globe are reaching their end-of-life and will require decommissioning in the next few decades. Australian legislation stipulates complete removal of obsolete platforms, however in situ decommissioning is currently under consideration. Knowledge on the ecology of offshore platforms in Australia is limited and the subsequent consequences of decommissioning remain poorly understood. Remotely operated vehicle (ROV) video is often collected during standard industry operations and may provide insight into the marine life associating with offshore platforms, however the utility of this video for scientific purposes remains unclear. Archival ROV video surveys of the Wandoo oil platforms on Australia’s North West Shelf were tested for its utility and found that the imagery was limited in scientific value due to the haphazard method of collection. It is recommended that future surveys conduct standardised transects in high definition video at constant speeds and orientations. Based on a subset of the usable ROV video, the influence of depth and structural complexity on taxonomic richness, abundance, biomass and assemblage structure of fish populations was assessed on the Wandoo oil platforms. -
