  • Guide to the Coastal Marine Fishes of California
    STATE OF CALIFORNIA THE RESOURCES AGENCY DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME FISH BULLETIN 157 GUIDE TO THE COASTAL MARINE FISHES OF CALIFORNIA by DANIEL J. MILLER and ROBERT N. LEA Marine Resources Region 1972 ABSTRACT This is a comprehensive identification guide encompassing all shallow marine fishes within California waters. Geographic range limits, maximum size, depth range, a brief color description, and some meristic counts including, if available: fin ray counts, lateral line pores, lateral line scales, gill rakers, and vertebrae are given. Body proportions and shapes are used in the keys and a state- ment concerning the rarity or commonness in California is given for each species. In all, 554 species are described. Three of these have not been re- corded or confirmed as occurring in California waters but are included since they are apt to appear. The remainder have been recorded as occurring in an area between the Mexican and Oregon borders and offshore to at least 50 miles. Five of California species as yet have not been named or described, and ichthyologists studying these new forms have given information on identification to enable inclusion here. A dichotomous key to 144 families includes an outline figure of a repre- sentative for all but two families. Keys are presented for all larger families, and diagnostic features are pointed out on most of the figures. Illustrations are presented for all but eight species. Of the 554 species, 439 are found primarily in depths less than 400 ft., 48 are meso- or bathypelagic species, and 67 are deepwater bottom dwelling forms rarely taken in less than 400 ft.

Tewes, Kulka, D.W. Graham, R.T. Bizzarro, J.J. Fordham, Ebert, S.V. Carlson, D.A. J.K. Kyne, P.M. Edited by and Caribbean Chondrichthyans Executive Summary This report from the IUCN Shark Specialist Group includes the first compilation of conservation status assessments for the 282 chondrichthyan species (sharks, rays, and chimaeras) recorded from North American, Central American, and Caribbean waters. The status and needs of those species assessed against the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species criteria as threatened (Critically Endangered, Endangered, and Vulnerable) are highlighted. An overview of regional issues and a discussion of current and future management measures are also presented. A primary aim of the report is to inform the development of chondrichthyan research, conservation, and management priorities for the North American, Central American, and Caribbean region. Results show that 13.5% of chondrichthyans occurring in the region qualify for one of the three threatened categories. These species face an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild (Critically Endangered; 1.4%), a very high risk of extinction in the wild (Endangered; 1.8%), or a high risk of extinction in the wild (Vulnerable; 10.3%).

  • Revealing Trophic Transmission Pathways of Marine Tapeworms
    Parasitology Research (2019) 118:1435–1444 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00436-019-06264-3 GENETICS, EVOLUTION, AND PHYLOGENY - ORIGINAL PAPER Revealing trophic transmission pathways of marine tapeworms Jerusha Bennett1 & Fátima Jorge1 & Robert Poulin1 & Haseeb Randhawa2,3,4,5 Received: 27 September 2018 /Accepted: 11 February 2019 /Published online: 15 March 2019 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Parasites are important components of natural systems, and among their various roles, parasites strongly influence the flow of energy between and within food webs. Over 1000 tapeworm species are known to parasitise elasmobranchs, although full life cycles are resolved for fewer than 10 of them. The lack in resolution stems from the inability to distinguish larval from adult stages using morphology alone. Molecular elucidation of trophic transmission pathways is the next step in understanding the role of hosts and parasites within food webs. We investigated the parasite assemblage of New Zealand’s rough skate, Zearaja nasuta. Skates and their prey items (obtained from the skates’ stomachs) were dissected for the recovery of adult and larval tapeworms, respectively. A fragment of the 28S rDNA region was amplified for worm specimens with the aim to confirm species identity of parasites within rough skates and to uncover trophic transmission pathways that exploit the predation links between rough skates and their prey. We identified seven species of tapeworms from four tapeworm orders. Four trophic transmission pathways were resolved between three prey items from skates stomachs and skates, and one pathway between larval tapeworm sequence from a New Zealand sole and skate, i.e.
