    Parasitic specificity in the Sparidae family fish “Pagellus erythrinus” of the El Kala coast, Algeria Yousria Gasmi, Karim Belhocine, Rabie Abdeli, Wyllia Khati Laboratory of Biodiversity and Pollution of Ecosystems, University of Chadli Bendjedid El Tarf, Algeria. Corresponding author: Y. Gasmi, [email protected] Abstract. The present study is the first to address the full set of parasites of the sea bream fish Pagellus erythrinus of the shores of El Kala (Algeria). Examination of 180 sea bream (Pagellus erythrinus), revealed a high level of diversity of the parasites of this fish. A total de 1,313 parasites were collected. The parasites collected belong to various systematic groups, comprising monogenetics (Lamellodiscus sp. Choricotyle sp., Microcotyle sp., and Microcotyle erythrini); digenetics (Sterigotrema sp. and Holorchis sp.); nematodes (Hysterothylacium sp.); and crustaceans (Caligus sp., Hatschekia sp., Clavella strumosa, Clavellotis sp., and Neobrachiella exigua). A study of the distribution of the parasites in terms of the size of the fish indicates that the smaller sized ones are the most infested and that the infestation of P. erythrinus by different parasitic communities (ectoparasites and endoparasites) varies with the season; being more pronounced during the warm season (summer) and low during the cold season (spring). Key Words: Lamellodiscus sp., Choricotyle sp., Microcotyle sp., Microcotyle erythrini, infestation. Introduction. Parasitism is a lasting interaction involving a species referred to a ‘parasite’, the existence of which existence depends closely on its association with another species. The latter is referred to as the ‘host’, and the parasite reduces the host’s viability (Cassier et al 1998; Combes 2001). Parasitism is a fundamental type of interaction in the living world.

The South China Sea is a major water body containing a large and diverse fish fauna. However, many areas of the South China Sea, particularly in Malaysia and Vietnam, have been poorly studied in terms of fish taxonomy and diversity. Local fish scientists and students have frequently faced difficulty when try- ing to identify fishes in their home countries.

    ECOLOGYt OSMOREGULATION AND REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF THE WHITE STEENBRAS t LITHOGNATHUS LITHOGNATHUS (TELEOSTEI: SPARIDAE)* JOHN A. P. MEHL Cape Provincial Department of Nature Conservation and Zoological Institute, University of Stellenbosch PUBLISHED FEBRUARY 1974 ABSTRACT Over a one-year period 437 steenbras, Lithog1Ulthus Iithog1Ulthus, ranging from 8-39 em fork length were sampled from the Heuningnes River Estuary. The length-weight relationship was linear and there was no fluctuation in the modal size range throughout the year. Steenbras up to the age of six years and over inhabited the estuary, adapting to large salinity fluctuations. Abundance of food items, mainly Crustacea and Annelida, and virtual absence of predators made the estuary an ideal nursery ground. Ectoparasitic infestation by leeches and copepods was moderately intense without causing any apparent deleterious effects. In a series of experiments designed to study osmoregulation in steenbras, it was found that haema­ tocrits from fish sampled after 48 hours in freshwater were significantly (p<O,01) higher than the seawater controls. Two of the five protein fractions, however, as well as total protein, chloride, sodium, potassium and osmolality were all significantly (p<O,Ol) decreased in freshwater. Steenbras were unable to survive more than one week in freshwater. Due to capture diuresis the plasma con­ stituents from a freshly captured sample were all significantly (p<O,Ol) higher when compared to steenbras acclimated for 48 hours in seawater. Gonads from the entire estuarine sample were all infantile, virtually impossible to sex and showed . ) no macroscopic signs of development. Histology of a representative sample showed them to be all 0 1 hermaphroditic, with mainly testicular-dominant ovotestes.

Although L. mormyrus are caught by fishermen with increasing amounts in recent years, there is a lack of information on the subject of biological features of the Black Sea species. In this study, length-weight distribution, morphologic and meristic features, age, sex distribution (according to histological examination), and genetic characteristics of L. mormyrus in the Black Sea were examined. Besides, the genetic analysis showed a significant level of genetic differentiation between three populations (Black Sea, Mediterranean and Aegean Sea) and populations.

ABSTRACT Three long-line methods have been studied in the Algarve: 1) small-hook long-line for inshore (less than 30 m) ‘white’ sea breams (Sparidae); 2) small-hook long-line for deeper water (40-60 m) ‘red’ sea breams; and 3) deep water (500-700 m) semi-pelagic long-line for hake Merluccius mer- luccius (Linnaeus, 1758). Selectivity studies were carried out with three hook sizes in the first two cases: Mustad round-bent Quality 2369 hooks, numbers 15, 13, and 11, baited with a standard- sized razor-shell Ensis siliqua (Linnaeus, 1758). Four hook sizes (numbers 10, 9, 7, and 5) of Stell round-bent, eyed hooks were used in the semi-pelagic long-line selectivity study, baited with a half of a standard-sized sardine. Some factors affecting catch composition and catch rates of the small hook long-lines were also evaluated: bait, gangion length, setting time, fishing ground, and depth. Species diversity was relatively high, with 40, 36 and 27 species, respectively, in the three stud- ies.

Iglésias1* and Pascal Lorance2 Abstract The red pandora, Pagellus bellottii, is a tropical and subtropical demersal porgy (Sparidae) distributed in the eastern Atlantic, mostly along African coast. Several recent records in the Gulf of Cádiz suggests a northward migration of the species. Two specimens of the red pandora were caught in the southeast Bay of Biscay during the 2014 French fishery survey programme. They represent the first records of the species for the Bay of Biscay and for French waters. In Europe the species has been previously recorded only in the Gulf of Cádiz in the Atlantic and in Spanish Mediterranean waters. The hypothesis that global climate change is a factor for this almost 7° northward species range extension, commonly distributed in the tropical and subtropical eastern Atlantic along the African coast, is analysed using temperature data from the World Ocean Atlas 2013. The northern extension of the distribution range of Pagellus bellottii most probably is a consequence of the warming waters of the Bay of Biscay over the past decades.
