OLDFIELD1,2, ABHINAV KAKUTURU1, WILLIAM I. LUTTERSCHMIDT2, O. TOM LORENZ3, ADAM E. COHEN4, AND DEAN A. HENDRICKSON4 ABSTRACT The Rio Grande Cichlid, Herichthys cyanoguttatus, is native to the drainages of the Gulf Coast of northern Mexico and southern Texas and has been introduced at several sites in the US. Previous observations have suggested that non-native populations in Louisiana that are currently recognized as H. cyanoguttatus resemble another species, the Lowland Cichlid, H. carpintis. Traditional morphological and genetic techniques have been insufficient to differentiate these species, but H. carpintis has been reported to differ fromH. cyanoguttatus in color pattern, so we turned to novel electronic photo archives to determine the identity of the species introduced in Louisiana. First, we used the public databases Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Database and Fishes of Texas to infer the historical distributions of these species in the US. -

Some farms specialize in one or a few fish was about US$47.2 million. Given the additional economic groups, while other farms produce a wide spectrum of effects of tropical fish trade such as support industries, aquatic livestock. wholesalers, retail pet stores, and aquarium product manufacturing, the importance to Florida is tremendous. Fish can be grouped in a number of different ways. One major division in the industry which has practical signifi- Florida’s tropical ornamental aquaculture industry is cance is that between egg-laying species and live-bearing concentrated in Hillsborough, Polk, and Miami-Dade species.

Final Report 2005-483-033 V1
FISH ASSEMBLAGE CHANGES IN THREE WESTERN GULF SLOPE DRAINAGES Final Project Report (2005-483-033) Submitted to Texas Water Development Board By Texas State University-San Marcos Dr. Timothy Bonner Dennis T. Runyan July 31, 2007 Dr. Timothy H. Bonner, Department of Biology/Aquatic Station, Texas State University, San Marcos, TX 78666 ([email protected]) Dennis T. Runyan, Department of Biology/Aquatic Station, Texas State University, San Marcos, TX 78666 ([email protected]) Anthropogenic impacts on rivers and streams directly and indirectly affect aquatic fauna (Hughes et al. 2005). These impacts alter hierarchical-ordered abiotic and biotic factors that determine faunal distribution, composition, abundance, and life history of fishes by limiting habitat components or by modifying biotic interactions (Deacon et al. 1979; Schlosser 1991; Daniels et al. 2005). Consequently, anthropogenic impacts on fishes worldwide range from moderate to severe (Anderson et al. 1983; Rutherford et al. 1987; Warren and Burr 1994; Tallman et al. 2005a; 2005b) and likely will continue as the demand for surface waters for hydroelectricity and recreation and surface and subsurface waters for municipal use increase (Baxter and Glaude 1980; Gore and Shields 1995; Collier et al. 1996; Poff et al. 1997). The degree of change in fish assemblage composition and abundance has often been used as a measure of anthropogenic impact (Pflieger and Grace 1987; Martinez et al. 1994; Anderson et al. 1995; Bonner and Wilde 2000; Edwards 2001; Contreras-Balderas et al. 2002). However, fish assemblages do not respond consistently across an impact gradient because of local and regional differences in lotic environments and zoogeographical influences. -

Potential Influence of Exchanges between the Lower Guadalupe River and Oxbow Lakes on Food Web Dynamics Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences Texas A&M AgriLife Research College Station, Texas Dr. Kirk O. Winemiller, PI Marcelo Andrade* Caroline Arantes Thethela Bokhutlo Luke Bower Eduardo Cunha** Friedrich Keppeler Edwin Lopez Yasmin Quintana David Saenz In collaboration with: Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Inland Fisheries, River Studies San Marcos, Texas Kevin Mayes Clint Robertson Initial Submission Date October 2017 Final Project Report Dated June 2018 Texas Water Development Board Contract No. 1448311791 Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Contract No. 476296 [* visiting scientist from Universidade Federal do Pará, Brazil] [** visiting scientist from Universidade Estadual de Maringá, Brazil] Executive Summary The objective of this project was to contribute to understanding of flow-ecology relationships in the lower Guadalupe River by examining how lateral connectivity may facilitate exchanges of organic material, including aquatic organisms, between the river channel and oxbow lakes to influence food web dynamics. An important function of high-flow pulses in lowland rivers of Texas is the creation of lateral connections between the channel and oxbow lakes that provide important habitat for fishes. Oxbow lakes are highly productive aquatic habitats for many plants and animals and function as nursery areas for many fish species. Fish movement between the river channel and oxbows during periods of lateral connectivity can influence food web dynamics in both habitats. Food web dynamics also are influenced by recruitment dynamics of aquatic organisms that in turn are influenced by ecosystem productivity in relation to flow conditions. In the lower Guadalupe River, there are moderate increases in turbidity during high flow pulses, and the river channel remains net autotrophic (i.e., photosynthesis rate > aquatic respiration rate). -

Smith An Abstract of the Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science (in Zoology) Observations of resource utilization and feeding behaviors of the endemic cichlid ecomorphs of Cuatro Cienegas, Coahuila were made in three consecutive summers. Comparison of diets between the two major morphs of this species (by gut content analysis and the Schoener index of diet overlap) indicated that ecological differences are not as great as expected on the basis of distinct trophic morph- ologies. A lack of dietary specialization was shown in the season when food was presumably most abundant, a finding which is apparently not consistent with optimal foraging theory. -
