  • (Coregonus Lavaretus (L.)) Caused by Competitor Invasion
    Speciation Reversal in European Whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus (L.)) Caused by Competitor Invasion Shripathi Bhat1*, Per-Arne Amundsen1, Rune Knudsen1, Karl Øystein Gjelland3, Svein-Erik Fevolden1, Louis Bernatchez2, Kim Præbel1 1 Department of Arctic and Marine Biology, University of Tromsø, Tromsø, Norway, 2 Institut de Biologie Inte´grative et des Syste`mes (IBIS), Universite´ Laval, Que´bec, Canada, 3 Norwegian Institute for Nature Research, Tromsø, Norway Abstract Invasion of exotic species has caused the loss of biodiversity and imparts evolutionary and ecological changes in the introduced systems. In northern Fennoscandia, European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus (L.)) is a highly polymorphic species displaying adaptive radiations into partially reproductively isolated and thus genetically differentiated sympatric morphs utilizing the planktivorous and benthivorous food niche in many lakes. In 1993, Lake Skrukkebukta was invaded by vendace (Coregonus albula (L.)) which is a zooplanktivorous specialist. The vendace displaced the densely rakered whitefish from its preferred pelagic niche to the benthic habitat harbouring the large sparsely rakered whitefish. In this study, we investigate the potential influence of the vendace invasion on the breakdown of reproductive isolation between the two whitefish morphs. We inferred the genotypic and phenotypic differentiation between the two morphs collected at the arrival (1993) and 15 years after (2008) the vendace invasion using 16 microsatellite loci and gill raker numbers, the most distinctive adaptive phenotypic trait between them. The comparison of gill raker number distributions revealed two modes growing closer over 15 years following the invasion. Bayesian analyses of genotypes revealed that the two genetically distinct whitefish morphs that existed in 1993 had collapsed into a single population in 2008.

  • First Record of a Coregonid Fish Species, Coregenus Albula (Linnaeus, 1758) (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) in Aktaş Lake Shared Between Turkey and Georgia
    J. Black Sea/Mediterranean Environment Vol. 25, No. 3: 325-332 (2019) SHORT COMMUNICATION First record of a coregonid fish species, Coregenus albula (Linnaeus, 1758) (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) in Aktaş Lake shared between Turkey and Georgia Sedat V. Yerli Department of Biology, Hacettepe University, SAL, Beytepe, Ankara, TURKEY Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The genus Coregenus (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) was recently considered not to be represented in Turkey. European cisco or vendace, Coregonus albula (Linnaeus, 1758) was reported for the first time for Turkey in this article with fifteen samples in Aktaş Lake, Ardahan. This species should be added to the checklist of Turkish fish fauna. Turkish name is proposed as “Akbalık” for this species. Keywords: Coregonus albula, first record, Aktaş Lake, Kartsakhi, alkaline lake, Georgia, Turkey Received: 30.10.2019, Accepted: 26.11.2019 Vendace or European cisco Coregonus albula (Linnaeus, 1758) is a native species for northern Europe. Berg (1948) reported the distribution of this species its morphological measurements in the former USSR and adjacent countries. Froese and Pauly (2019) summarized the natural distribution of vendace as Baltic basin, several lakes of upper Volga drainage; some lakes of White Sea basin and North Sea basin east of Elbe drainage; anadromous in Gulf of Finland and marine in northernmost freshened part of Gulf of Bothnia between Finland and Sweden; in Lake Inari, northern Finland; lower Rhine (now extirpated). The vendace was introduced, intentionally in some countries in Europe and United States of America. Vendace was introduced in 1959, 1982-1987 in the Irtysh River Basin and in 1960-61 in Lake Balkhash in Kazakhstan (Mitrofanov and Petr 1999).

  • Coregonus Maraena) Ecological Risk Screening Summary
    Maraena Whitefish (Coregonus maraena) Ecological Risk Screening Summary U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, April 2011 Revised, September 2014 and June 2017 Web Version, 09/14/2017 Image: E. Östman. Public domain. Available: http://eol.org/data_objects/26779416. (June 2017). 1 Native Range, and Status in the United States Native Range From Froese and Pauly (2017): “Europe: In the Baltic Sea: Swedish coast (including Bothnian Gulf, not in Gotland); in southern Baltic, extending from the Schlei to Gulf of Finland. Southeast North Sea Basin: Ems, Weser and Elbe drainages 1 and small rivers of Schleswig-Holstein and Denmark. Landlocked in several lakes in Poland, Sweden, and Russia.” Status in the United States From Neilson (2017): “Failed introduction.” “A shipment of 409 individuals from Lake Miedwie (formerly Madue Lake), Poland was stocked in Garnder Lake, Michigan in 1877 (Baird 1879; Todd 1983).” Means of Introductions in the United States From Neilson (2017): “Coregonus maraena, along with other species of Coregonus, was intentionally stocked as a food fish by the U.S. Fish Commission (Todd 1983). According to Baird (1879), 1,000 eggs of C. maraena were shipped from Poland to Michigan in 1877 and hatched in captivity at the State Hatching House in Detroit. A total of 409 of the young fish were stocked in Gardner Lake (Baird 1879; Todd 1983). Baird (1879) considered the stocking an experimental introduction of a European food fish.” Remarks From Neilson (2017): “There is much confusion regarding the identity of whitefish imported from Germany in the late 1800s by the U.S. Fish Commission, primarily due to the uncertain taxonomy and systematics of Coregonus (Kottelat and Freyhof 2007).

  • Identification and Modelling of a Representative Vulnerable Fish Species for Pesticide Risk Assessment in Europe
    Identification and Modelling of a Representative Vulnerable Fish Species for Pesticide Risk Assessment in Europe Von der Fakultät für Mathematik, Informatik und Naturwissenschaften der RWTH Aachen University zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Naturwissenschaften genehmigte Dissertation vorgelegt von Lara Ibrahim, M.Sc. aus Mazeraat Assaf, Libanon Berichter: Universitätsprofessor Dr. Andreas Schäffer Prof. Dr. Christoph Schäfers Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 30. Juli 2015 Diese Dissertation ist auf den Internetseiten der Universitätsbibliothek online verfügbar Erklärung Ich versichere, dass ich diese Doktorarbeit selbständig und nur unter Verwendung der angegebenen Hilfsmittel angefertigt habe. Weiterhin versichere ich, die aus benutzten Quellen wörtlich oder inhaltlich entnommenen Stellen als solche kenntlich gemacht zu haben. Lara Ibrahim Aachen, am 18 März 2015 Zusammenfassung Die Zulassung von Pflanzenschutzmitteln in der Europäischen Gemeinschaft verlangt unter anderem eine Abschätzung des Risikos für Organismen in der Umwelt, die nicht Ziel der Anwendung sind. Unvertretbare Auswirkungen auf den Naturhalt sollen vermieden werden. Die ökologische Risikoanalyse stellt die dafür benötigten Informationen durch eine Abschätzung der Exposition der Organismen und der sich daraus ergebenden Effekte bereit. Die Effektabschätzung beruht dabei hauptsächlich auf standardisierten ökotoxikologischen Tests im Labor mit wenigen, oft nicht einheimischen Stellvertreterarten. In diesen Tests werden z. B. Effekte auf das Überleben, das Wachstum und/oder die Reproduktion von Fischen bei verschiedenen Konzentrationen der Testsubstanz gemessen und Endpunkte wie die LC50 (Lethal Concentrations for 50%) oder eine NOEC (No Observed Effect Concentration, z. B. für Wachstum oder Reproduktionsparameter) abgeleitet. Für Fische und Wirbeltiere im Allgemeinen beziehen sich die spezifischen Schutzziele auf das Überleben von Individuen und die Abundanz und Biomasse von Populationen.

  • Rote Liste Der Fische (Pisces) Österreichs
    Rote Liste der Fische (Pisces) Österreichs Georg Wolfram, Ernst Mikschi*‡ Zusammenfassung Die vorliegende Arbeit folgt den Richtlinien zur Fortschreibung der Roten Liste gefähr- deter Tiere Österreichs (Zulka et al. 2001, Umweltbundesamt-Monographien Band 15, Wien). Die aktuelle Checkliste der Fische Österreichs umfasst 84 Taxa. Im Vergleich zur letzten Roten Liste (Spindler et al. 1997, Umweltbundesamt-Monographien Band 87, Wien) wurden einige Taxa aufgrund aktueller nomenklatorischer und taxonomischer Entwicklungen, auf die gesondert eingegangen wird, neu aufgenommen. Zwei Taxa werden als weltweit ausgestorben (Kategorie EX; Extinct) beurteilt, fünf Taxa sind regional ausgestorben (Kategorie RE; Regionally Extinct). In der Gefährdungs- kategorie „Critically Endangered“ (CR, vom Aussterben bedroht) finden sich sechs Ar- ten, 18 in der Kategorie „Endangered“ (EN; stark gefährdet) und 15 in der Kategorie „Vulnerable“ (VU; gefährdet). Neun Arten stehen auf der Vorwarnliste (Kategorie NT; Near Threatened), 17 weitere Arten, also rund ein Fünftel der aufgenommenen Taxa, sind in Österreich der Kategorie „Least Concern“ (LC; nicht gefährdet) zugeordnet. Für drei Taxa mit äußerst unsicherer taxonomischer Situation reicht die Datenlage für eine Ein- stufung nicht aus (Kategorie DD; Data Deficient). Bei weiteren neun in die Checkliste aufgenommenen Arten handelt es sich um überregional verbreitete und reproduzierende Neozoen, die explizit nicht in die Beurteilung im Rahmen der Roten Liste einbezogen werden (Kategorie NE; Not Evaluated). Aufgrund geänderter Definitionen der Gefährdungskategorien ist die vorliegende Ar- beit mit der Roten Liste von Spindler et al. (1997, Umweltbundesamt-Monographien Band 87, Wien) nur bedingt vergleichbar. Die meisten Unterschiede der Gefährdungs- einstufung sind auf methodische Änderungen oder eine geänderte Datenlage zurückzu- führen.

Merkmale und Merkmalskombinationen können daher bei Anwendung auf Fische anderer Länder zu nicht korrekten Ergebnissen führen. Identification key for Austrian freshwater fishes This identification key should only be used for fishes from Austrian freshwaters. This key will possibly not work for fishes from other European countries. Nobody is perfect – schon gar nicht ein Bestimmungsschlüssel. Ein Bestimmungsschlüssel baut auf charakteristischen Merkmalen auf, er vereinfacht und kann keinen Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit erheben. Auch dieser Bestimmungsschlüssel ist nur ein Versuch ein komplexes System in einen übersichtliche Form zu bringen. Die Natur sieht aber oft anders aus. Die Bandbreite an Merkmalen ist bei vielen Arten groß. Manche Populationen sind an unterschiedliche Umweltbedingungen angepasst und bilden unterscheidbare ökologische Formen. Andere Populationen sind isoliert und einige davon sind systematisch noch ungenügend erforscht. Möglicherweise taucht ja in Österreich noch die eine oder andere neue Art auf. Sollte es einmal nicht passen, oder wenn sich ein Fehler eingeschlichen hat, ersuche ich um Information - [email protected] oder unter obiger Adresse.
