  • Effect of Microhabitat Structure on the Distribution of an Endangered Fish, Coreoperca Kawamebari (Temminck & Schlegel, 1843
    water Article Effect of Microhabitat Structure on the Distribution of an Endangered Fish, Coreoperca kawamebari (Temminck & Schlegel, 1843) in the Geum River, South Korea Jong-Yun Choi , Seong-Ki Kim, Jeong-Cheol Kim and Jong-Hak Yun * National Institute of Ecology, Seo-Cheon Gun, Chungcheongnam Province 325-813, Korea; [email protected] (J.-Y.C.); [email protected] (S.-K.K.); [email protected] (J.-C.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-41-950-5470 Received: 25 May 2020; Accepted: 9 June 2020; Published: 12 June 2020 Abstract: Macrophytes play a major role in the structuring of aquatic environments and may influence the distribution and feeding habits of fish species. We explored the microhabitat characteristics influencing the spatial distribution of newly discovered Coreoperca kawamebari (Temminck & Schlegel, 1843) in the upstream reaches of the Geum River. Out of 21 study sites, C. kawamebari was found in 10 sites, and its abundance was strongly positively correlated with “vegetated” microhabitats, especially those covered by elodeids (e.g., Ceratophyllum demersum). The utilization of elodeids by the piscivores fish, C. kawamebari, may limit the abundance of other native fishes, and stable isotope analysis also showed that C. kawamebari is likely to consume other fish species. However, the influence of other fish species on C. kawamebari is assumed to be small, considering that C. kawamebari is a latent predator. Although the abundance of other fish was low within the preferred microhabitat of C. kawamebari, other species were abundant in each site where C. kawamebari was dominant. From this finding, we conclude that the successful settlement of C.

  • Prey Survival and Vulnerability of Juvenile Rhynchocypris Oxycephalus in Juvenile Fish Shelters Under Predation by Korean Native Piscivorous Fish (Coreoperca Herzi)

Academic Editor: Wayne O’Connor Received: 10 June 2016; Accepted: 29 December 2016; Published: 9 January 2017 Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the newly-developed juvenile fish shelter (JFS) for its ability to increase prey survival and to improve species diversity in a freshwater ecosystem. An experiment was performed in an outdoor large-scale mesocosm three times from 2011 to 2012 by comparing the responses to adjustment as a function of the volume of JFS in the control and experimental groups. Analysis results of the environmental monitoring over three periods indicated only minor differences in the physicochemical characteristics of the water quality and phyto- and zoo-plankton biomass, thereby enabling a comparative analysis of the feeding ecology. However, the water temperature exhibited large fluctuations, ranging from 16.4 to 27.6 ◦C, and high water temperature conditions (Period 1, 25.6 ± 2.0 ◦C) enhanced the predation activity of the piscivorous fish Coreoperca herzi (C.

One hundred primer sets in the flanking region of dinucleotide and trinucleotide repeat motifs were designed and tested for efficiency in polymerase chain reaction amplification. Of these primer sets, 16 new markers (16%) were successfully amplified with unambiguous polymorphic alleles in 16 individuals of Pungtungia herzi. Cross-species amplification with these markers was then examined in two related species, Pseudopungtungia nigra and Pseudopungtungia tenuicorpa.
