    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.

Unfortunately, marine resource scarcity, financial incentives and inadequate or poorly enforced regulations have all promoted the mislabelling of fish species on global markets, the results of which may hold economic, conservation and health consequences. The primary aims of this study were to determine the most commonly available fish species on the South African market, to establish and compare DNA-based methods for the unambiguous identification of these species and to utilise the most applicable methods to evaluate the extent of mislabelling on the local fisheries market.

We used long-term Tide passive gear data, to investigate whether the moon and tides affected fish movement between inner and outer Shallow lagoon habitats in a Northern Mediterranean coastal lagoon. In particular, we used multivariate, threshold and non- Juvenile fishes linear correlation analyses to explore the relationship between fish catches and moon and tide variables in Movement transitional habitats, accounting for the presence of potential prey and other major temporal and environmental Grey shrimp variables. Fish movements between habitats were influenced by moon and tide factors, which had effects comparable to annual and seasonal variations, respectively. Overall, the magnitude of effects related to the moon parameters were smaller than most environmental parameters examined, but still larger than e.g. the presence of invertebrate prey (lagoon shrimp) or some of the tide factors. European flounder catches were positively cor- related with disk illumination, while sand and black goby were influenced by the moon phase. Other benthic and pelagic species showed no significant correlation.

  • Taxonomy and Life History of the Zebra Seabream, Diplodus Cervinus (Perciformes: Sparidae), in Southern Angola
    TAXONOMY AND LIFE HISTORY OF THE ZEBRA SEABREAM, DIPLODUS CERVINUS (PERCIFORMES: SPARIDAE), IN SOUTHERN ANGOLA A thesis submitted in the fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE of RHODES UNVERSITY by Alexander Claus Winkler June 2013 ABSTRACT The zebra sea bream, Diplodus cervinus (Sparidae) is an inshore fish comprised of two boreal subspecies from the Gulf of Oman and the Mediterranean / north eastern Atlantic and one austral subspecies from South Africa and southern Angola. The assumption of a single austral subspecies has, however, been questioned due to mounting molecular and morphological evidence suggesting that the cool Benguela current is a vicariant barrier that has separated many synonymous inshore fish species between South Africa and southern Angola. The aims of this thesis are to conduct a comparative morphological analysis of Diplodus cervinus in southern Angola and South Africa in order to classify the southern Angolan population and then to conduct a life history assessment to assess the life history impact of allopatry on this species between the two regions. Results of the morphological findings of the present study (ANOSIM, p < 0.05, Rmeristic = 0.42) and (Rmorphometric = 0.30) along with a concurrent molecular study (FST = 0.4 – 0.6), identified significant divergence between specimens from South Africa (n = 25) and southern Angola (n = 37) and supported stock separation and possibly sub-speciation, depending on the classification criteria utilised. While samples from the two boreal subspecies were not available for the comparative morphological or molecular analysis, comparisons of the colouration patterns between the three subspecies, suggested similarity between the southern Angola and the northern Atlantic / Mediterranean populations.
