  • Fish Assemblage of the Mamanguape Environmental Protection Area, NE Brazil: Abundance, Composition and Microhabitat Availability Along the Mangrove-Reef Gradient
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 10(1): 109-122, 2012 Copyright © 2012 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Fish assemblage of the Mamanguape Environmental Protection Area, NE Brazil: abundance, composition and microhabitat availability along the mangrove-reef gradient Josias Henrique de Amorim Xavier1, Cesar Augusto Marcelino Mendes Cordeiro2, Gabrielle Dantas Tenório1, Aline de Farias Diniz1, Eugenio Pacelli Nunes Paulo Júnior1, Ricardo S. Rosa1 and Ierecê Lucena Rosa1 Reefs, mangroves and seagrass biotopes often occur in close association, forming a complex and highly productive ecosystem that provide significant ecologic and economic goods and services. Different anthropogenic disturbances are increasingly affecting these tropical coastal habitats leading to growing conservation concern. In this field-based study, we used a visual census technique (belt transects 50 m x 2 m) to investigate the interactions between fishes and microhabitats at the Mamanguape Mangrove-Reef system, NE Brazil. Overall, 144 belt transects were performed from October 2007 to September 2008 to assess the structure of the fish assemblage. Fish trophic groups and life stage (juveniles and adults) were recorded according to literature, the percent cover of the substrate was estimated using the point contact method. Our results revealed that fish composition gradually changed from the Estuarine to the Reef zone, and that fish assemblage was strongly related to the microhabitat availability, as suggested by the predominance of carnivores at the Estuarine zone and presence of herbivores at the Reef zone. Fish abundance and diversity were higher in the Reef zone and estuary margins, highlighting the importance of structural complexity. A pattern of nursery area utilization, with larger specimens at the Transition and Reef Zone and smaller individuals at the Estuarine zone, was recorded for Abudefduf saxatilis, Anisotremus surinamensis, Lutjanus alexandrei, and Lutjanus jocu.

    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE, 34(1): 21-59,1984 DESCRIPTION OF PORKFISH LARVAE (ANISOTREMUS VIRGINICUS, HAEMULIDAE) AND THEIR OSTEOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT Thomas Potthoff, Sharon Kelley, Martin Moe and Forrest Young ABSTRACT Wild-caught adult porkfish (Anisotremus virginicus, Haemulidae) were spawned in the laboratory and their larvae reared. A series of 35 larvae 2.4 mm NL to 21.5 mm SL from 2 to 30 days old or older (larvae of unknown age) was studied for pigmentation characteristics. Cleared and stained specimens were examined for meristic and osteological development. Cartilaginous neural and haemal arches develop first anteriorly, at the center, and posteriorly, above and below the notochord, but ossification of the vertebral column is from anterior in a posterior direction. Epipleural rib pairs develop from bone, but pleural rib pairs develop from cartilage first and then ossify. The second dorsal, anal and caudal fins develop rays first and simultaneously, followed by first dorsal fin spine development. The pectoral and pelvic fins are the last of all fins to develop rays. All bones basic to a perciform pectoral girdle develop with cartilaginous radials present between the pectoral fin ray bases. Development and structure of pre dorsal bones and dorsal and anal fin pterygiophores were studied. All bones basic to a perciform caudal complex developed and no fusion of any of these bones was observed in the adults. Radial cartilages developed ventrad in the hypural complex. The hyoid arches originated from cartilage but the branchiostegal rays formed from bone. The development and anatomy of the branchial skeleton were studied. Spines develop on the four bones of the opercular series in larvae and juveniles but are absent in the adults.

This study aimed to compare the body shapes of five populations of abu mullet, Planiliza abu (Heckel, 1843), in Bushehr basin using geometric morphometric method. Some 162 specimens from Hendijan, Genaveh, Helleh, Kaki and Mond rivers were used. Three morphometric characters, total length (TL), fork length (FL) and standard length (SL) were measured. Samples were photographed from the left side, then 18 landmarks were digitized using ImageJ software. Data obtained from Procrustes were analyzed by multivariate analysis using PCA and CVA. The results of PCA analysis showed significant differences between Kaki and other populations (P < 0.0001).

Los parásitos se fijaron, preservaron y cuantificaron mediante procedimientos estandarizados. Se colectaron 95 parásitos de siete especies, con una abundancia media total de 0.77. El promedio de la riqueza de especies fue 0.46. Los cuatro parásitos con mayor prevalencia y abundancia media fueron: Choricotyle isaciencis Oliva, González, Rus & Luque, 2009, Corynosoma obtuscens (Lincicome, 1943), Proleptus carvajali Fernández y Villalba, 1985, y Clavella simplex Castro y Baeza, 1985. Los parásitos de I. conceptionis señalan que los tres índices de agregación [Dispersión (ID), Discrepancia de Poulin (D) y Binomial Negativa (k)] mostraron mayormente una distribución agregada. La prevalencia de C. isaciencis estuvo correlacionada con la longitud total del pez hospedero. En relación al kn (factor de condición relativo), no se observó que los peces parasitados con C. obtuscens, C. isaciencis, ectoparásitos y endoparásitos presentasen valores más altos en compara- ción con los peces no parasitados. El índice gonadosomático (IGS) no se relacionó con ninguno de los índices de ecología parasitaria.

To bridge the knowledge gap on these species, size composition, growth and mortality as well as aspects of reproduction were assessed. Samples were collected from major fish landing sites along the coast of Ghana from September 2018 to August 2019.

Phylogenetic analyses were Fish performed on 97 grunt species based on sequence data collected from seven loci. Divergence time estimation Functional traits indicates that Haemulidae originated during the mid Eocene (54.7–42.3 Ma) but that the major lineages were Morphospace formed during the mid-Oligocene 30–25 Ma. We propose a new classification that reflects the phylogenetic Macroevolution history of grunts. Overall the pattern of morphological and functional diversification in grunts appears to be Zooplanktivore strongly linked with feeding ecology. Feeding traits and the first principal component of body shape strongly separate species that feed in benthic and pelagic habitats. The benthic-to-pelagic axis has been the major axis of ecomorphological diversification in this important group of tropical shoreline fishes, with about 13 transitions between feeding habitats that have had major consequences for head and body morphology.
