  • Behavioural Consistency and Foraging Specialisations in the Australasian Gannet (Morus Serrator)
    Behavioural consistency and foraging specialisations in the Australasian gannet (Morus serrator) By Marlenne Adriana Rodríguez Malagón B.Sc. Biology, M.Sc. Ecology Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Life & Env) Deakin University October 2018 i To MM and JMB, for your unconditional love and your faith in me, thanks to you I fulfilled this dream. I love you ii ABSTRACT For decades conspecifics were considered as equivalent in ecological studies, but recent science now recognises the presence and importance of inter-individual differences. These differences can be driven by intrinsic factors such as sex, phenotype, and/or personality, and are known to influence individual foraging decisions. The concept of ‘individual foraging specialist’ refers to the use of a specific proportion of the full range of available resources (or foraging strategies) used by a subset of a population and involves the repetition of specific behaviours over time. Furthermore, behavioural consistency and/or individual specialisation can arise within different aspects of a species’ ecological niche. The presence of both phenomena may vary over spatial and temporal scales due to environmental stochasticity, but because these phenomena can have major implications for the ecology of individuals, it is important to identify and quantify the presence individual foraging specialisation and behavioural consistency in animal populations. Seabirds are major marine predators and traits such as colonial breeding, central-place foraging during the breeding season, and high levels of nest-site fidelity make them good models to investigate behavioural consistency. The Australasian gannet (Morus serrator) is a large pelagic seabird endemic to Australia and New Zealand.

August, 1962 FISHERIES RESEARCH BOARD OF CANADA Biological Station, Nanaimo, B0C. Circular No. 65 9^ RUSSIAN-ENGLISH GLOSSARY OF NAMES OF AQUATIC ORGANISMS AND OTHER BIOLOGICAL AND RELATED TERMS ^5, Compiled by W. E. Ricker Fisheries Research Board of Canada Nanaimo, B.C. August, 1962 FOREWORD This short Russian-English glossary is meant to be of assistance in translating scientific articles in the fields of aquatic biology and the study of fishes and fisheries. j^ Definitions have been obtained from a variety of sources. For the names of fishes, the text volume of "Commercial Fishes of the USSR" provided English equivalents of many Russian names. Others were found in Berg's "Freshwater Fishes", and in works by Nikolsky (1954), Galkin (1958), Borisov and Ovsiannikov (1958), Martinsen (1959), and others. The kinds of fishes most emphasized are the larger species, especially those which are of importance as food fishes in the USSR, hence likely to be encountered in routine translating. However, names of a number of important commercial species in other parts of the world have been taken from Martinsen's list. For species for which no recognized English name was discovered, I have usually given either a transliteration or a translation of the Russian name; these are put in quotation marks to distinguish them from recognized English names.

  • A Review of the Biology, Fisheries and Conservation of the Whale Shark
    Journal of Fish Biology (2012) 80,1019–1056 doi:10.1111/j.1095-8649.2012.03252.x, available online at wileyonlinelibrary.com A review of the biology, fisheries and conservation of the whale shark Rhincodon typus D. Rowat*† and K. S. Brooks*‡ *Marine Conservation Society Seychelles, P. O. Box 1299, Victoria, Mahe, Seychelles and ‡Environment Department, University of York, Heslington, York, YO10 5DD, U.K. Although the whale shark Rhincodon typus is the largest extant fish, it was not described until 1828 and by 1986 there were only 320 records of this species. Since then, growth in tourism and marine recreation globally has lead to a significant increase in the number of sightings and several areas with annual occurrences have been identified, spurring a surge of research on the species. Simultane- ously, there was a great expansion in targeted R. typus fisheries to supply the Asian restaurant trade, as well as a largely un-quantified by-catch of the species in purse-seine tuna fisheries. Currently R. typus is listed by the IUCN as vulnerable, due mainly to the effects of targeted fishing in two areas. Photo-identification has shown that R. typus form seasonal size and sex segregated feeding aggregations and that a large proportion of fish in these aggregations are philopatric in the broadest sense, tending to return to, or remain near, a particular site. Somewhat conversely, satellite tracking studies have shown that fish from these aggregations can migrate at ocean-basin scales and genetic studies have, to date, found little graphic differentiation globally. Conservation approaches are now informed by observational and environmental studies that have provided insight into the feeding habits of the species and its preferred habitats.

The present study wasaimedat Seafood determining the occurrence of zoonotic nematodes in commonly consumed fish in New South Wales, Australia's most Zoonotic nematodes populous state. Three species of fish, including the Australian pilchard, Australian anchovy, and eastern school whiting, Anisakidae were purchased from a fish market and examined for the presence of nematode parasites. All Australian pilchards Raphidascarididae examined in this study were infected (100%; n = 19), followed by the eastern school whiting (70%; n = 20) and Australia Australian anchovy (56%; n = 70). Nematodes were in the larval stage and, therefore, classified by morphotype, followed by specific identification through sequencing of their internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. Seven different larval types with zoonotic potential, belonging to the families Anisakidae (Contracaecum type II and Terranova type II) and Raphidascarididae (Hysterothylacium types IV [genotypes A and B], VIII, XIV and a novel Hysterothylacium larval type, herein assigned as type XVIII), were found.
