Human influence in coastal areas exposes these ecosystems to continuous internal and external disturbance. Nitrogen-loads can affect the composition of the resident community and the trophic relationships between and within species, including fish. Based on carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) stable isotope analyses of individuals, we explored the feeding behaviour of two ecologically and economically important omnivorous fish, the eel Anguilla anguilla and the seabream Diplodus annularis, in three neighbouring lakes characterised by different trophic conditions. We found that A. anguilla showed greater generalism in the eutrophic lake due to the increased contribution of basal resources and invertebrates to its diet. By contrast, the diet of D. annularis, which was mainly based on invertebrate species, became more specialised, focusing especially on polychaetes.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

Abstract The otoliths described in this study from the Late Eocene to Early Oligocene (biozone P18) of the Kishima Formation near Karatsu, Saga Prefecture, represent the earliest record of fossil otoliths from Japan and in fact the entire Northwest Pacific. They were obtained from outcrops along the Shimohirano River. A total of 13 otolith-based teleost taxa are recognized, 11 of which being identifiable to species level and new to science and five new genera. The new otolith-based genera are: Nishiberyx n. gen. (Berycidae), Sagaberyx n. gen. (Berycoidei family indet.), Namicauda n. gen. (Polymixiidae), Ortugobius n. gen. (tentatively placed in Gobiidae) and Cornusolea n. gen. (Soleidae); the new species are: Rhynchoconger placidus n. sp., Rhynchoconger subtilis n. sp., Saurida macilenta n. sp., Nishiberyx nishimotoi n. sp., Sagaberyx kishimaensis n. sp., Namicauda pulvinata n. sp., Liza brevirostris n. sp., Pontinus? karasawai n. sp., Ortugo- bius cascus n.

Despite the recognized importance of these habitats, they have been scantly studied and their distribution is mostly unknown. This study reports the new finding of E. verrucosa forests in the Mediterranean Sea, and the updated distribution of this species that has been considered rare in the basin. In particular, one site off Sanremo (Ligurian Sea) was characterized by a monospecific population of E. verrucosa with 2.3 0.2 colonies m 2. By combining ± − new records, literature, and citizen science data, the species is believed to be widespread in the basin with few or isolated colonies, and 19 E. verrucosa forests were identified. The overall associated community showed how these coral forests are essential for species of conservation interest, as well as for species of high commercial value. For this reason, proper protection and management strategies are necessary. Keywords: Anthozoa; Alcyonacea; gorgonian; coral habitat; coral forest; VME; biodiversity; mesophotic; citizen science; distribution 1. Introduction Arborescent corals such as antipatharians and alcyonaceans can form mono- or multispecific animal forests that represent vulnerable marine ecosystems of great ecological importance [1–4].
