However, little information exists on meat characteristics for these fish. The aim of this study was to evaluate meat traits of tambaqui, pacu, and the patinga hybrid produced in ponds in a semi-intensive system. Filets with respective average weights of 1,270.00 ± 0.28, 670.00 ± 0.10, and 750.00 ± 0.06 g were examined to determine cooking loss (CL), shear force (SF), color (L* = lightness, a* = red intensity, b* = yellow intensity), and pH. In the statistical analysis, a model was adopted including the effects of genetic group as the source of variation and slaughter weight as a covariable, except for the variables CL (%) and b* color intensity, for which slaughter weight was not used as a covariable. Data were subjected to analysis of variance followed by Student’s T test (P<0.05) for a comparison of means. Only the variables CL and SF did not show significant differences (P>0.05). Genetic group tambaqui showed higher pH (6.02), a* color intensity (3.40), and b* color intensity (6.78) than pacu (pH: 5.92; a*: 0.22; b*: 3.69) and patinga (pH: 5.88; a*: 0.73; b*: 3.25). Lightness was higher (P<0.05) for pacu (56.14) than patinga (52.59) and tambaqui (50.06). Similar traits were found across the genetic groups, but the meat of pacu and patinga is lighter in color than that of tambaqui.

We registered the reports of the participants using semi-structured interviews while they were working at the markets or when they were in the water to interact with river dolphins. We registered dolphins and human behavior using the ad libitum method. Most of the children interacting with botos were boys - we observed only two girls swimming with the dolphins.

ABSTRACT - The experiment was performed with 160 tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) with average weight 11.01±2.08 g and total length 7.8±0.18 cm. Fishes were kept in sixteen aquariums with 56 L of water at 29.1±0.4 oC of temperature, initial stocking density 1.97 g/L and constant aeration. The objective of this study was to assess the influence of photoperiod on fish performance. Treatments consisted of four photoperiods: T1 = 6 hours; T2 = 12 hours; T3 = 18 hours and T4 = 24 hours, with four replicates each. Fishes were fed twice a day with commercial extruded feed (28% of crude protein). The experiment was developed in closed circulation system, with volume of water renewal for each experimental unit equivalent to 40 times daily. Fish biometry was performed at the beginning of the experiment and at every 16 days, in order to follow the effects of treatments on juvenile development. Final weight, total length, standard length, height, feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion, survival, specific growth rate, protein efficiency rate and protein retention efficiency were assessed.

  • Diet Shift of Red Belly Pacu Piaractus Brachypomus (Cuvier, 1818) (Characiformes: Serrasalmidae), a Neotropical Fish, in the Sepik-Ramu River Basin, Papua New Guinea
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 12(4): 827-833, 2014 Copyright © 2014 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20130212 Diet shift of Red Belly Pacu Piaractus brachypomus (Cuvier, 1818) (Characiformes: Serrasalmidae), a Neotropical fish, in the Sepik-Ramu River Basin, Papua New Guinea Sandra Bibiana Correa1, Ricardo Betancur-R.2, 3, Bernard de Mérona4 and Jonathan W. Armbruster2 Introduction of fish species is a globally widespread practice that causes losses of native species and homogenization of diversity within and across continents. Diet assessments are important tools to depict the ecological function of species introduced into novel ecosystem and possible direct and indirect ecological effects. In this study, we compare the diet of Piaractus brachypomus, a mainly frugivorous Neotropical fish, introduced into the Sepik-Ramu River Basin (Papua New Guinea) nearly two decades ago, to that of similar size individuals from Neotropical populations in the Amazon and Orinoco River basins (South America). In contrast to native populations that feed mainly on terrestrial plants and invertebrates, the diet of introduced P. brachypomus is mainly composed of fish remains and aquatic plants, while terrestrial plants are frequently consumed but in relatively smaller amounts. These findings show that P. brachypomus has an inherently plastic diet that can be adjusted when displaced to a novel geographic area. While trophic plasticity increases the likelihood of a species to establish breeding populations after its introduction, it also reduces our ability to predict negative effects on native species. La introducción de peces es una práctica que se extiende globalmente y que causa perdida de especies nativas y homogenización de la diversidad dentro y entre continentes.

  • An Assessment of Exotic Species in the Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve
    AN ASSESSMENT OF EXOTIC SPECIES IN THE TONLE SAP BIOSPHERE RESERVE AND ASSOCIATED THREATS TO BIODIVERSITY A RESOURCE DOCUMENT FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF INVASIVE ALIEN SPECIES December 2006 Robert van Zalinge (compiler) This publication is a technical output of the UNDP/GEF-funded Tonle Sap Conservation Project Executive Summary Introduction This report is mainly a literature review. It attempts to put together all the available information from recent biological surveys, and environmental and resource use studies in the Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve (TSBR) in order to assess the status of exotic species and report any information on their abundance, distribution and impact. For those exotic species found in the TSBR, it is examined whether they can be termed as being an invasive alien species (IAS). IAS are exotic species that pose a threat to native ecosystems, economies and/or human health. It is widely believed that IAS are the second most significant threat to biodiversity worldwide, following habitat destruction. In recognition of the threat posed by IAS the Convention on Biological Diversity puts forward the following strategy to all parties in Article 8h: “each contracting party shall as far as possible and as appropriate: prevent the introduction of, control, or eradicate those alien species which threaten ecosystems, habitats or species”. The National Assembly of Cambodia ratified the Convention on Biological Diversity in 1995. After reviewing the status of exotic species in the Tonle Sap from the literature, as well as the results from a survey based on questionnaires distributed among local communities, the main issues are discussed, possible strategies to combat the spread of alien species that are potentially invasive are examined, and recommendations are made to facilitate the implementation of a strategy towards reducing the impact of these species on the TSBR ecosystem.
