R&D TECHNICAL REPORT W1-014/TR i PREFACE This review is for those who have and will work on Alosa, to the commercial fisherman and recreational anglers who make their living or obtain pleasure and relaxation from their capture. It is also for the many people we have worked with us over the years, without whose help little would have been achieved and to the many who have freely contributed information and knowledge in the true spirit of collaboration, we hope we have not abused their generosity. We acknowledge that there still exists mistakes in this draft, especially in the references. We have supplied as much detail as we can but appreciate that in many instances it is incomplete. For this and other errors we apologise, we will, however, endeavour to correct these over time and maintain the review up to date and to help us achieve this we welcome any feedback. In the future we hope the review will be made available on the Internet. R&D TECHNICAL REPORT W1-014/TR ii R&D TECHNICAL REPORT W1-014/TR iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We thank B. Steinmetz who as a Convenor of EIFAC sub-commission 1 “Biology and Management” first suggested putting together a synopsis of biological data on Alosa during a fleeting meeting at a conference in Hull (UK) over ten years ago! We also thank subsequent convenors, C. Moriarty and T. Brenner for the annual request on progress and to whom the many excuses for the lack of any development must have seemed insufferable. We also thank those who have helped us with obtaining references, translations and with the many aspects of IT, which have made this task considerably easier; We thank P. Bianco, P. Bergot, P.

  • ORIGINAL ARTICLES Length-Weight Relationship and Condition Factor
    49 Research Journal of Fisheries and Hydrobiology, 6(2): 49-53, 2011 ISSN 1816-9112 ORIGINAL ARTICLES Length-Weight Relationship and Condition Factor of Pontic Shad, Alosa immaculata (Pisces: Clupeidae) From the Southern Black Sea Savaş Yılmaz, Nazmi Polat Department of Biology, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Ondokuz Mayıs University, 55139, Kurupelit, Samsun, Turkey ABSTRACT Seasonal variations in the length-weight relationship and condition factor of pontic shad, Alosa immaculata Bennett, 1835 collected from the Turkish Black Sea coast were investigated. A total of 730 individuals, 438 female and 292 male, were caught between December 2004 and October 2005. The length-weight relationships of females and males did not differ statistically in the same season. However, the length-weight relationships of sexes were seen to vary depending on the seasons. The parameter b of length-weight relationship was determined as 3.303 in females and 3.249 in males. The condition factor ranged from 0.550 to 1.064 for females, with a mean value of 0.794 and from 0.557 to 1.047 for males, with a mean value of 0.761. The highest condition factor in both sexes was obtained in spring. The average condition factor of female and male individuals >21 cm total length displayed an upward trend. Key words: Length-weight relationship, condition factor, pontic shad, Alosa immaculata, Black Sea Introductıon The length-weight relationship (LWR) in fish is significantly important in terms of fishery ecology and stock management. The LWRs allow determining the average weight of the fish in a certain class of length (Beyer, J.E., 1987), estimating the productivity and biomass of a fish population (Hossain, M.Y, 2006) determining the condition factor of fish (Bolger, T 1989) making a morphological comparison between species and populations (King, R.P., 1996; Goncalves, J.M.S, 1997).

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.

In Romania, shad fishery has a market Avalue of about 1.5 million euro, with average annual catches of 200-500 tonnes. Biological material was collected during research surveys organized along the Black Sea coast, in 2012-2013, in spring season (March, April), summer (June, July) and autumn (September). Experimental fishing was done with fishing gillnets. Demographic structure of Alosa immaculata consists of generations of 2-5 years, dominated by generations of 3 to 4 years. The aim of this paper is to provide recent data regarding Alosa immaculata population along the Black Sea Coast consideribg that its biology is less known. Keywords: Danube shad, experimental fishing, Alosa immaculata, Black Sea. INTRODUCTION Genus Alosa is represented by several species, the most important being distributed in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, Black Sea and Caspian Sea.

  • Biodiversity of Arctic Marine Fishes: Taxonomy and Zoogeography

Mecklenburg & Peter Rask Møller & Dirk Steinke Received: 3 June 2010 /Revised: 23 September 2010 /Accepted: 1 November 2010 # Senckenberg, Gesellschaft für Naturforschung and Springer 2010 Abstract Taxonomic and distributional information on each Six families in Cottoidei with 72 species and five in fish species found in arctic marine waters is reviewed, and a Zoarcoidei with 55 species account for more than half list of families and species with commentary on distributional (52.5%) the species. This study produced CO1 sequences for records is presented. The list incorporates results from 106 of the 242 species. Sequence variability in the barcode examination of museum collections of arctic marine fishes region permits discrimination of all species. The average dating back to the 1830s. It also incorporates results from sequence variation within species was 0.3% (range 0–3.5%), DNA barcoding, used to complement morphological charac- while the average genetic distance between congeners was ters in evaluating problematic taxa and to assist in identifica- 4.7% (range 3.7–13.3%). The CO1 sequences support tion of specimens collected in recent expeditions. Barcoding taxonomic separation of some species, such as Osmerus results are depicted in a neighbor-joining tree of 880 CO1 dentex and O. mordax and Liparis bathyarcticus and L.
