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.

  • Marine Fishes of the Azores: an Annotated Checklist and Bibliography
    MARINE FISHES OF THE AZORES: AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST AND BIBLIOGRAPHY. RICARDO SERRÃO SANTOS, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS SANTOS, RICARDO SERRÃO, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS 1997. Marine fishes of the Azores: An annotated checklist and bibliography. Arquipélago. Life and Marine Sciences Supplement 1: xxiii + 242pp. Ponta Delgada. ISSN 0873-4704. ISBN 972-9340-92-7. A list of the marine fishes of the Azores is presented. The list is based on a review of the literature combined with an examination of selected specimens available from collections of Azorean fishes deposited in museums, including the collection of fish at the Department of Oceanography and Fisheries of the University of the Azores (Horta). Personal information collected over several years is also incorporated. The geographic area considered is the Economic Exclusive Zone of the Azores. The list is organised in Classes, Orders and Families according to Nelson (1994). The scientific names are, for the most part, those used in Fishes of the North-eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean (FNAM) (Whitehead et al. 1989), and they are organised in alphabetical order within the families. Clofnam numbers (see Hureau & Monod 1979) are included for reference. Information is given if the species is not cited for the Azores in FNAM. Whenever available, vernacular names are presented, both in Portuguese (Azorean names) and in English. Synonyms, misspellings and misidentifications found in the literature in reference to the occurrence of species in the Azores are also quoted. The 460 species listed, belong to 142 families; 12 species are cited for the first time for the Azores.

SUMMARY: The sagittal otolith of 348 species, belonging to 99 families and 22 orders of marine Teleostean fishes from the north and central eastern Atlantic and western Mediterranean were described using morphological and morphometric characters. The morphological descriptions were based on the otolith shape, outline and sulcus acusticus features. The mor- phometric parameters determined were otolith length (OL, mm), height (OH, mm), perimeter (P; mm) and area (A; mm2) and were expressed in terms of shape indices as circularity (P2/A), rectangularity (A/(OL×OH)), aspect ratio (OH/OL; %) and OL/fish size. The present Atlas provides information that complements the characterization of some ichthyologic taxa. In addition, it constitutes an important instrument for species identification using sagittal otoliths collected in fossiliferous layers, in archaeological sites or in feeding remains of bony fish predators. Keywords: otolith, sagitta, morphology, morphometry, western Mediterranean, north eastern Atlantic, central eastern Atlantic. RESUMEN: Otolitos de peces del mediterráneo occidental y del atlántico central y nororiental.

COHEN SYNOPSIS: A systematic revision of the Argentininae divides the subfamily into two genera, Argentina with seven species and subspecies and Glossanodon with five species. Comments are given on habits and distribution, and brief dis- cussions of the swimbladder and the spiral valve are included. The following new taxa are presented: Prosoarchus, new subgenus; Glossanodon (Glossanodon) polli, new species; Glossanodon (Prosoarchus) pygmaeus, new species; Argentina elon- gata austrahae, new subspecies. INTRODUCTION The subfamily Argentininae as herein understood consists of argen- tinid fishes formerly referable to the genus Argentina. This subfamily is worldwide in distribution, and its members, as adults at least, are restricted to the edges and slopes of the continental shelf, in contra- distinction to the other fishes of the suborder Argentinoidei which are bathypelagic.

  • Deep-Ocean Climate Change Impacts on Habitat, Fish and Fisheries, by Lisa Levin, Maria Baker, and Anthony Thompson (Eds)
    ISSN 2070-7010 FAO 638 FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE TECHNICAL PAPER 638 Deep-ocean climate change impacts on habitat, fish and fisheries Deep-ocean climate change impacts on habitat, fish and fisheries This publication presents the outcome of a meeting between the FAO/UNEP ABNJ Deep-seas and Biodiversity project and the Deep Ocean Stewardship Initiative. It focuses on the impacts of climatic changes on demersal fisheries, and the interactions of these fisheries with other species and vulnerable marine ecosystems. Regional fisheries management organizations rely on scientific information to develop advice to managers. In recent decades, climate change has been a focus largely as a unidirectional forcing over decadal timescales. However, changes can occur abruptly when critical thresholds are crossed. Moreover, distribution changes are expected as populations shift from existing to new areas. Hence, there is a need for new monitoring programmes to help scientists understand how these changes affect productivity and biodiversity. costa = 9,4 mm ISBN 978-92-5-131126-4 ISSN 2070-7010 FA 9 789251 311264 CA2528EN/1/09.19 O Cover image: Time of emergence of seafloor climate changes.

However, the resources required to record individual body weights for benthic animals, where the number of individuals can reach several thousand in a square metre, are often prohibitive. Here we present morphometric (length-weight) relationships for 216 benthic species from the North Sea to permit weight estimation from length measurements. These relationships were calculated using data collected over two years from 283 stations.

They may be modified in the light of further knowledge gained in subsequent stages of the Project. The designations employed and the presentation of material in this publication do not imply the expression of any opinion on the part of FAO or donors concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area, or concerning the determination of its frontiers or boundaries. ii Preface The Project “Scientific and Institutional Cooperation to Support Responsible Fisheries in the Eastern Mediterranean- EastMed is executed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and funded by Greece, Italy and EC. The Eastern Mediterranean countries have for long lacked a cooperation framework as created for other areas of the Mediterranean, namely the FAO sub-regional projects AdriaMed, MedSudMed, CopeMed II and ArtFiMed. This fact leaded for some countries to be sidelined, where international and regional cooperation for fishery research and management is concerned.

  • Strømsild, Argentina Sphyraena
    Atlas over danske saltvandsfisk Strømsild Argentina sphyraena Linnaeus, 1758 Af Henrik Carl Strømsild på 18,3 cm fra den norske del af Nordsøen, maj 2018. © Henrik Carl. Projektet er finansieret af Aage V. Jensen Naturfond Alle rettigheder forbeholdes. Det er tilladt at gengive korte stykker af teksten med tydelig kilde- henvisning. Teksten bedes citeret således: Carl, H. 2019. Strømsild. I: Carl, H. & Møller, P.R. (red.). Atlas over danske saltvandsfisk. Statens Naturhistoriske Museum. Online-udgivelse, december 2019. Systematik og navngivning Slægten Argentina består af 13 arter, hvoraf de seks findes i Stillehavet og Det Indiske Ocean, og de resterende syv findes i Atlanterhavet. I Nordøstatlanten findes to arter, der begge er udbredt i vore farvande. Foruden strømsilden drejer det sig om guldlaksen (Argentina silus). Det officielle danske navn er strømsild (Carl et al. 2004). Det er et navn, der er blevet brugt herhjemme siden begyndelsen af 1900-tallet (Otterstrøm 1914), og det stammer fra Norge, hvor det er et gammelt lokalnavn. Fries et al. (1895) skriver, at navnet kommer af, at i det mindste de yngre fisk på visse årstider angiveligt kan trække ind i flodmundingerne. Der er dog ikke fundet konkrete oplysninger om indtræk i ferskvand. Det videnskabelige slægtsnavn Argentina kommer af det latinske ord argentus, der betyder sølv, og det var navnet på en dybhavsfisk i det gamle Rom. Artsnavnet sphyraena kommer af det antikke græske navn for barracuda (sphyraina) (Kullander & Delling 2012). Udseende og kendetegn Kroppen er langstrakt, lettere sammentrykt og med et nærmest rektangulært tværsnit. Hovedet er kort, og munden, som er lille, ender godt foran en lodret linje gennem øjets forkant.
