  • The Feeding Ecology of Grey Gurnard, Eutrigla Gurnardus, Off the Coast of Scotland
    The Feeding Ecology of Grey Gurnard, Eutrigla gurnardus, off the coast of Scotland. Abstract Until recently, little research had been conducted into the feeding ecology of grey gurnard (Eutrigla gurnardus), and the species’ wider interaction with the ecosystems it inhabits. This study was carried out to address several questions that have recently arisen about the species. Mainly whether the grey gurnard population at Rockall Bank have been predating on the juvenile haddock to a degree that could cause the stock to decline. This was assessed by conducting a stomach contents analysis on a sample of grey gurnard caught on several trawls. The results of this were inconclusive, with only 3 stomachs containing potential haddock remains out of a total of 121 stomachs. However, these results do not completely disprove the hypothesis, as other factors may have influenced the low fish intake in these gurnard. Furthermore, the populations of grey gurnard from Rockall Bank and the Firth of Forth were compared to determine any differences in feeding ecology between the two. It emerged that the two populations were reasonably similar, with smaller size classes consuming less fish and proportionally more invertebrates, while larger size classes had a diet that was predominantly fish, with the fish prey consisting largely of sand eels. Finally, the influence of fish size on prey selection was investigated, with the result showing a clear correlation between increasing fish size and increasing prey mass, likely owing to the greater amount of fish prey that makes up a larger gurnard’s diet. Introduction: Grey gurnard, Eutrigla gurnadus, is a demersal marine species that has a wide distribution throughout the North Atlantic and the North Sea (Vinogradov et al., 2014; Floeter et al., 2005).

  • Red Gurnard in the North East Atlantic, Demersal Otter Trawl
    Red gurnard in the North East Atlantic, Demersal otter trawl Red gurnard in the North East Atlantic, Demersal otter trawl Content last updated 27th Jan 2016 Stock: Red gurnard in the North East Atlantic Management: EU Overview Red gurnard (Chelidonichthys cuculus) is a widespread demersal species on the Northeast Atlantic shelf, distributed from South Norway and north of the British Isles to Mauritania. The species is found in depths between 20 and 250m living on gravel or coarse sandy substrate. Higher occurrences of red gurnard with patchy distribution have been observed along the Western approaches from the Shetlands Islands to the Celtic Seas and the Channel. A continuous distribution of fish crossing the Channel and the area West of Brittany does not suggest a separation of the Divisions VIId from VIIe and VIIh. Therefore a split of the population between the Ecoregions does not seem appropriate. Further investigations are needed to progress on stocks boundaries such as morphometric studies, tagging and genetic population studies. Red gurnard feeds on a variety of small invertebrates, bottom dwelling fish and benthic shellfish and crustaceans. Length at first maturity has been reported at approximately 25cm. Spawning occurs between February and June. Currently, all red gurnards in the Northeast Atlantic are treated as a single stock. Considering their behaviour, future assessment and management should identify and treat separate spawning aggregations independently. Red gurnard is mainly taken as a bycatch in mixed demersal fisheries for flatfish and roundfish, as the market is limited a larger part of the gurnard catch is discarded. Gurnards have been landed as a mixed generic gurnard catch and therefore landings of red gurnard are uncertain.

The study is based on a benthic survey carried out in spring 2007, a few months after completion of the wind farm. During this survey the benthic fauna was sampled within the wind farm itself and in 6 reference areas lying north and south of it. Sampling took place mainly with a boxcorer, but there was also a limited programme with a Triple‐D dredge. The occurrence of possible effects was analyzed by comparing characteristics of the macrobenthos within the wind farm with those in the reference areas. A quantitative comparison of these characteristics with those observed during a baseline survey carried out 4 years before was hampered by a difference in sampling design and methodological differences. The conclusions of this study can be summarized as follows: 1. Based on the Bray‐Curtis index for percentage similarity there appeared to be great to very great similarity in the fauna composition of OWEZ and the majority of the reference areas.

  • Morphological Variations of the Shell of the Bivalve Lucina Pectinata
    I S S N 2 3 47-6 8 9 3 Volume 10 Number2 Journal of Advances in Biology Morphological variations of the shell of the bivalve Lucina pectinata (Gmelin, 1791) Emma MODESTIN PhD of Biogeography, zoology and Ecology University of the French Antilles, UMR AREA DEV ABSTRACT In Martinique, the species Lucina pectinata (Gmelin, 1791) is called "mud clam, white clam or mangrove clam" by bivalve fishermen depending on the harvesting environment. Indeed, the individuals collected have differences as regards the shape and colour of the shell. The hypothesis is that the shape of the shell of L. pectinata (P. pectinatus) shows significant variations from one population to another. This paper intends to verify this hypothesis by means of a simple morphometric study. The comparison of the shape of the shell of individuals from different populations was done based on samples taken at four different sites. The standard measurements (length (L), width or thickness (E - épaisseur) and height (H)) were taken and the morphometric indices (L/H; L/E; E/H) were established. These indices of shape differ significantly among the various populations. This intraspecific polymorphism of the shape of the shell of P. pectinatus could be related to the nature of the sediment (granulometry, density, hardness) and/or the predation. The shells are significantly more elongated in a loose muddy sediment than in a hard muddy sediment or one rich in clay. They are significantly more convex in brackish environments and this is probably due to the presence of more specialised predators or of more muddy sediments. Keywords Lucina pectinata, bivalve, polymorphism of shape of shell, ecology, mangrove swamp, French Antilles.

Piscat. 46 (4): 287–291. Background. The study is a contribution to Project CELFISH which involves genetic identifi cation of populations of fi sh species presenting a particular economic importance or having a potential to be used in the so-called commercial substitutions. The EU fi sh trade has been showing a distinct trend of more and more fi sh species previously unknown to consumers being placed on the market. Molecular assays have become the only way with which to verify the reliability of exporters. This paper is aimed at pinpointing genetic markers with which to label and differentiate between two populations of splendid alfonsino, Beryx splendens Lowe, 1834, a species highly attractive to consumers in Asia and Oceania due to the meat taste and low fat content. Material and methods. DNA was isolated from fragments of fi ns collected at local markets in Japan (MJ) (n = 10) and New Zealand (MNZ) (n = 18). The rhodopsin gene (RH1) fragment and 16 microsatellite DNA fragments (SSR) were analysed in all the individuals.

This represents a new host record for N. phaioplueura and its fourth record from the Seto Inland Sea and adjacent region. Key words: Cymothoidae, fish parasite, Isopoda, Nerocila phaiopleura, new host record, Scomber japonicus INTRODUCTION The Hōyo Strait is located between the western Seto Inland Sea and the Bungo Channell in western Japan. This strait is famous as a fishing ground of two perciform fishes of high quality, viz., chub mackerel, Scomber japonicus Houttuyn, 1782 (Scombridae), and Japanese jack mackerel, Trachurus japonicus (Temminck and Schlegel, 1844) (Carangidae), both of which are currently called“ Seki-saba” and“ Seki-aji”, respectively, as registered brands (e.g., Ishida and Fukushige, 2010). The brand names are well known nationwide, and the price of the fishes is very high (up to 5,000 yen per kg). Under these situations, the fishermen working in the strait pay much attention to the parasites of the fishes they catch because those fishes are almost exclusively eaten raw as“ sashimi.” Recently, a chub mackerel infected by a large parasite on the body surface (Fig.

  • Does Climate Change Bolster the Case for Fishery Reform in Asia? Christopher Costello∗
    Does Climate Change Bolster the Case for Fishery Reform in Asia? Christopher Costello∗ I examine the estimated economic, ecological, and food security effects of future fishery management reform in Asia. Without climate change, most Asian fisheries stand to gain substantially from reforms. Optimizing fishery management could increase catch by 24% and profit by 34% over business- as-usual management. These benefits arise from fishing some stocks more conservatively and others more aggressively. Although climate change is expected to reduce carrying capacity in 55% of Asian fisheries, I find that under climate change large benefits from fishery management reform are maintained, though these benefits are heterogeneous. The case for reform remains strong for both catch and profit, though these numbers are slightly lower than in the no-climate change case. These results suggest that, to maximize economic output and food security, Asian fisheries will benefit substantially from the transition to catch shares or other economically rational fishery management institutions, despite the looming effects of climate change. Keywords: Asia, climate change, fisheries, rights-based management JEL codes: Q22, Q28 I. Introduction Global fisheries have diverged sharply over recent decades. High governance, wealthy economies have largely adopted output controls or various forms of catch shares, which has helped fisheries in these economies overcome inefficiencies arising from overfishing (Worm et al. 2009) and capital stuffing (Homans and Wilen 1997), and allowed them to turn the corner toward sustainability (Costello, Gaines, and Lynham 2008) and profitability (Costello et al. 2016). But the world’s largest fishing region, Asia, has instead largely pursued open access and input controls, achieving less long-run fishery management success (World Bank 2017).
