In sixteen early medieval settlement layers of the Wolin-Town, which correspond chronologically to the period from 7th to mid 13th century, the occurrence of 16 463 bone remains of fishes was stated, of which 9 799 pieces were identified anatomically and their specific affiliation was determined. These bones as well as scales found in the excavation belonged to 27 fish species. Amongst them were 13...
Mycoflora developing on some fish species, recently introduced to Polish waters, has not been known. The authors incubated muscles of four fish species (monkey goby, Neogobius fluviatilis; racer goby, N. gymnotrachelus; Chinese sleeper, Perccottus glenii; and stone moroko, Pseudorasbora parva caught in the drainage area of the Bug River) in water taken from 6 different places. A total of 59 fungus...
Background. Fishes of the family Gobiidae may be definitive-, intermediate-, or paratenic hosts of parasites with mature stages infecting a variety of vertebrates, including humans. This group of fishes constitutes a convenient ecological model for studying the processes of colonisation by parasites. Learning these processes may contribute to a better, more complex, understanding of organismal interrelationships...
In 2008, a specimen of a pignosed arrowtooth eel, Dysomma brevirostre (Facciolà, 1887), was caught by a bottom trawling operation at Sigacik Bay (Aegean Sea), Turkey. Total length (TL) and weight of the fish were 23.2 cm and 2.00 g, respectively. This study reports the first record of D. brevirostre from the Aegean Sea and logs a new species for the Turkish Ichthyofauna.
The lesser amberjack, Seriola fasciata, was recorded for the first time in the Levant. This species was known hitherto from the Atlantic Ocean and western and central Mediterranean and southeastern Aegean Sea.
The first record of imperial blackfish, Schedophilus ovalis (Cuvier, 1833), in the Greek waters of the Aegean Sea is herewith documented. This record increases the knowledge on the richness of the Hellenic marine ichthyofauna and may suggest an expansion of the geographical distribution of the species from the southern Levantine waters to northern areas.
The burrowing goby, Trypauchen vagina, is recorded for the first time in the Mediterranean. It is believed that it reached the Mediterranean from the Red Sea, despite the lack of a record from there, due to its well documented presence in the Arabian Gulf.
Background. Thirty species were previously recorded for unstructured habitats (unvegetated soft substrates: USS) in Pantanos de Centla. However, a lack of information on the tropical ichthyofauna of the structured habitats such as marginal vegetation (MV), submerged macrophytes (SM) and coarse woody debris (CWD) emphasizes the importance of the aim of this paper that is the updating the records of...
Background. Despite the importance of Lake Tanganyika’s biodiversity for science and the livelihoods of the riparian people, high-resolution surveys of the fish biodiversity are sparse and fragmentary, especially along the western (Congolese) shoreline. The coast suffers locally from intensive human activities and lacks adequate protective measures or nature reserves. However, in view of the intra-lacustrine...
