The main objective of this study was to collect new data on the occurrence, levels of priority and emerging organic compounds in freshwater fish sampled in the Rhone River. The 34 studied contaminants included alkylphenols, bisphenol A, polybromodiphenylethers (PBDE), perfluorinated compounds, hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCD), hexachlorobenzene and hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD). About 50 fish sample...

The distribution and reproductive success of fish were examined in Dutch soft waters of varying pH. In total, 20 fish species were encoun­ tered. The lowest pH-values at which fish species were observed varied remarkably. Umbra pygmaea and Tinea tinea appeared to be extremely acid tolerant and occurred in waters with pH-values below 4.0. Abramis brarna, Cyprinus carpio, E’sox iucius, Misgumus f...

  The aim of the present study was to report Philometra rischta from Blicca bjoerkna from the Caspian Sea. During this study, from August (2008) to April (2009), 78 fish specimens were collected and transferred to the aquatic research laboratory of Shahid Beheshti University and were examined for parasitic infection. Parasites were fixed in formalin (10%). The parasites were indentified accordi...

The ichthyological biodiversity of Polish lakes is poorly understood, even in not used for fishing and those under strict protection. With this mind, the aim study was to conduct a comprehensive survey several Wolin National Park (Poland). conducted Domysławskie Gardno anthropogenic Stara Kredownia reservoir. Each exercise using benthic nets over 12 h period. fish caught were measured weighed, ...

Fish-habitat associations are poorly known in offshore areas of very large rivers. We examined physical habitat structure and its effect on use assemblage formation benthic fishes the main channel Danube River, Hungary. Principal component analysis variables showed that sample unit (i.e., 500 m long reaches) cross-channel transect-level data corresponding reaches were highly correlated. found c...
