The present study reports on the main parasites found in mullet (Mugil platanus) and their prevalence throughout the year on Uruguayan coasts of the River Plate. The following parasites were found: Ichthyobodo necator, Trichodina sp., Scyphidia sp, Gyrodactylus sp., Dactylogyrus sp., Metamicrocotyla sp., Dicrogaster sp., Phagicola sp. and “Scolex polymorphus”. The viability of mullet (Mugil pla...

− The application of fisheries acoustics in shallow waters opens new fields of observation and allows new methods for abundance estimates. In this paper we deal with echocounting of migrating fish crossing the Beaucaire-Vallabrègues lock, the first obstacle encountered on the Rhône, using a SIMRAD EY500 split-beam sounder, 70 kHz frequency. Two transducers sampled a section of water and evaluat...

Morphological information is given on the adults of 4 trematodes from Mugil cephalus from estuarine waters of the northern Gulf of Mexico with complementary information from specimens from Georgia. Lasiotocus glebulentus sp. n., from the Gulf, possesses a submedian genital pore and apparently differs from all known species by containing several large concretions in the excretory vesicle. Data a...

Ichthyozoonotic Mycobacterium spp. poses health risks both to fish and humans. In this study, the presence of ichthyozoonotic Mycobacterium spp. was investigated in red mullet (Mullus barbatus barbatus) and surmullet (Mullus surmuletus), widely caught species in the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea. A total of 208 fish samples, provided from fishermen of Mersin province (Turkey) were studied. U...

The schooling behaviour of fish is of great biological importance, playing a crucial role in the foraging and predator avoidance of numerous species. The extent to which physiological performance traits affect the spatial positioning of individual fish within schools is completely unknown. Schools of juvenile mullet Liza aurata were filmed at three swim speeds in a swim tunnel, with one focal f...

Lake Siombak is a tidal lake that an estuary around the covered with various mangrove trees. It interesting to study fish's spatial and temporal distribution as unique distinctive ecosystem. This research was conducted for year (from September 2018 August 2019). Fish sampling performed by installing gill nets (mesh size 1 inch) cast 0.5 inch). Gill were installed at high low tides during full m...

Mullet is the most massively harvested species, representing third of total freshwater fish landing in Tunisia. To ensure farming durability and development country, reservoirs have been stocked with Mugilidae fry which was collected from coastal estuaries areas after a short adaptation period. The objective this paper to compare contrast Chelon ramada’’s age, growth, mortality two Tunisian (Se...

Abstract. Bautista JA, Manubag JJ, Sumaya NH, Martinez JG, Tabugo SR. 2023. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding and fish visual census reveals the first record of Doboatherina magnidentatain Philippines. Biodiversitas 24: 3063-3072. Biodiversity monitoring is cornerstone for conserving marine species. However, classical methods, like Fish Visual Census (FVC), are often limited due to samplin...
