Chub (Leuciscus cephalus): a new potentially invasive fish species in Ireland
The chub is a freshwater fish of the family Cyprinidae, which is widely distributed throughout Europe. Prior to 2001 there were no reports of chub being present in Ireland. In 2001 and again in 2004 it was reported that an angler had caught chub in a section of the River Inny. On neither occasion were live specimens retained for authentication. In 2005 a number of live, angler-caught chub from ...
متن کاملMetal Concentrations in Chub, Leuciscus Cephalus, from a Submontane River
In many aquatic environments elevated levels of trace elements occur due to anthropogenic activities. Water organisms can be precise indicators in estimating the status of pollution of water environments. Among them several species of fish have been widely used (Håkanson 1984, Chevreuil et al. 1995, Andres et al. 2000, Falandysz et al. 2000, Perkowska and Protasowicki 2000, Řehulka 2001, Wagner...
متن کاملGonadogenesis in chub Squalius (Leuciscus) cephalus (L. 1758).
The chub is an opportunistic, rheophilic cyprinid species and popular gamefish distributed throughout almost all of Europe, South Caucasus and part of Anatolia. It is most abundant in small rivers and large streams. The process of anatomical and cytological differentiation was analyzed in chub gonads. Material used in the study was derived from artificial spawning of adult individuals caught in...
متن کاملProposed standard mass equations for European chub Leuciscus cephalus in Italy.
Total length (L(T)) and mass measurements of 28,596 specimens of European chub Leuciscus cephalus, collected from a variety of waterways across Italy, were used to compute standard mass (W(s)) equations by both empirical percentile (EmP) and regression line percentile (RLP) methods. The use of the EmP W(s) equation [log(10) W(s) = -4·79 + 2·68log(10) L(T) + 0·10(log(10) L(T))(2)] to compute rel...
متن کاملConcentration of heavy metals in water and chub, Leuciscus cephalus (Linn.) from the river Yildiz, Turkey.
The concentration of heavy metals (Cu, Fe and Zn) were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in the river water and the edible muscle tissues of chub, Leuciscus cephalus, from river Yildiz, Turkey, and in the waste water The following results were found in the water of the river Yildiz: Cu 0.03-0.53, Fe 0.91-1.96 and Zn, 053-1.49 microgl(-1), in the waste water Cu 0.20-0.52, Fe 1.22...
