Larval ecology of the great barracuda, Sphyraena barracuda, and other sphyraenids in the Straits of Florida
The great barracuda (Sphyraena barracuda) is a widespread, ecologically and socioeconomically important coastal fish, yet very little is known about its larvae. We examined spawning and larval ecology of Western Atlantic sphyraenids using monthly ichthyoplankton samples collected over 2 years along a transect spanning the east–west axis of the Straits of Florida (SOF). Samples were dominated by...
متن کاملSelective mortality during the larval and juvenile stages of snappers (Lutjanidae) and great barracuda Sphyraena barracuda
Selective mortality during the early life stages in marine organisms can affect the magnitude and composition of recruitment, yet these processes have not been examined in economically important predatory coral reef fishes. Utilizing 3 different stage-specific sampling techniques (shipboard plankton tows, larval light traps, juvenile surveys/seines), we repeatedly sampled multiple cohorts of 3 ...
متن کاملSpatial ecology and residency patterns of adult great barracuda (Sphyraena barracuda) in coastal waters of The Bahamas
Great barracuda (Sphyraena barracuda) were implanted with acoustic telemetry transmitters (n = 42) and monitored within a stationary acoustic receiver array (n = 53 receivers) in The Bahamas to examine residency, seasonal movements, and habitat use. Barracuda were monitored for up to 980 days and remained within the array area »33% (median value) of the time. Most tagged barracuda were transien...
متن کاملStudies on Lipids of Barracuda, Sphyraena pinguis
(1) The characteristics of the lipids (acetone-soluble lipid, lecithin, cephalin and sphingolipid) obtained from barracuda, Sphyraena pinguis GUNTHER, were studied from the view point of fat metabolism of fish. (2) Forty-one fresh sample fish caught in the Komekami fishing ground near Odawara City (west part of Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan) on the 4th of October, 1959, were extracted with acetone...
