Connectivity and movements of juvenile predatory fishes between discrete restored estuaries in southern California
Establishing connectivity via fish movements among restored estuaries is important for maintaining community structure, but data on the degree to which animals efficiently move among estuaries are limited. To test estuarine connectivity potential, we translocated 5 species of juvenile predatory fishes between 2 discrete estuaries approximately 10 km apart, and using passive acoustic telemetry, ...
متن کاملPrey growth and size-dependent predation in juvenile estuarine fishes: experimental and model analyses.
The outcome of predation interactions between growing, size-structured predator and prey cohorts is difficult to predict. We manipulated the food resources available to juvenile spot subject to predation from southern flounder in a 60-day replicated pond experiment to test the hypothesis that spot growing slowly would experience higher predation mortality and stronger selection against small in...
متن کاملPredator-prey relationships in a two-species toxicity test system.
In a two-species toxicity test system survival and reproduction of both the predator Hypoaspis aculeifer (Gamasida) and the prey Folsomia fimetaria (Collembola) were studied after 21 days of residual exposure to a soil contamination of the insecticide dimethoate. Additional experiments were run to analyze which species-species and compound-species relationships determine the outcome of this two...
متن کاملEvolutionary relationships of sibling tapeworm species (Cestoda) parasitizing teleost fishes.
DNA/DNA hybridization and sequencing of rDNA (partial 18S rDNA and ITS1) were used to investigate phylogenetic relationships among seven host-specific Bothriocephalus parasites (Cestoda, Pseudophyllidae). The small nucleotide divergence between six of the seven bothriocephalids suggests that isolation and differentiation of Bothriocephalus lineages in the different host species probably occurre...
متن کاملConnectivity in the life histories of fishes that use estuaries
Historically, coastal fisheries biology has focused on the theme of estuarine dependency with emphasis on microhabitat use. Ironically, however, few fishes that we associate with estuaries are in fact obligatory users. What then are the causes and consequences of estuarine habitat use? At the Estuarine Research Federation 2003 Seattle Meeting, we explored ‘‘connectivity’’ in the life cycles of ...
