Introduced fishes into lowland rivers can result in invasive populations establishing and then dispersing, where knowledge of their life history traits contributes to understandings invasion ecology. Here, the age growth rates a translocated chub Squalius cephalus population were assessed River Frome, chalk-stream Southern England, was introduced approximately 15 years ago. The results relation...

The mullet species under the family Mugilidae, considered to be a commercially important teleost, are mostly found in coastal waters throughout world, distributed tropical, subtropical and temperate areas. In terms of taxonomic study, biogeography distribution pattern mullets remain unclear due difficulty separating based on morphological characters. Thus, there is need study taxonomy Mugilidae...

The feeding habits and effect of the diameter pelleted feeds on responses wild juvenile adult flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) in captivity were examined. Optimal pellet size for was defined according to behavioural ingestion pellets with different diameters (2, 4, 6, 8 mm) that dropped into tank a random sequence. Larger (6 more attractive (lower reaction time, high percentage capture), b...

The impact of anthropogenic activities on the accumulation heavy metals in water, sediment and fish both Ennore creek Vellar estuary were observed this study. Water sample collected from sampling stations was just only creek. Sediment samples subjected to a total digestion technique (HNO3 – HCl HF conc.) analysed using spectrophotometer. Four elements Cu, Cd, Zn Pb (trace elements) determined. ...
