genetic diversity of six populations of bartail flathead (platycephalus indicus linnaeus, 1758) was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp). a total of 118 reproducible bands amplified with ten aflp primer combinations were obtained from 42 fishes that were collected from six different locations in the northern part of the persian gulf. the percentage of polymorphic ban...

The food habits of the flathead sole (Hippoglossoides elassodon) in the eastern Bering Sea were investigated. Our analysis of 4,406 flathead sole stomachs containing food showed that the diet was composed primarily of organisms living on the bottom (epibenthic) and pelagic organisms in close association with the bottom (nektobenthic). Feeding shifted from a crustacean-based diet to an ophiuroid...

this study was designed to evaluate population variation and differentiation of bartail flathead, platycephalusindicus (linnaeus, 1785)in the iranian waters of the persian gulf using the morphometric and meristic characters. a total of 180 fish were collected by gill net from six stations (khormosa, bahrekan, shif, motaf, charak and bandar abbas) of iranian coasts of persian gulf including 30 f...

The flathead catfish Pylodictis olivaris is a large piscivore that is native to the Mississippi and Rio Grande river drainages but that has been widely introduced across the United States. River ecologists and fisheries managers are concerned about introduced flathead catfish populations because of the negative impacts on native fish communities or imperiled species associated with direct preda...

—In two coastal North Carolina rivers (Contentnea Creek and the Northeast Cape Fear River), we found the food habits of introduced flathead catfish Pylodictis olivaris to be primarily piscivorous, which could restructure or suppress native fish communities through direct predation. Fish or crayfish contributed more than 50% of the stomach contents by percent occurrence, percent by number, and p...
