Abstract:
Freshwater eels (Anguilla spp.) have a long and complex catadromous life cycle. This unique feature, coupled with difficulty in separating species based on morphology, makes them complex targets for conservation. In this study we evaluated the utility of DNA barcoding using cytochrome oxidase I (COI) to delimit the four species of African eels found in the western Indian Ocean region. We collected 76 individual fin clips from the four eel species (A. mossambica, n=51; A. marmorata, n=17; A. bengalensis, n=6; A. bicolor, n=2) in the rivers of KwaZulu–Natal, South Africa, in 2016–18.

Abstract:
A better understanding of the stock structure of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in the Indian Ocean is needed to ensure the sustainable management of the fishery. In this study, carbon and oxygen stable isotopes (δ13C and δ18O) and trace elements (138Ba, 55Mn, 25Mg and 88Sr) were measured in otoliths of young-of-the-year (YOY) and age-1 yellowfin tuna collected from the Mozambique Channel and north-west Indian Ocean regions. Elemental profiles showed variation in Ba, Mg and Mn in YOY otolith composition, but only Mn profiles differed between regions. Differences in YOY near-core chemistry

Abstract:
Spatial and temporal distribution patterns of scombrid larvae along the east coast of South Africa were investigated from ichthyoplankton collections made during May–June 1990 (winter), October 1990 (spring) and February 1991 (summer). Results were analysed in relation to oceanographic conditions and known spawning localities of tuna and mackerels in the western Indian Ocean. In total, eight species were represented in the samples, with highest diversity in February and lowest numbers in May–June. Larvae of the temperate chub mackerel Scomber japonicus were most abundant at shelf stations duri

Abstract:
The highly diverse goatfish genus Upeneus (Mullidae) requires enhanced attention regarding the possible occurrence of undescribed species in insufficiently explored regions. This study focuses on the South-Western Indian Ocean region (SWIO), and on the so-called japonicus-group, a taxonomic species group of Upeneus. Based on in-situ observations and collections in Sodwana Bay, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, the Floros goatfish, U. floros n. sp., is described. Detailed comparative studies of colour patterns and morphological characters of all other 13 japonicus-group species were undertaken as we

Abstract:
Abstract Recent observations taken at four principal latitudes in the Agulhas Current show that the watermass properties on either side of its dynamical core are significantly different. Inshore of its velocity core are found waters of predominantly Arabian Sea, Red Sea, and equatorial Indian Ocean origin, while offshore waters are generally from the Atlantic Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and the southeast Indian Ocean. For the most part, the inshore waters approach the Agulhas Current through the Mozambique Channel, while those offshore are circulated within the southern Indian Ocean subtropical

AbstractSouthern elephant sealsMirounga leoninawithin the Kerguelen province disperse between Marion Island (MI), Iles Crozet (IC) and Iles Kerguelen (IK) despite the high site fidelity characteristic of this species. From 1987–2002, 199 IC individuals, or 11.63% of the tagged population there, were resighted at MI. Resights of IC seals at MI peaked during the juvenile moult and seals aged 0–2 represent 66% of all resights made. Equal numbers of male and female seals (all age classes) were dispersing. Dispersing breeding females (n= 22, on 33 occasions) outnumbered dispersing breeding males (n

Abstract:
ABSTRACTIslam in KwaZulu-Natal has typically been seen as an Indian preserve and as closely linked with contestations around South African Indian identities. Against this background, dedication to Islam among Africans has appeared as exceptional, represented by groupings with particular histories of immigration from Mozambique, Malawi or Zambia. Since the 1970s, strong efforts have been made to extend the call of Islam to Africans in the province, as demonstrated in the mobilization efforts of the Islamic Propagation Centre International and the Muslim Youth Movement, and in the dawah projects

Abstract:
The Natal Valley is a sediment-filled marine basin situated between the east coast of southern Africa (Natal) and the Mozambique Ridge. Geophysical and sedimentological techniques are used in a broad geological study of the mid Natal Valley. Major emphasis is directed to: (a) basin history and tectonic evolution; (b) seismic stratigraphy of the basin fill; (c) recent sedimentary processes and responses. General basin morphology is defined by five major physiographic provinces: continental shelf and slope, Tugela Cone, Central Terrace, Mozambique Ridge and deep basin plain. Thinned (20-25 km) c
