Abstract:
The population dynamics of juvenile snapper, Pagrus auratus, were investigated in the Hauraki Gulf, north-eastern New Zealand, between 1982 and 1990. Attention focused on age and growth, temporal and spatial variation in abundance, and recruitment. Daily increment formation was validated in the sagittae of snapper up to about 160 days old. Increment width varied with time of year, and snapper age, and increments were not resolvable with a light microscope during winter. Increment counts inside a prominent metamorphic mark showed that larval duration was 18-32 days, and was inversely related to

Abstract:
Snapper, Pagrus auratus is a valuable coastal fish species in New Zealand and forms an important commercial and recreational fishing industry in the north-east of New Zealand.

Many non-indigenous macrobenthic species have now become established in New Zealand waters. For example, in Rangitoto Channel, Hauraki Gulf, non-indigenous macrobenthic species are prolific, with three bivalve species in particular having thriving populations: Limaria orientalis, Musculista s

Mangroves and seagrass beds serve as essential fish habitat for many economically- and ecologically-valuable species.

In South Florida, one of the most important fish species that utilizes these habitats is the gray snapper (Lutjanus griseus).

DNA barcoding is typically used by regulatory agencies to detect seafood substitution; however, it is expensive and time-consuming.

Abstract:
The overall aim of this thesis was to determine the size and age compositions, growth and reproductive biology of Western Blue Groper (Achoerodus gouldii), Blue Morwong (Nemadactylus valenciennesi) and Yellowtail Flathead (Platycepahlus endrachtensis) in south-western Australian waters, in which these three species have divergent life cycle characteristics. As A. gouldii and N. valenciennesi are commercially and recreationally important in coastal waters and P. endrachtensis is one of the most recreationally important species in the Swan River Estuary, these biological data were then used to p

Abstract:
This study examined the effects of the January 2010 cold spell on mangrove utilizing coral reef fishes off the southeast coast of Florida, USA, in the vicinity of Biscayne National Park (BNP). An ongoing, fishery-independent mangrove visual survey documenting fish assemblages in BNP provided data from the years 1998 to 2014 for examination. Of particular interest were the presence, abundance, and size structure for five mangrove utilizing coral reef fishes: sergeant major (Abudefduf saxatilis), yellowfin mojarra (Gerres cinereus), schoolmaster snapper (Lutjanus apodus), gray snapper (Lutjanus

Abstract:
Aspects of the population biology of juvenile Pagrus auratus in the western gulf of Shark Bay, Western Australia, were investigated to explore the causes of an observed size difference between 0+ fish (first year of life) in the northern and southern regions of that gulf. Five trawl surveys were conducted in each region of the western gulf, from November 2000 to December 2001, to collect juvenile P. auratus. The 0+ fish from the northern region were found to be consistently greater in length by between 10 and 20mm LCF, than those in the southern region, thereby confirming those observed size d

Abstract:
<p> Between August 2010 and September 2012, acoustic telemetry was used to monitor movements of 31 Yellow Snapper and 25 Leopard Grouper at Los Islotes reserve, a small rocky reef and reported spawning site for both species in the southwest Gulf of California. Overall, both species exhibited site fidelity to Los Islotes (grouper: present 64 f 30% of days; snapper: 49 &plusmn; 30%). Both species frequented rock and wall habitats; though snapper showed greater site attachment to specific portions of the reserve, grouper exhibited greater site fidelity to the entire reserve.

Full text
Abstract:
The Deepwater Horizon blowout occurred on April 20th, 2010 and released nearly 5 million barrels of crude oil into the northern Gulf of Mexico causing pollution of the water and sediment inhabited by many fishes for at least 87 days while the wellhead went uncapped. Populations of the Gulf of Mexico Red snapper, Lutjanus campechanus, an important fish to the ecology and economy in the region, exhibit affinity to shallow water oil infrastructure such as the Deepwater Horizon making them especially vulnerable to crude oil contamination. The objective of this study is to determine growth of Red s

Abstract:
Movement patterns and space use by mature fishes are critical in determining the effectiveness of marine reserves in conserving spawning stock biomass and/or providing biomass to adjacent fisheries through 'spillover'. Home range sizes, activity patterns, site fidelity and habitat preferences were determined for acoustically-tagged snappers and groupers using a rigorously-calibrated array of omnidirectional hydroacoustic receivers deployed in the diverse coral reef environments of a no-take marine reserve (NTMR) network in the Dry Tortugas, Florida.
