assessment of culverts of fish passage barriers in a Montana drainage using a multi-tiered approach Restriction or blockage of fish movement due to culverts may have important consequences to fish populations. Problems include the direct loss of critical upstream habitats, and the loss of connectivity with neighboring populations; however, culvert barriers may also serve to protect native species from nonnative species encroachment. Culverts can impede fish movement due to high water velocities, inadequate water depths, and excessive outfall heights among other factors. Most previous studies have focused on fish passage at only a few culverts and thus the extent to which culverts impede fish passage across large drainage basins is largely unknown. In this study, a multi-tiered approach was used to assess fish passage through culverts throughout the upper Clearwater River drainage, Montana. The FishXing software program was used to assess juvenile and adult fish passage at 46 culverts across a wide range of stream discharge. At a subset of 20 culverts, population sampling upstream and downstream of each culvert at low flow was used to determine the degree to which culverts are influencing relative abundance, size structure, and species presence. At a further subset of 10 sites, passage was measured directly at low flow by monitoring the movement of marked fish through culverts with differing physical characteristics. FishXing results indicated that 76-85% of the culverts were barriers, depending on the streamflow and lifestage assessed. The population sampling results indicated that there were a only few differences in relative abundance or size structure at the culverts sampled at low flow, and there was little evidence to suggest that species presence was different below versus above the culverts. The direct passage study results showed that some passage occurred at 90% of the culverts studied at low flow. However, 7 of the 10 culverts showed some degree of passage impedance. There was a moderately significant positive relationship between passage impedance and outlet height (r2 = 0.41, P = 0.047). In summary, the culverts were restricting passage to upstream habitats that may be important for spawning, growth, and survival, but they were generally not isolating populations nor serving as barriers to protect native species from non-native species encroachment |

Assessment of the South Atlantic red porgy (Pagrus pagrus) population under a moratorium Although decreasing red porgy data resulted in slight changes in assessment results, there are more data available for this species than other species in the snapper-grouper complex. For these lesser-studied species, reducing data could dramatically affect assessment capabilities. To investigate this, I compiled available data for these species and identified the stock assessment method used. I then predicted assessment capabilities for each species under a moratorium and if the MARMAP survey was eliminated. A moratorium could reduce assessment capabilities for 37 of the 73 species, and 63 species would require management based on key species. Removing MARMAP data would reduce assessment capabilities of eight species, many of which are economically important. There was an overwhelming need for a reliable catch-per-effort index, information that could improve assessment capabilities of 67 species. This index could be obtained by expanding the MARMAP survey, from a fishery observer program, or from commercial logbooks. By linking the red porgy stock assessment, an evaluation of sampling regimes and data loss during a moratorium, and the expansion of this stock assessment strategy to multiple species, managers will ultimately benefit from increased ability to manage stocks experiencing varying regulations and data availability |

It contains pictures of H & E paraffin sections of healthy tissue. It is not a complete atlas, and the user is referred to other more complete texts (i.e., Bell & Lightner, 1988; Factor, 1995; Johnson, 1980). This atlas, therefore, contains those tissues which are readily observed or most commonly affected by disease. Several of the tissues can be used for comparison with other lobster species, and other crustaceans"--Slide 3 |

Boundary definition for the Central Coast Integrated Management Area Fisheries & Oceans Canada is currently defining large ocean management areas with the goal of developing integrated management plans for these areas. This report begins with an overview of criteria used in defining boundaries for integrated management areas and a review of marine ecosystem boundary systems & classification on the Pacific coast. It then proposes an area boundary for the Central Coast Integrated Management Plan large ocean management area. The basis for the boundaries is the use of scientific information to locate boundaries such that environmental characteristics on one side of the boundary differ significantly from those on the other. The reasoning & evidence behind the selection of each part of the area boundary are discussed |

Braided river ecology : a literature review of physical habitats and aquatic invertebrate communities / A braided river is one that, over some part of its length, flows in multiple, mobile channels across a gravel floodplain. In New Zealand, many braided rivers remain in a relatively unmodified condition, but increasing demands for hydro-electricity generation, irrigation, gravel extraction and flood protection works are placing pressure on these systems. However, apart from a limited number of studies on the ecology of individual species or reaches, there has been little coordinated ecological research to assess the overall values and function of braided river ecosystems in New Zealand. This review summarises the international and New Zealand literature on braided rivers, with particular emphasis on benthic invertebrate ecology. Braided rivers typically experience short-term channel migration within the active bed and greater lateral channel migration across the entire floodplain in the longer term. Channel migration occurs because steep headwater tributaries supply highly variable discharges and mobile erodable substrates to the mainstem. Braided rivers typically possess extended floodplains, which may contain a mosaic of floodplain habitats ranging from highly unstable main-stem channels to stable spring complexes. Main channel aquatic invertebrate communities are frequently low in diversity and dominated by the leptophlebiid mayfly Deleatidium spp., but also chironomids and elmid beetles. In contrast, floodplain springs can have highly diverse communities rich in amphipods, mayflies, caddis, snails and chironomids. Groundwater and floodplain pond habitats also occur frequently and can contain several specialist taxa. Braided rivers and their floodplains are spatially complex, temporally dynamic habitats with high landscape- and reach-scale biodiversity values. The challenge facing managers is to protect this biodiversity within the context of increasing human demands on the rivers. This report highlights the particular threats and management issues associated with braided rivers in New Zealand and identifies areas where future research is required |

British Columbia longspine thornyhead fishery analysis of survey and commercial data, 1996-2003 This report presents an analysis of the biomass survey conducted annually 2001-03 on the deep water population of longspine thornyheads off the west coast of Vancouver Island (WCVI). It examines the survey data in the context of a coastwide longspine fishery that began in 1996 and extended northward from WCVI into two northern regions, Tidemarks and Rennell. Because the survey has limited coverage in space and time, that analysis is compared with similar analyses of commercial catch per unit effort data in WCVI & the two northern regions, where no surveys exist. It presents an integrated framework of three mathematical models for making these comparisons: swept-area biomass estimates, standardized catch rates with fixed effects for various factors, and swept-area biomass estimates with standardized vessel effects. The paper concludes with recommendations for planning future surveys, integrating data from surveys & commercial fisheries, planning future reductions in the commercial fishery, and improving the basic biological information available for this species |

Captive rearing and biology of the endangered giant land snails Placostylus ambagiosus and P. hongii (Pulmonata:Bulimulidae) / Rearing of the land snails Placostylus ambagiosus paraspiritus, P. a. michiei, and P. hongii in captivity was investigated as a conservation management option for establishing new populations of these threatened animals. Snails were kept in the laboratory with mostly karaka, Corynocarpus laevigatus, leaves as food. Snails were exposed to differing frequencies of handling, crowding conditions, and given different substrates in which to lay eggs. Less frequent disturbance resulted in better survival in P. ambagiosus. Both P. ambagiosus and P. hongii laid clutches of 1-84 similarly sized eggs buried up to 2 cm deep, but the species appeared to have different substrate size preferences. Placostylus ambagiosus kept singly or in pairs grew larger than those in the wild. Crowding reduced growth rate, increased mortality, and resulted in smaller adults. Captive-bred adult P. ambagiosus lived for 3.3-11.4 y: one adult P. hongii lived for 2.6 y and another lived for 4.6 y before being translocated onto an island. Both Placostylus ambagiosus and P. hongii can be successfully reared in captivity, in the laboratory, and large numbers of snails can potentially be produced, albeit with substantial costs. Although potentially risky for augmenting existing populations, these protocols may enable the establishment of new populations of these snails |

Capture-based aquaculture : the fattening of eels, groupers, tunas, and yellowtails / This publication defines and reviews certain practices that are shared between aquaculture and capture fisheries. It specifically considers the on-growing of fattening of four species groups - eels, groupers, tunas and yellowtails - which is based on the use of wild-caught "seed". The report begins with an introduction on the overlap between aquaculture and fisheries and their global trends. Chapters on the four species group follow and include information on species identification, fishery trends, the supply and transfer of "seed" for stocking purposes, aquaculture trends, culture systems, feeds and feeding regimes, fish health, harvesting and marketing. Further chapters examine the environmental and socio-economic impacts of capture-based aquaculture, together with the relevant fisheries and aquaculture management issues. Finally, the report looks at food safety issues, as well as identifies topics for future consideration. The principal targeted audience includes policy-makers, administrators and trainers in the fields of aquaculture, fisheries and the environment |

Checklist of the parasites of fishes of Bangladesh / The parasite fauna of fishes of Bangladesh remains poorly known. Parasites have been reported from only 85 of the 528 species of marine and freshwater fish occurring in the waters of Bangladesh. The situation is complicated by the large number of reports that are based on apparent misidentifications, the existence of a plethora of poorly described species, and the relatedness of the Bangladeshi fish parasite fauna to that of the larger Indian subregion, which is also poorly known for many of the same reasons |

Checklist of the parasites of fishes of the Philippines / This checklist summarizes information on the parasites of Philippine fishes contained in the world literature dating from the earliest known record (de Blainville 1822) to the end of 1996. Information is presented in the form of parasite-host and host-parasite lists. Included are 201 named species of parasites, distributed among the higher taxa as follows: Apicomplexta - 1, Ciliophora - 16, Mastigophora - 2, Microspora - 1, Myxozoa - 9, Trematoda - 90, Monogenea - 22, Cestoda - 6, Nematoda - 20, Acanthocephala - 5, Mollusca - 1, Branchiura - 2, Copepoda - 21 and Isopoda - 5. Also included are many records of parasites not identified to species level. Parasites have been reported from 172 of the more than 2030 species of marine and freshwater fish occurring in Philippine waters, and from another 17 species of freshwater aquarium fish examined in the Philippines but not found in natural waters. The Parasite-Host List is organized on a taxonomic basis and provides information for each parasite species on the environment (fresh water, brackish water, marine), the location (site of infection) in or on its host(s), the species of host(s) infected, the known geographic distribution (by island) in the Philippines, and the published sources for each host and locality record. The Host-Parasite List is organized according to the taxonomy of the hosts, and includes for each host, the English language and local (typically Tagalog) common names, environment (fresh water, brackish water, marine), status in the Philippines (native or exotic), and information on the known Philippine distribution of the parasites. Both lists are accompanied by remarks and footnotes, as warranted, giving specific information on points of systematics, nomenclature, possible misidentifications, introductions, pathogenicity, etc. Citations are included for all references and a supplementary list of references contains other literature on Philippine fish parasites. Parasite and host indices are included. The following new taxonomic combinations are made: Prosorhynchoides philippinorum (Velasquez, 1959) n. comb., for Bucephaloides philippinorum Velasquez, 1959; Prosorhynchoides sibi (Yamaguti, 1940) n. comb., for Bucephaloides sibi (Yamaguti, 1940); Genolinea awa (Yamaguti, 1965) n. comb., for Pseudobunocotyla awa Yamaguti, 1965; and Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) philippinensis (Velasquez, 1980) n. comb., for Spirocamallanus philippinensis Velasquez, 1980 |

Checklist of the parasites of fishes of Viet Nam / The parasite fauna of fishes of Viet Nam has received considerable attention, particularly by scientists of the former Soviet Union, in the marine environment, and by Vietnamese and Czech freshwater scientists. Nevertheless, parasites have been recorded from only about ten percent of the more than 1300 species of marine and freshwater fish occurring in the waters of Viet Nam. Knowledge of freshwater fauna is hampered by a lack of descriptive work and by many probable misidentifications of parasites, due to the tendency of Vietnamese workers to report European species from the local fish fauna |

comparative study of functional morphology of the male reproductive systems in the Astacidea with emphasis on the freshwater crayfishes (Crustacea:Decapoda) / This study of the functional morphology of the male reproductive system in astacidean crustaceans has allowed for comparisons of representatives of the superfamilies Parastacoidea, Enoplometopoidea, Nephropoidea, and the Astacoidea with a focus on the crayfishes. Tissues from the testes and (to the extent possible) vasa deferentia were prepared for light and scanning electron microscopy and specimens of the following families were used: Parastacidae -- Parastacoides tasmanicus tasmanicus, Astacopsis franklinii, Parastacus nicoleti; Enoplometopidae -- Enoplometopus occidentalis; Nephropidae -- Homarus americanus; Astacidae -- Pacifastacus leniusculus trowbridgii; Cambaridae -- Cambaroides japonicus, Cambaroides similis, Cambarus (Puncticambarus) acuminatus, C. (Hiaticambarus) longulus, Procambarus (Ortmannicus) fallax, P. (O.) zonangulus, P. (Scapulicambarus) paeninsulanus, and Orconectes (Procericambarus) rusticus. The single organ testis is "H-shaped" in members of the Parastacoidea, Enoplometopoidea, and Nephropoidea and consists of a pair of longitudinal lobes, each composed of an anterior and posterior lobule joined by a transverse commissure or bridge. The derived "Y-shaped" pattern of the testis of the Astacoidea is trilobed and consists of a pair of anterior lobules and a median posterior lobule that in most adult Cambaridae are joined by a trifurcate, constricted stalk, a structure that is lacking in the Cambaroidinae and Astacidae. The sac-like acini lie in the axes of the testicular lobules and produce spermatozoa. As spermatogenesis proceeds, each acinus becomes larger and, with spermiogenesis and the expulsion of spermatozoa into the collecting ducts, undergoes one or two of three fates: (1) acinus regeneration occurs and another cycle of sperm production ensues (adopted exclusively by the Astacidae and Cambaroidinae); (2) secondary acini develop in the wall of existing acini, converting the primary acinus into a passageway to the collecting tubules; or (3) the acinus degenerates and new acini arise from collecting tubules (employed only by the Cambarinae and Cambarellinae). The first and second fates have been adopted by the Parastacoidea, the Enoplometopoidea, and the Nephropoidea. In the Cambarinae and Cambarellinae, the germinal cells are recognizable only in the acinar buds from the collecting tubules and when they assume the role of spermatogonia; they are not evident along the lengths of the tubules nor are they present within an acinus after the onset of spermatogenesis. In all other astacideans examined, the germinal cells seem always to be present in the collecting tubules. Additionally, they appear in the walls of acini by the time the spermatogenic elements are being converted to spermatids, frequently forming clusters, the primordia of secondary acini in the Parastacoidea, the Nephropoidea, and occasionally the Enoplometopoidea. Germinal cells may be disposed in a partial layer or scattered within the walls of an acinus and constitute the initial spermatogonia of a new cycle of sperm production. This is what occurs in the acini of the Astacidae, Cambaroidinae, Parastacoidea, Nephropoidea, and Enoplometopoidea |

Competition between the threatened Bliss Rapids snail, Taylorconcha serpenticola (Hershler et al.) and the invasive, aquatic snail, Potamopyrgus antipodarum (Gray) Due primarily to habitat loss and invasive species, extinction rates for North American mollusk taxa are among the highest for any taxonomic group in the world. Competition between invasive and native species often leads to decreases in native populations. For example, a primary reason for listing the Bliss Rapids snail, Taylorconcha serpenticola as threatened in the Snake River drainage was the perceived impacts of the highly invasive New Zealand mudsnail, Potamopyrgus antipodarum. Despite federal protection of T. serpenticola and the known presence of P. antipodarum in the Snake River drainage for almost 20 years, almost nothing is known about their ecology and competitive interactions. For this dissertation I conducted both field and laboratory studies to determine niche overlaps, spatial patterns, and some life history characteristics of both species. I compared optimal growth temperatures and estimated temperature tolerances for each species, under laboratory conditions; 2) examined stage (size) class fecundity rates and growth rates; and 3) examined photophobic tendencies of both species. I then explored environmental conditions and spatial patterns of both species in Banbury Springs, a tributary of the Snake River, near Hagerman, Idaho, that may have affected their distribution and abundance using regression tree analysis and geostatistical methods. I then conducted several competition experiments between both species under controlled conditions at Banbury Springs, developed competition coefficients, and related their growth rates and competitive outcomes to periphyton abundance and diversity. Finally, I monitored and then modeled seasonal and yearly population density trends of both species in a section of Banbury Springs, where both coexist, using time series analysis. Results of this study show that that both species have niche overlaps (i.e. temperature overlaps, photophobic tendencies, and somewhat similar habitat requirements) and can compete for limited food resources, but may have just enough niche separation or their occupied habitat is heterogeneous enough for them to coexist, at present. It is possible however that not enough time has elapsed for the effects of competition with P. antipodarum to push T. serpenticola to extinction |

Competition potential between sauger and walleye in non-native sympatry historical trends and resource overlap in the middle Missouri River, Montana / Sauger, Sander canadensis, populations throughout Montana and North America have exhibited declines over the past few decades. Sauger population abundance declined in the middle Missouri and Yellowstone rivers of Montana in the mid-1980s following a period of drought. Higher flows resulted in a rebound of the lower Yellowstone River population; however, the middle Missouri River population has remained at low abundance. Various factors may contribute to the reduced population abundance of sauger in the middle Missouri River, including interspecific competition with walleye, Sander vitreus. Historical trend data of sauger and walleye were assessed to determine long-term trends of sauger and walleye fitness. To assess competition potential, seasonal migrations, habitat use, and diets of both species were compared in the middle Missouri River. Trophic position of sauger was also compared between the middle Missouri and Yellowstone rivers to evaluate the trophic status of sauger in sympatry and allopatry with walleye. Sauger and walleye were tracked using radio telemetry to establish and compare seasonal migrations. Habitat use was compared at three hierarchical scales, diets were collected on fish sampled using electrofishing, and diet overlap was calculated. Trophic position was calculated using stable isotope analysis. Historical trend data indicated that sauger and walleye are currently at low abundance and sauger had low relative weights, which is likely due to low prey availability. Prior to the presumed spawning period, 96% of the sauger and 57% of the walleye migrated downstream as far as 273 km. After spawning, both species returned to previously-occupied river reaches and demonstrated site fidelity during the non-migratory season. Habitat use and selection by sauger and walleye were similar at all three hierarchical scales. Diet overlap was high during the spring [0.72 (SE=0.003)] and summer [0.95 (SE=0.0008)] and moderate during autumn [0.49 (SE=0.003)]. Sauger trophic position differed statistically between the middle Missouri and Yellowstone rivers; however, the biological consequences of the difference are uncertain. Overall, resource overlap of sauger and walleye in the middle Missouri River, Montana suggests that competition potential between these species is high, which may preclude the recovery of native sauger populations if resources are limiting |

Design and feasibility of wash-down stations for boating equipment entering the Rotorua Lakes / Biological diversity in the Rotorua Lakes, New Zealand, is under threat from aquatic pests, in particular pest fish species and various lake weeds. This report considers possible solutions to both out-of-district contamination and cross-contamination of the Rotorua Lakes. A network comprising ten decontamination facilities is proposed, with facilities located on public land: specifically, land managed by the Department of Conservation and road reserves. A number of decontamination methods are considered. The two methods that are recommended for further investigation are high-pressure, multi-nozzle water blasting, and a combination of dipping and ultrasonic irradiation. Incentives to use the decontamination facilities and construction and operational costs are considered. As a case study, a facility located at the southern entrance to Rotorua is considered. Possible costs to establish this case-study facility are also provided. It is proposed that a single case-study facility be established initially, and monitored for operational and strategic success |

development and management framework for a new Octopus vulgaris fishery in South Africa A new policy incorporating an operational protocol was developed for the establishment of new fisheries in South Africa. The common octopus, Octopus vulgaris was used as a candidate species for the project. The operational protocol consisted of a three-phased development framework, namely information gathering (Phase 0), an experimental fishery (Phase 1) and the final implementation of a commercial fishery (Phase 2). The present study focussed on phase 0 of this theoretical framework and protocol and was implemented by using a proposed octopus pot fishery in South Africa as a case study. Phase 0 included a desktop study, information gathering in the field, an economic feasibility study and the formulation of a Fishery Management Plan and experimental design for the fishery. Information gaps identified during the desktop study were addressed during field investigations into the population structure and biology of O. vulgaris along the southeast coast. Immature females were found to use the intertidal area to feed and grow before migrating to the subtidal area to mature and spawn. Mean size differed substantially between intertidal and subtidal areas, with larger octopus found subtidally. Age and growth trials using tetracycline as a marker showed that O. vulgaris deposit daily growth lines in their beaks. A genetic study showed that there is most likely only one panmitic population along the coast. The economic feasibility study indicated that a longline pot fishery could be feasible provided a 30% catch in 6600 pots/month is attained. Only existing, debt-free vessels should be used in this fishery. The Fishery Management Plan proposed in this study includes management measures such as effort limitation of licences and gear, size restrictions, vessel monitoring systems, and observer programmes. Based on the population dynamics and biology of O. vulgaris it is suggested that a precautionary approach to developing fisheries for this species in both the inter- and subtidal areas along the South African coast |

Discards in the world's marine fisheries : an update / Discards represent a significant proportion of global marine catches and are generally thought to constitute waste or suboptimal use of fishery resources. A number of United Nations resolutions have drawn attention to the need to monitor and reduce discards and unwanted bycatch, in order to assess the impact of discards on marine resources and promote technologies and other means of reducing them. This paper provides an update of the quantity of discards in the world's marine fisheries based on a fishery-by-fishery approach. The previous FAO estimate of discards at a global level, based on data prior to 1994, is now considered outdated. The present study re-estimates discards at a global level using information from a broad range of fisheries in all continents. Selected policy and technical issues are highlighted and suggestions made for future actions. A road map for achieving further precision in the global estimate is described and associated initiatives are outlined |

Distribution and population characteristics of lake trout in Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park implications for suppression / Bull trout Salvelinus confluentus have declined since the establishment of nonnative lake trout Salvelinus namaycush in Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park (GNP). In an attempt to prevent further decline of this population, GNP is considering implementing a lake trout suppression program. I used ultrasonic telemetry to examine the spatial and temporal distribution of lake trout and gill nets to evaluate population characteristics and diet. Model simulations were used to predict lake trout responses to varying levels of suppression. I relocated 36 lake trout (508-859 mm total length) 1,137 times from June through November 2003 and March through November 2004. Lake trout had a narrow vertical distribution during all seasons in both 2003 and 2004, rarely occupying depths >30 m. During thermal stratification, lake trout occupied depths in the upper hypolimnion where mean temperature varied from 8-9C and dissolved oxygen was highest. Lake trout typically were suspended in the water column during all seasons except autumn. When spawning commenced in late-October, lake trout were associated with littoral habitats containing clean cobble and boulder substrates. The lake trout population had a broad age structure and a maximum age of 37 years. Males reached maturity earlier (12 years) than females (15 years), and total annual mortality rate for lake trout ages 8-27 was 13.2%. Growth rates were slow and relative weight values were among the lowest observed for lake trout throughout their range. Food habits were sampled from 254 lake trout, and 95% of the diet by weight consisted of fish prey. Model simulations indicated that substantial population reduction could be achieved with moderate exploitation (20-50%); however, this was more easily achieved as the size at which lake trout could effectively be captured was reduced. Simulations suggested that recruitment could be reduced to a level where adults are not being replaced at low exploitation (10-30%). These data will allow suppression efforts to be focused at times and places that will maximize efficiency, and population simulations suggest that substantial reduction of the lake trout population is feasible. Ultimately, results from this study should promote recovery of bull trout in Lake McDonald |

effect of mercury on the feeding behavior of fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) Fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) were exposed to mercury (1.69, 6.79, and 13. 57 [micron]g/l HgCl2; 10 d exposure) and afterwards tested using various metrics of foraging ability while feeding in a vegetated habitat. Among the foraging metrics were foraging efficiency, capture speed, and the ability to learn and retain information regarding habitat characteristics. Comparisons with control fish and fish from the two highest exposure groups revealed consistent performance deficits in foraging efficiency and capture speed. However, no treatment effects on learning were detected. In determining the underlying proximate cause of the foraging deficits, it is believed that the greater pause time exhibited by treatment fish while foraging was the main cause of treatment differences. In the future, behavioral studies will continue to allow toxicity testing of environmentally relevant variables such as those used by behavioral ecologists. Such tests, when combined with tests of field collected specimens, could prove powerful in linking laboratory toxicity to toxicity in wild populations |

Effects of bottom fishing on Georges Bank In order to gain a better understanding of how bottom fishing impacts benthic organisms, a team of researchers from the University of Rhode Island's Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) set out in 1994 to survey the benthic megafaunal community of Georges Bank. This project's study area was confined to the gravel habitat that straddles the boundary between the U.S. and Canadian exclusive economic zones (EEZs). This area was selected because previous research has indicated that it serves as an important nursery for juvenile cod (Gadus morhua) and haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus). Within this region, trawl marks appearing in side scan sonar images were counted in order to identify sites with different levels of bottom fishing disturbance. Based on this information, six study sites were pinpointed and classified as either "disturbed" or "undisturbed." At these sites, benthic dredge samples have been collected on a nearly annual basis. In addition, photographs and videos of the sea floor have been recorded using the SEABOSS system, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), and manned submersibles. Data from this project have revealed significant differences between disturbed and undisturbed sites in terms of abundance, biomass, species diversity, and benthic community structure. In December 1994, three large sections of Georges Bank, comprising an area of 17,000 km2, were closed to all types of fishing gear capable of retaining groundfish. Since one of our most disturbed study sites was located within a closed area, this event provided a unique opportunity to investigate the changes that occur as a benthic ecosystem recovers from chronic fishing impacts |

Effects of low flow on dwarf galaxias and their habitat in the Wairau River / Trustpower's proposed power scheme on the braided Wairau River, Marlborough, New Zealand, would divert up to 40 m3/s of water through a 50-km canal, leaving a residual flow of 10-20 m3/s in the affected reaches of the river. Two-dimensional flow modelling has predicted that at flows of 15-20 m3/s, the flow in the affected reaches would be largely confined to the main channel, effectively eliminating shallow side-braid habitat, with an associated decline in available habitat for dwarf galaxias (Galaxias divergens), a small endemic fish that inhabits these sidebraids. This report investigates changes in a population of dwarf galaxias as flow declined over one summer season, in habitats provided by a seep-fed side-braid of the Wairau River. The study confirmed that as flow dropped to approximately 20 m3/s, habitat availability was reduced, and the braid became isolated from the main channel. This occurred alongside an apparent natural reduction in the abundance of dwarf galaxias, from a post-spawning abundance of predominantly juvenile fish. The ecology of dwarf galaxias appears to enable them to tolerate natural low-flow events. However, had this flow reduction occurred earlier in the year (or been sustained year round), it may have had a negative impact on the dwarf galaxias population. Side-braid habitat is likely to be vital for the survival of dwarf galaxias in the Wairau River, providing habitat, abundant invertebrate food and refuge from both physical and biological disturbances. Side-braids also appear to provide ideal foraging habitat for black-fronted terns (Sterna albostriata) which feed on dwarf galaxias and other small fishes during their breeding season. Ensuring that water abstraction at the proposed water intake does not cause the frequency and duration of occurrence of flows <= 22 m3/s to exceed natural rates should avoid exacerbating low-flow impacts on dwarf galaxias and foraging area for black-fronted terns downstream |

Effects of temperature on survival and growth of westslope cutthroat trout and rainbow trout implications for conservation and restoration / Westslope cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii lewisi have declined throughout their native range in the Northern Rockies and were considered for listing under the federal Endangered Species Act. Water temperature is widely regarded as playing a key role in determining their persistence, but specific lethal levels and thermal optima for this cutthroat trout subspecies had not been precisely defined. This laboratory study used the acclimated chronic exposure method to determine tolerances and thermal optima of westslope cutthroat trout and rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, a potential nonnative competitor now occupying much of the former range of westslope cutthroat trout. Rainbow trout had a distinct survival advantage over westslope cutthroat trout at warmer temperatures. The ultimate upper incipient lethal temperature (temperature at which 50% of the population survives for 60-d) of rainbow trout (24.30C; 95% CI, 24.0-24.70C) was 4.70C higher than that of westslope cutthroat trout (19.60C; 95% CI, 19.1-19.90C). In contrast, the optimum growth temperature for westslope cutthroat trout (13.60C; 95% CI, 10.3-17.00C) over the 60-d test period was very similar to that of rainbow trout (13.10C; 95% CI, 6.8-18.20C), although rainbow trout grew better over a wider range and at higher temperatures than did westslope cutthroat trout. The upper lethal and optimum growth temperatures for westslope cutthroat trout are in the lower range among most salmonids. The higher upper temperature tolerance of rainbow trout and its greater ability for growth at warmer temperatures may account for its increased occurrence at lower elevations than cutthroat trout. Water quality standards setting maximum daily temperatures from 13-150C, near the optimum growth temperature, would ensure suitable thermal habitat to maintain the persistence of westslope cutthroat trout populations. In addition, survival and growth parameters indicated in this study can be used with stream temperature modeling to predict suitable habitat for westslope cutthroat trout, as they may be particularly susceptible to increases in stream temperature associated with climate change. Such predictions of habitat suitability will be vital in prioritizing conservation efforts with respect to reintroduction and translocation of westslope cutthroat trout |

Evaluations of compliance with the FAO (UN) Code of conduct for responsible fisheries / "This report presents evaluations of the compliance of 53 countries (strictly, marine fisheries jurisdictions) representing over 96% of the reported world fish catch, with Article 7, covering Fisheries Management, of the FAO (UN) Code of conduct for responsible fisheries, originally agreed by members of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published in 1995. Evaluations are based on an adaptation of a previously-published rapid appraisal scheme of 44 questions, each scored on a scale of zero to ten according to pre-set guidelines. Scores less than 4/10 signify 'fail' grades, while scores of 7/10 and over are regarded as showing good compliance. Scores have been based on cited published and unpublished literature and on the views of experts: some 2475 references have been consulted in the course of the work, which has taken three years. Each country evaluation is authored by members from the scoring team and in some cases includes external experts. Each evaluation has been subjected to a rigorous scoring protocol involving a series of cross-checks by the scoring team. In addition, many of the evaluations have been validated by external experts familiar with the country concerned (33/53 in January 2007). The 44 questions in the evaluations are divided in two parts, the first representing the intentions of a country to follow the Code, the second part assessing the actual performance achieved. Six evaluation fields, deriving from the themes of the 52 clauses in the Code text, cover management objectives (9 questions), regulatory framework (7 questions); precautionary approach (9 questions); the regulation of stocks, fleets and fishing gears (7 questions); social and economic factors (6 questions); and monitoring, control and surveillance (MSC) (6 questions). Overall results in each of these six fields for each country are expressed as a kite diagram. Each score has been given an uncertainty range that may be employed in any analysis of the results. A graphical score profile, including uncertainty, is presented for each country. The authors are aware that omissions and errors of interpretation may still remain for some countries. An open protocol has therefore been adopted for all country compliance evaluations, and the team remains open at any time to comments, corrections, adjustments or opinions that may be used to improve the accuracy of the evaluations. The 53 country reports comprise over 1170 pages and are published as links to web-based files (available at ftp://ftp.fisheries.ubc.ca/CodeConduct/ or at http://public.box.net/CodeofConduct, and also linked from country pages at www.seaaroundus.org). In this way, the country evaluations are 'living documents' that may change with time when modified or new material comes to light. A comparative analysis of the results from these Code compliance reports will be published elsewhere"--Executive summary |

Factors affecting cetacean bycatch in a New Zealand trawl fishery / Incidental catch of cetaceans in commercial fisheries is a global phenomenon, occurring across a range of fishery types and affecting numerous species. In some cases such interactions have led to population declines, and may threaten viability of cetacean populations or species. In New Zealand, common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) bycatch often occurs during trawling for the commercial fish species jack mackerel (Trachurus novaezelandiae). Data gathered by New Zealand fisheries observers between the 2001/2002 and 2004/2005 fishing years (i.e. 01 October 2001 to 30 September 2005) were collated and examined to identify risk factors contributing to common dolphin bycatch in the jack mackerel trawl fishery. Exploratory analyses suggested that geographical area (represented by Fisheries Management Areas) had the most influence on dolphin bycatch. All observed bycatch events occurred in three out of eight Fisheries Management Areas. Using classification tree analysis, fishing depth emerged as an important predictor variable for dolphin bycatch during trawl tows for jack mackerel. Other potentially important predictors were total winch time and light conditions. Because of a large amount of missing data, extreme caution must be taken in generalising these results, but recommendations are made for future observer programmes and data management |

Fish ecomorphology predicting habitat preferences of stream fishes from their body shape / This research tested the ability of fish morphology to predict membership of fishes in habitat guilds, their swimming performance, and habitat preference. Further, it considered methods for choosing a surrogate species to identify habitat of target species. Morphological discriminant functions were developed using morphological traits of fishes from one river to identify membership in two habitat guild systems (mesohabitat and microhabitat). Functions were then used to test factors influencing classification success of holdout tests and validated using fishes of a second river. Morphology was only partly successful (50%) at predicting membership in habitat guilds. Morphology identified species by shape, i.e., classifying test species into guilds with members of their genus, but not habitat use, because morphology and habitat were not strongly linked through function. By improving guild definition, relationships between morphology and habitat (Froude number) were identified for all fish groups examined (darters, benthic minnows, pelagic minnows, and suckers). Relationships were not transferable among groups. Further, morphology of eight minnows was linked to swimming performance, a key task for using habitat, in lab measurements of critical swimming speeds. In turn, swimming performance was related to habitat (Froude number). Morphology will be most successful at predicting habitat use of fishes when (1) more, discrete guilds are used, (2) guilds are identified within families, (3) variation in lifestyles (benthic vs. pelagic) is considered, and (4) key tasks related to using habitat are strongly associated with morphology. Finally, Iexamined a phylogenetic approach to identifying useable habitat. Closely related surrogate species were not more accurate in identifying habitat of target species than surrogates chosen by other methods |

Framework for a benthic aquaculture monitoring program in the Pacific region The purpose of this paper is to review & recommend suitable sampling designs & methodologies for a benthic monitoring program in the Pacific region suitable for detecting environmental changes associated with salmon aquaculture. The following aspects of benthic monitoring are discussed: determining the areal extent of the zone impacted by the aquaculture activities; defining control or reference areas; and detecting the cause & magnitude of environmental change. For the latter aspect, the parameters to be monitored are examined, such as physical & chemical properties of the substrate, changes in benthos, and exchanges across the water-sediment interface. The final section outlines sampling designs, monitoring equipment,& sampling parameters suitable for different substrate types |

Freshwater fisheries in Central & Eastern Europe the challenge of sustainability : overview report / Consequently, the most urgent measure for all the surveyed countries must be the significant improvement of the efficiency of control regimes, using the Ecosystem Approach, as defined by the Convention on Biological Diversity. The education, training and awareness rising of freshwater fishery stakeholders on biodiversity and sustainable use issues can address the generally rather poor compliance of stakeholders with the relevant conservation measures. Taking into account the trend of a gradual decrease in numbers of professional fishers and increase in numbers of sport and recreational fishers, the latter should be a priority target group for IUCN cooperation. Recreational fishers in effective organizations and with their awareness sufficiently raised could be the force able to change the practices currently leading to overexploitation of freshwater fish diversity in Central and Eastern Europe. The report suggests developing a partnership between biodiversity conservationists and fishers by opening up constructive contacts between IUCN European Sustainable Use Specialists Group (ESUSG) and the IUCN Programme Office for Central Europe on the one hand and the European Anglers Alliance (EAA) and the European Inland Fisheries Advisory Commission of Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (EIFAC of FAO/UN) on the other |

Gravel burrowing ability in Galaxias cobitinis / Galaxias cobitinis (lowland longjaw galaxias) is a recently described, critically threatened fish, which occurs predominantly in the gravel-bed Kauru River, North Otago, New Zealand. This river experiences frequent droughts, which are exacerbated by water abstraction, and is an important site for gravel abstraction. Loose cobbles with large interstitial spaces are important habitat for G. cobitinis. However, gravel abstraction has reduced overall particle size, and thus interstitial space, and has led to increased embeddedness and the area of river bed covered by sand. Furthermore, during low flow periods, the area of useable habitat can be reduced to isolated groundwater-connected pools. This study investigates the survival strategy of G. cobitinis in relation to these issues. We experimentally tested the ability of G. cobitinis to burrow through gravels of differing compositions collected from an area disturbed by gravel abstraction activities, and from an unmodified section of the river bed. G. cobitinis was able to burrow into both substratum types; however, burrowing capabilities were significantly greater in undisturbed substratum samples. The influence of stable or declining water levels was also tested; however, this did not influence burrowing propensity. Importantly, G. cobitinis had limited tolerance to periods without water. Collectively, our results indicate that drought survival may be dependent on the presence of large interstitial spaces, which provide a quickly accessible route through the gravels into subsurface or hyporheic flows. Habitat modification that leads to the loss of interstitial space and prolonged drought is likely to be detrimental to the persistence of G. cobitinis in the Kauru River |

guide to the Thalassinidea (Crustacea:Malacostraca:Decapoda) of the South Atlantic Bight / Ghost shrimp and mud shrimp in the decapod infraorder Thalassinidea are ecologically important members of many benthic intertidal and shallow subtidal infaunal communities, largely due to the sediment filtration and mixing that result from their burrowing and feeding behavior. These activities considerably modify their immediate environment and have made these cryptic animals extremely interesting to scientists in terms of their behavior, ecology, and classification. Over 20 years ago, seven species of thalassinideans were known from the South Atlantic Bight (Cape Hatteras, NC to Cape Canaveral, FL). During this study, the examination of extensive collections from the National Museum of Natural History (NMNH), the Southeastern Regional Taxonomic Center (SERTC), and regional institutions, resulted in the identification of 14 species of thalassinideans currently known to occur within this region. The family Axiidae is represented by three species: Axius armatus, Calaxius jenneri, and Paraxiopsis gracilimana; the Callianassidae by six: Biffarius biformis, B. cf. fragilis, Callichirus major, Cheramus marginatus, Gilvossius setimanus, and Necallianassa berylae; the Calocarididae by two: Calocaris templemani and Acanthaxius hirsutimanus; and the families Laomediidae, Thomassiniidae, and Upogebiidae are each represented by one: Naushonia crangonoides, Crosniera wennerae, and Upogebia affinis, respectively. An illustrated key is presented for species level identification and supplemental notes on the ecology, distribution, and taxonomy of the species are provided |

horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus) demographic study We tagged 7,500 bled, adult horseshoe crabs to gain information on horseshoe crab population dynamics. From resight reports (N=121), we examined movement patterns and found average distance traveled was 29.8 miles and maximum distance traveled was 195 miles, suggesting mixing along the Atlantic coast. We found a 1.6% recovery rate of tagged crabs and tags found detached from crabs. 11.6% of our resights consisted of tags found detached from crabs. We use information gained in our study to suggest improvements for future tagging efforts that could lead to further knowledge of horseshoe crab population dynamics |

Human-mediated pathways of spread for non-indigenous marine species in New Zealand / Knowledge of human-mediated transport pathways for non-indigenous marine species (NIMS) to and around New Zealand is important for understanding and managing bioinvasion risks to high-value areas (HVAs). This document describes potential pathways for the spread of NIMS to areas of high conservation value, based on a preliminary list of such localities. This list includes HVAs that are geographically spread throughout New Zealand and vary in size from small discrete areas (e.g. small marine reserves) to expansive regions of coastline (e.g. Fiordland and Stewart Island/Rakiura). Similarly, HVAs range from remote offshore islands to localities close to centres of human activity (e.g. international ports), which may be vulnerable to the natural spread of pest organisms. Vessel traffic and aquaculture activites are highlighted as important pathways for the human-mediated spread of potential pest species. In relation to conservation areas, vessel traffic appears to be of particular significance, with three major mechanisms for the potential transfer of pest organisms: ballast water, hull fouling and sea chests (water-intake recesses in the hull). While ballast water is widely considered as the major present-day mechanism for the global dispersal of NIMS, hull fouling is likely to be particularly important for translocation within New Zealand and may be significant even at local scales. Vessel sea chests can harbour a range of NIMS, including adult life-stages, and are a potential mechanism for the spread of pest organisms directly from infested international source regions to high-value conservation areas around the New Zealand coast. There is a variety of other actual and potential pathways that may be important in the spread of marine pests to and around New Zealand. However, reliable and sufficiently detailed information for many pathways is difficult to obtain, even at a regional scale. This suggests that future effort needs to concentrate on identifying pathways that are of greatest importance in the transfer of NIMS, using a structured, risk-based approach |

impact of mobile fishing gear on benthic habitat and the implications for fisheries management This paper attempts to examine the issue of fishing gear disturbances of the seabed from a holistic perspective. The mechanisms by which mobile gear impacts the seabed, are considered, as well as the spatial and temporal distribution of this impact in the context of natural disturbances. The selectivity, technical performance, environmental and socio-economic impact of otter trawls is contrasted with other non-bottom contacting fishing technologies. The seabed has long been protected by various national and international agreements and treaties, however these have rarely, if ever, been effective. Various management alternatives to mitigate the adverse effects of bottom contacting fisheries are therefore discussed |

Impacts of trawling and scallop dredging on benthic habitats and communities / Over the last two decades, concerns about the impact of towed fishing gears such as trawls and dredges on benthic habitats and organisms have increased. This publication reviews the most recent experimental studies of the impact of towed fishing gears on benthic communities. Otter trawls, beam trawls and scallop dredges are likely to have different physical impacts on the sea bed owing to their different catching techniques. The most noticeable physical effect of otter trawling is the furrow created by the doors. Beam trawling and scallop dredging cause a flattening of irregular bottom topography by eliminating natural features. The long-term effects of fishing activities have not been investigated although several studies provide clear evidence of short-term consequences. The difficulty in conducting impact studies that produce clear conclusions stems mainly from the complexity and natural variability of benthic communities |

invasive crab in the South Atlantic Bight friend or foe? / The green porcelain crab, Petrolisthes armatus, has recently invaded oyster reefs of the South Atlantic Bight at mean densities of up to several thousand individuals m-2. Despite the crab's tremendous densities and wide-spread occurrence, its population dynamics, the reasons for its success, and its ecological impacts have remained unknown. We used field monitoring in two estuaries of coastal Georgia to assess spatial and temporal patterns of distribution, demographics, reproduction, and effects on native crabs. We used field and mesocosm experiments with constructed oyster reef communities of varying native species richness and adult porcelain crab additions to assess why the invader is successful and how it impacts native species and communities. We found P. armatus distributed throughout the estuaries, primarily in the lower regions and low intertidal. Sex ratios were 1:1 throughout the year. During warmer months mean densities ranged from 1,000-11,000 crabs m-2, 20-90% of mature females were gravid, and numerous recruits were present. Despite decreases in density of 64->99% in the winter, populations rebounded in the spring. Maximum mean densities were 37 times the highest densities ever recorded and population fecundity exceeded that of the native range by an order of magnitude, but correlations did not show significant negative effects of P. armatus on native crabs. Field experiments suggested that invasion was successful due to tremendous recruitment overwhelming biotic resistance by native species richness or predation. The crab only needed structure to invade, but the presence of adult conspecifics significantly enhanced recruitment (i.e., intraspecific invasional meltdown). We documented several impacts on native biota, including the (1) suppression of oyster growth, benthic algal biomass, native crab recruitment, and native goby densities and the (2) enhancement of bivalve recruitment, macroalgal cover, and survivorship of oyster drills. We did not, though, see an effect on native taxonomic richness. The large direct and indirect effects of P. armatus on growth, survivorship, and recruitment of virtually all of the most common native species on oyster reefs in the short-term (4-12 weeks) and at relatively low experimental densities (750-1500 crabs m-2) imply considerable long-term consequences for a major hard-substrate habitat of the South Atlantic Bight |

Managing sea cucumber fisheries with an ecosystem approach / "Sea cucumbers are important resources for coastal livelihoods in more than 40 countries. Sadly, widespread overexploitation of wild stocks risks biodiversity loss and the long-term viability of fisheries. Spawned from an FAO international workshop of experts, this document presents a 'roadmap' to guide fishery managers in choosing appropriate regulatory measures and management actions for sea cucumber fisheries. It elaborates on their use, limitations and modes of implementation, with Examples and lessons learned from various fisheries. Achieving sustainable management of sea cucumber fisheries requires an ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF), precautionary regulations, improved enforcement and stronger commitment of fishery managers and policy-makers"--P.

Microzooplankton composition and dynamics in Lake Erie Microzooplankton composition and dynamics (growth and grazing rates) was examined in coastal and offshore Lake Erie including sites within Old Woman Creek (OWC) National Estuarine Research Reserve from May, 2003 to September, 2005. The microzooplankton community was composed primarily of ciliates and rotifers in the coastal sites, while a shift from rotifers to dynoflagellates was observed in the offshore sites. Choreotrichs and oligotrichs were the most commonly encountered ciliates, exhibited the highest growth rates, and were responsible for a large portion of microzooplankton-secondary production (ca. 30%) on average. Microzooplankton community growth rates ranged from 0.12 to 1.02 d-1 and 0.1 to 0.95 d-1 in coastal and offshore sites, respectively, and their growth was a prerequisite for measurable herbivory rates at the community level. Grazing rates measured via serial dilution revealed microzooplankton consumed 81% of phytoplankton primary production on average as well as portions of phytoplankton standing stock. Overall, microzooplankton herbivory is a major factor in controlling phytoplankton primary production in coastal and offshore Lake Erie and their contribution to secondary production is equal to that of meso- and macrozooplankton |

Mortality of fish escaping trawl gears / Selective fishing has a large potential to reduce bycatch and discards, but it can be justified only if significant numbers of escaping fish survive. Many factors affect the survival of fish escaping from fishing gears and few studies have adequately explained the full range of stress, injury and mortality that can occur when fish escape from trawl codends under commercial fishing conditions. There are various options available to improve the survival of escapees. Installing escape panels or other sorting devices at strategic positions in a fishing gear can enhance escape and the survival of juveniles and non-target species. Facilitating the voluntary escape of fish through various constructional and operational solutions would increase the likelihood of their survival. In some cases, use of other fishing methods may be an appropriate approach to reducing unaccounted mortality associated with escape |

New England cod fishing industry and maritime dimensions of the American Revolution In order to get at the linkages between the worlds of commerce and the way of war I triangulated data culled from merchant ledgers, ship's log books, customs records, shipping records, diaries, newspapers, and military service records. Drawing on these sources, the dissertation defends a two-fold argument. First, economic competition between vested interests in the British Empire, principally New England fish merchants, West Country fish merchants, and West Indian sugar planters, resulted in a series of commercial regulations and naval police actions aimed at restricting New England's economic expansion. These regulations and actions culminated in the British state's fateful decision in 1775 to close the New England cod fishing industry, which ultimately motivated colonists to go to war. Second, fishermen and fish merchants played key roles in winning the war. Merchants converted trade routes into military supply lines and transformed their fishing vessels into warships. Fishermen armed and manned the first American navy, served in the first coast guard units, manned privateers, and fought on land. These multi-faceted efforts helped secure American independence |

New Zealand non-migratory galaxiid fishes recovery plan, 2003-13 / Non-migratory galaxiid fishes (Galaxias spp.) occur throughout New Zealand, although individual species generally have very restricted distributions. Species have been declining in both the number of populations and abundance due to a variety of causes such as changes in land use, impact of introduced species, and water abstraction. Recovery actions are addressed for the following endemic non-migratory galaxias: flathead galaxias (Galaxias depressiceps), dusky galaxias (Galaxias pullus), Eldon's galaxias (Galaxias eldoni), roundhead galaxias (Galaxias anomalus), Gollum galaxias (Galaxias gollumoides), dwarf galaxias (Galaxias divergens), bignose galaxias (Galaxias macronasus), upland longjaw galaxias (Galaxias prognathus), lowland longjaw galaxias (Galaxias cobitinis), Galaxias sp. D (or Pool Burn galaxias), Teviot galaxias, southern flathead galaxias, northern galaxias, dwarf inanga (Galaxias gracilis), and dune lakes galaxias (Galaxias sp.). The actions in this plan focus on designating and protecting key populations for each galaxiid. Further actions include advocacy tasks to increase both iwi and general public awareness, participation in recovery work and research to determine critical biological aspects required for recovery |

Patterns of species richness in the high seas / Maps of the species richness in the high seas are presented, which are based on the distribution of individual species of marine invertebrate and vertebrate groups, complemented with maps of genera and families of invertebrates and fishes. High seas refers to marine areas outside the 200-mile exclusive economic zones (EEZs) and continental shelf areas, or other described national jurisdictions. We considered known latitudinal and longitudinal gradients of the distribution of species richness (declining from the equator, and from a global center of species richness about Indonesia) where appropriate. Maps of the known locations of cold-water corals and seamounts are also presented. There is suggestive evidence that cold-water coral are associated with seamounts. If validated, this would allow predicting the existence of far more cold-water corals sites than so far documented. Both habitat types are threatened by trawling. Lastly, a map of the distribution of threatened non-fish vertebrates is provided. Together, these maps indicate marine biodiversity in the high seas to be richly patterned, with some of these patterns helping to identify areas in need of protection such as seamounts, and the high seas of the Southwest Pacific |

Population dynamics of the raggedtooth shark (Carcharias taurus) along the east coast of South Africa The C. taurus population exhibited complex stock structuring, by size and sex. Competitive shore anglers fished an estimated 37, 820 fishing days.year-1 (95% C.I. = 28, 281 - 47, 359 days.year-1) for sharks, and caught 1764 (95% C.I. = 321 - 3207) C. taurus. Although released alive, post-release mortality ranged from 3.85% for young-of-the-year sharks to 18.46% for adult sharks. Between 1984 and 2004, a total of 3471 C. taurus were tagged. In all, 302-tagged sharks (8.7%) were recaptured. Both juvenile (< 1.8 m TL) and adult sharks (> 1.8 m TL) displayed philopatric behaviour for specific parts of their ranges, including gestating and parturition areas. Significant differences were observed in the percentage of recaptures between the different tag types, tagging programs, individual taggers and capture methods used to tag sharks. The annual tag retention rate for juvenile sharks, 94.19% (95% C.I. = 80.68% - 100.00%) was significantly higher than for adult sharks, estimated at 29.00% (95% C.I. = 6.76% - 64.39%). Tag reporting rates, from fishermen varied both spatially and temporally from 0.28 (95% C.I. = 0.00 - 0.63) to 0.77 (95% C.I. = 0.56 - 0.97). Associated tag wound damage and biofouling growth indicated that B-type tags were a suitable tag type for use on C. taurus, whereas C-type tags were not. The CJS bias-adjusted estimate for juvenile survival was 0.456 (95% C.I. = 0.367 - 0.516) and for adult sharks, 0.865 (95% C.I. = 0.795 - 0.915). From 1984 to 2004 the mean bias-adjusted population size for juvenile sharks was estimated at 3506 (95% C.I. = 2433 - 4350) and for adult sharks, 5899 (95% C.I. = 7216 - 11904). Trends in abundance over the 20-year study period indicated a stable, healthy population |

Population genetics of Boise Basin bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) We analyzed the population genetic structure of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in the Boise River basin, Idaho. We determined the influence of contemporary (including anthropogenic) and historic factors on genetic structure, taking into account existing data on bull trout habitat patches in this basin. We tested three models of the organization of genetic structure in this system, where genetic structure would: a) parallel the stream hierarchy, b) correspond to habitat patch structure, or c) follow a pattern of isolation by distance. We found strongest support for the isolation by distance model. In addition, we found weak population differentiation within the Boise system (FST = 0.064), relative to other similarly scaled systems containing bull trout. Frequent disturbance may be responsible for the strong isolation by distance yet weak overall levels of population subdivision in this system. In addition, we found that the South Fork was a genetic outlier from the remainder of the Boise system and may have been colonized at a separate time than the Middle and North Forks. At least one dam (Kirby Dam) has noticeably reduced levels of gene flow. These results show that distinct patterns of genetic structure may occur in separate portions of a species' range, especially at the range extremes. Based on these results, we suggest the South Fork should be treated separately from the remainder of the basin. Bull trout in Mores Creek should be protected but our results suggest that this population may be comprised of adults entrained by Arrowrock Dam and unable to return to natal streams to spawn and are thus spawning in the only available habitat. Connectivity should be restored whenever possible in cases where human activities have eliminated migratory corridors |

Population genetics of Death Valley pupfishes (Cyprinodontidae:Cyprinodon spp.) and the identification of a new retrotransposable element family Study of the genetic relationships and evolutionary histories of pupfish populations (Cyprinodontidae: Cyprinodon spp.) from the remnant aquatic habitats of Death Valley was approached by exploring the genetic structure and divergence within and among populations using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA markers. The findings of these studies illustrate the influences of population size and isolation time in the divergence of small, fragmented populations largely via genetic drift. The information revealed in this study has implications for assessing priorities in the conservation of the unique evolutionary heritage among populations of the Death Valley pupfishes. A new retrotransposable element family was identified and characterized. This family of genetic elements was uncovered during a search of the pupfish genome for transposable elements to be used as molecular markers for population analyses. The description of this element family, named "Swimmer 1" (SW1), provides new insights into the evolution of long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) in vertebrates. Therefore, a full characterization of the SW1 element family was undertaken in the Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) as well as in the pupfish genome. The Japanese medaka is a model organism widely used for genetic and developmental biology studies |

potential sensitivity of marine mammals to mining and exploration in the Great Australian Bight Marine Park Marine Mammal Protection Zone an independent review and risk assessment report to Environment Australia / This document contains an independent review of available information related to the sensitivities of marine mammals known to occur in the Great Australian Bight Marine Park (whales, dolphins, and sea lions) to activities conducted by the gas and petroleum industry during the course of their operations (including exploration, production, and decommissioning). A risk assessment was undertaken to determine the potential risks associated with possible future petroleum activities occurring within the Marine Mammal Protection Zone of the Great Australian Bight Marine Park (Commonwealth Waters) for incorporation into a review of the current management plan for the marine park, due to commence in 2003. Despite a significant number of publications on this topic, it was the general conclusion of the authors that there is still insufficient definitive data to determine, with any degree of certainty, what is likely to occur should petroleum operations be allowed in the Marine Mammal Protection Zone under the next management plan. In the context of the importance of the area for the recovery and conservation of the Australian sea lion and the southern right whale, application of the precautionary principle, as defined in the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act), would support the continuation of the current ban on such activities until significantly more information is available demonstrating that these activities would not significantly impact upon southern right whales in this critical aggregation habitat and Australian sea lions in the coastal area |

Progress in reducing the habitat impact of trawls and dredges This report describes a project aimed at reducing the impact of trawls and dredges on the sea bed. Model tests of a variety of flexible devices were performed, exploring the potential of using hydrodynamic forces to control trawl shape and height in the water column. Utility in midwater and off-bottom fisheries was demonstrated and some devices showed potential in improving trawl selectivity. A second phase of the project focused on the development of a sea scallop dredge aimed at reducing the habitat disturbance associated with that fishery. Sea trials of a novel dredge design were performed to improve its operation and catch rate |

Recovery history of greenback cutthroat trout population characteristics, hatchery involvement, and bibliography / The greenback cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki stomias) is native to the mountain and foothill waters of the South Platte and Arkansas river basins in Colorado. This taxon declined rapidly beginning near the turn of the century and was listed under the Endangered Species Act in 1973. We assembled all available information from a variety of sources to document recovery efforts from 1957 to 1999. For each greenback cutthroat trout population, we noted (1) the characteristics of recovery waters and dates of population discovery or introduction; (2) fish abundance estimates; (3) analyses of genetic purity; (4) salmonid fauna, removal efforts, and reinvasions; and (5) dates, sources, and numbers of fish used to establish populations. For each hatchery used to assist recovery, we noted (1) sources and numbers of fish delivered to them; (2) sources, sex ratios, and production of fish used to create particular year classes; and (3) dates, numbers, and sizes of hatchery fish shipped to establish wild populations or supplement other hatchery stocks |

Remote sensing of wetlands in Yellowstone National Park As part of the Amphibian Research and Monitoring Initiative, satellite remote sensing was used to identify potential wetland amphibian habitat in Yellowstone National Park. Landsat Thematic Mapper imagery was combined with ancillary predictors of wetland occurrence including habitat type, cover type, landform type, bedrock geology, soil attributes, terrain measures, and climate data. Classification trees were used to predict the likelihood of palustrine wetland occurrence across the Yellowstone landscape. Wetland maps generated by this study are intended to address shortcomings of the National Wetland Inventory in Yellowstone; namely, errors-of-omission and the temporally invariant nature of the inventory. Relative importance of Thematic Mapper imagery, image texture information, terrain measures, and thematic spatial data were assessed by comparing the accuracy of classification trees trained with different subsets of predictors. In general, classification trees using all available predictors exhibited the greatest accuracy. Classification tree structure was similar in models generated with satellite imagery from different years. Also, similar accuracy rates were found across years. The results indicate that the method could be applied to annual wetland monitoring. Average producer's accuracy for the palustrine wetland class was approximately 0.92. Five palustrine wetland classes were discriminated with an average overall accuracy of approximately 0.83. A wetland map derived from a 1 August, 2003 Thematic Mapper image was field-verified in late-summer and early-autumn of 2003. The classification tree methodology appears to be sensitive to within-season wetland condition and yearly wetland variability. Satellite remote sensing located wetlands not mapped by the National Wetland Inventory and also identified upland sites erroneously classified as wetland. Methods developed by this study are general enough to be applied in other physiographic settings and should prove to be useful to amphibian conservation efforts over large geographic extents |

review of methodologies for mitigating incidental catch of seabirds in New Zealand fisheries / This report presents the results of the seabird component of a global review of mitigation methods aimed at reducing mortalities of seabirds, marine mammals and reptiles, and corals from interactions with fishing gear in New Zealand fisheries (and fisheries that operate using similar methodologies). The application of these mitigation methods to New Zealand fisheries is assessed, recommendations made for the fisheries management, and areas for further research in New Zealand identified. Factors influencing the appropriateness and effectiveness of a mitigation device include the fishery, vessel, location, seabird assemblage present and time of year (i.e. season). Realistically a combination of measures is required to reduce or eliminate seabird bycatch, and even within a fishery individual vessel refinement of mitigation techniques is often required in order to maximise their effectiveness. Retention or strategic management of offal and discards are recommended as the most effective measure to reducing seabird bycatch in longline and trawl fisheries. Other recommended methods for both demersal and pelagic longlining include paired bird-scaring lines, line-weighting and night-setting (in some fisheries). Offal and discard management, combined with paired bird-scaring lines, and reducing the time the net is on or near the surface, are likely to be the most effective regimes to mitigate seabird interactions with the warp cables and nets in trawl fisheries. Urgent investigation is needed into more effective measures at reducing seabird interactions with the trawl nets |

role of the Hauraki Gulf Cable Protection Zone in protecting exploited fish species : de facto marine reserve? / The Cable Protection Zone (CPZ) in northeastern New Zealand's Hauraki Gulf protects a large area of seabed from fishing and anchoring. We assessed whether the CPZ has similar conservation benefits to marine reserves; in particular, whether exploited fish species are more abundant inside the CPZ. Baited underwater video (BUV) was used to assess the abundance of carnivorous fish at stations inside and outside the CPZ in February and October 2004. Sampling was stratified between shallow soft-sediment (20-30 m depth) and deep reef (40-60 m) habitats. Carnivorous fish species were recorded in lower numbers and lower diversity on soft-sediment habitats (nine species) than on deep reef habitats (21 species). Fish assemblage structure on deep reefs was strongly influenced by depth and substratum type, whereas management status (i.e. inside v. outside the CPZ) had no detectable effect. There was also no effect of management status on the size and abundance of snapper (Pagrus auratus), the most heavily targeted fish species in the region. The numbers of legal-sized blue cod (Parapercis colias) tended to be higher at stations inside the CPZ. The overall lack of response of exploited species to protection in the CPZ may be due to the limited time of protection (< 4 years), illegal fishing observed in the CPZ, and/or a limited availability of habitat necessary to hold relatively mobile exploited species. As for marine reserves, CPZs are only likely to be effective in protecting exploited species if they contain areas of suitable habitat and the notake status of the area is enforced |

Sampling surface and subsurface particle-size distributions in wadable gravel- and cobble-bed streams for analyses in sediment transport, hydraulics, and streambed monitoring / This document provides guidance for sampling surface and subsurface sediment from wadable gravel-and cobble-bed streams. After a short introduction to streams types and classifications in gravel-bed rivers, the document explains the field and laboratory measurement of particle sizes and the statistical analysis of particle-size distributions. Analysis of particle parameters, including shape, density, and bulk density are also discussed. The document describes the spatial variability of bed-material particle sizes as well as the horizontal and vertical structure of particle deposits. The discussion of sampling procedures and equipment helps the user to make appropriate selections that support the sampling objective. Sample-size estimates may be obtained from empirical data or computed from statistical relationships between sample size and accuracy. The document explains a variety of methods, their usage and prerequisites. A detailed discussion of sampling schemes guides the user to select appropriate spatial sampling patterns necessary to produce representative samples |

Sea cucumbers : a global review of fisheries and trade / The papers also discuss some of the factors behind the unsustainable use of sea cucumbers and the role and potential benefits of alternative management measures, such as the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). The lack of capacity to gather the basic information needed for management plans, weak enforcement, the high demand from international markets and the pressure exerted from resource-dependent communities figure high as important factors responsible for the critical status of sea cucumber fisheries worldwide. Authors concur on the need for immediate actions to stop the trend of sequential depletion of species if we are to conserve stocks biodiversity and sustain the ecological, social and economic benefits of these resources |

Selected interactions between phytoplankton, zooplankton, and the microbial food web microcosm experiments in marine and limnic habitats / In my first experiment (Katechakis et al. 2005) I investigated if mixotrophs influence energy transfer efficiency to higher trophic levels differently than predicted for purely phototrophic organisms. My results indicate that compared to phototrophic specialists mixotrophs may enhance transfer efficiency towards herbivores at low light conditions and in situations when limiting nutrients are linked to bacteria and to the picoplankton. Additionally, the results suggest that mixotrophs may have a stabilizing effect on variations in trophic cascade strength caused by perturbations to light and nutrient supply ratios. My second experiment (Katechakis and Stibor 2005a) served as a first step towards analyzing if the results gained from the first experiment have any ecological relevance in situ, that is, if mixotrophs in nature-like communities can gain enough importance to relevantly influence transfer efficiency and system stability. Competition experiments revealed that mixotrophs may invade and suppress plankton communities that consist of purely phototrophic and purely phagotrophic specialists at low nutrient conditions while high nutrient supplies prevent mixotrophs from successfully invading such communities. In systems where mixotrophs suppressed their specialist competitors they indeed had a habitat-ameliorating effect for higher trophic levels, gauged in terms of plankton food quality |

Shortfinned eel found in the acidic Whangaehu River, Mt Ruapehu / An eel specimen found on the bank of the Whangaehu River, Mt Ruapehu, in late October/November was examined to determine its species and age, together with its gender and sexual maturity, and also to assess its probable movement pattern prior to death. The location at which the eel was found is significant because it is about 6 km upstream of the Tokiahuru/Mangaehuehu confluence, which used to be a traditional eel fishery location for the local iwi Ngati Rangi, and is the first part of the Whangaehu River where its acid volcano-fed waters are significantly diluted. The specimen was shown to be a subadult female shortfinned eel (Anguilla australis), 795 mm long and 1526 g in weight. Age was estimated from sagittal otoliths to be about 31 years in freshwater, and it had lived in a limiting habitat in the last 13 years. Although "average" water quality has probably improved in the Whangaehu River above the Tokiahuru confluence since the 1995/96 Ruapehu eruption, any causal relationship between that and the eel's location may be coincidental |

Soil nematode communities in grasslands : effects of plant species identity and diversity / There was a succession of the nematode fauna during the eight years after establishment of the experimental grassland, especially indicated by the increase in maturity index of the nematode fauna. The results highlight the need for long-term experiments to reveal successional trends in soil nematode communities after cessation of agriculture. The increase of plant feeders with time, the slow colonization rate and the enhanced abundance of fungal feeders in soil under forbs have implications for nature restoration of former agricultural land |

Spawning abundance of chinook salmon in the Taku River in 2003 / A cooperative study involving the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, and the Taku River Tlingit First Nation was conducted to estimate the number of spawning Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha in the Taku River in 2003 with a mark-recapture experiment. Fish were captured at Canyon Island on the lower Taku River with fish wheels from May through August and were individually marked with back-sewn, solid-core spaghetti tags. All tagged fish were also batch marked with an opercle punch plus removal of the left axillary appendage. Sampling on the spawning grounds in tributaries was used to estimate the fraction of the population that had been marked. The estimated spawning abundance of small Chinook salmon (< 400 mm long; mid-eye to fork of tail) was 3,489 (SE = 1,052). Spawning abundance of medium-size Chinook salmon (401-659 mm) was estimated to be 16,780 (SE = 2,274). Finally, spawning abundance of large-size fish (>= 660 mm) was estimated to be 36,435 (SE = 6,705), and the estimated total of all fish was 56,704 (SE = 7,158). The sum of the peak aerial survey counts of large spawning Chinook salmon conducted at five index tributaries of the Taku River was 16% of the mark-recapture estimate. Age 1.3 fish (1998 brood year) constituted an estimated 40% of the spawning population, followed by age 1.2 fish (1999 brood year), which constituted an estimated 29% of the population |
