| reproductive aspects of the flyingfish, hirundichthys affinis from the northeastern coastal waters of brazil. | the epipelagic flyingfish, hirundichthys affinis is a major artisanal fishery resource from the northeastern coastal waters of brazil. however, biological information about this species has been poorly documented. this paper presents data on the length-weight relationship, sex ratio, length at first sexual maturity, gonadal development and fecundity of h. affinis sampled from the coastal waters of rio grande do norte, brazil. the total body length and weight for both sexes ranged from 23.4 to 29 ... | 2015 | 25945638 |
| spatial and temporal variation in artisanal catches of dolphinfish coryphaena hippurus off north-eastern brazil. | the sampling of fish from the artisanal fleet operating with surface lines off north-eastern brazil was carried out between 1998 and 2000. generalized linear models (glms) were used to standardize mean abundance indices using catch and fishing effort data on dolphinfish coryphaena hippurus and to identify abundance trends in time and space, using 1215 surface line deployments. a standard relative abundance index (catch per unit effort, cpue) was estimated for the most frequent vessels used in th ... | 2015 | 27500372 |
