| heavy metal contaminants in tissues of the garfish, belone belone l., 1761, and the bluefish, pomatomus saltatrix l., 1766, from turkey waters. | levels of contaminants in fish are of particular interest because of the potential risk to humans who consume them. fish samples were collected through the coastal waters of turkey and the contents of cadmium, cobalt, chrome, copper, iron, manganese, nickel, zinc and lead in the liver and muscle tissues were determined. among the metals analyzed, copper, zinc and iron were the most abundant in the different tissues while cadmium and lead were the least abundant both in belone belone and pomatomu ... | 2009 | 18784894 |
| survey of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus in wild fishes in the southeastern black sea. | species diversity in the black sea ecosystem has been declining rapidly over the last 2 decades. to assess the occurrence and distribution of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (vhsv) in various wild fish species, a wild marine fish survey was carried out in 2009, 2010, and 2011. the pooled or individual samples of kidney, liver, and spleen of 5025 specimens, belonging to 17 fish species, were examined virologically using cell culture. the cells showing cytopathic effects (cpe) were subjected ... | 2014 | 24991737 |
| temporal and spatial variability of pelagic wild fish assemblages around atlantic bluefin tuna thunnus thynnus farms in the eastern adriatic sea. | the abundance and size structure of wild fishes aggregated around the sea-cages of two commercial thunnus thynnus farms, including control locations, were assessed and compared over a 1 year period. the t. thynnus farms were located in the eastern adriatic sea, offshore of the islands of ugljan and brač. fish assemblages were evaluated through visual census using scuba at 2 month intervals at two sites within each farm. the data suggest that wild fish assemblages at the study sites differed grea ... | 2011 | 21235547 |
| toxic metals in tissues of fishes from the black sea and associated human health risk exposure. | the anthropogenic activities in the black sea area are responsible for toxic metal contamination of sea food products. in this study, several toxic metals: cadmium, lead, nickel, chromium, and copper were quantified in different tissues (digestive tract, muscle, skeleton, skin) of nine fish species (neogobius melanostomus, belone belone, solea solea, trachurus mediterraneus ponticus, sardina pilchardus, engraulis encrasicolus, pomatomus saltatrix, sprattus sprattus, scorpaena porcus) by using at ... | 2017 | 28127691 |
| motion-driven flow in an unusual piscine nasal region. | fishes have several means of moving water to effect odorant transport to their olfactory epithelium ('olfactory flow'). here we show that olfactory flow in the adult garpike belone belone (belonidae, teleostei), a fish with an unusual nasal region, can be generated by its motion relative to water (swimming, or an external current, or both). we also show how the unusual features of the garpike's nasal region influence olfactory flow. these features comprise a triangular nasal cavity in which the ... | 2016 | 27449820 |
| first detailed data on metazoan parasites of the rare species short beaked garfish belone svetovidovi (teleostei: belonidae) from tunisian coast, central mediterranean sea. | forty five specimens of the short beaked garfish belone svetovidovi, a rare belonid species largely confused with the garfish belone belone from tunisian coast sea were examined for metazoan parasite. nine metazoan parasites species were identified: one monogenean (axine sp.), 4 digeneans (lecithostaphylus retroflexus, tergestia acanthocephala, aponurus laguncula and condylocotyla pilodora metacercaria), one copepod (bomolochus bellones), one isopod (irona nana), one acanthocephalan (telosentis ... | 2016 | 27262955 |
| morphometrics and levels of infections of digeneans in belonid fish species off the coast of tunisia. | three species of belonid fish, belone belone gracilis lowe, 1839, belone svetovidovi collette & parin, 1970 and tylosurus acus imperialis (rafinesque, 1810), caught off the eastern tunisian coast were infected with eight species of digenea. among these, four species were commonly found in b. b. gracilis and are new host records for b. svetovidovi. they are: lecithostaphylus retroflexus (molin, 1859), tergestia acanthocephala (stossich, 1887) stossich, 1899 and aponurus laguncula looss, 1907 in t ... | 2016 | 26278880 |

| assessment of trace metal concentrations in muscle tissue of certain commercially available fish species from kayseri, turkey. | regular consumption of fish has been widely recommended by health authorities. however, it is known that some species accumulate high levels of contaminants including heavy metals (e.g., hg, cd, pb, and as). in this study, cu, pb, co, ni, cr, mn, cd, and fe were determined in the muscle tissue of 11 commercially available fish species (sparus auratus, dicentrarchus labrax, mullus barbatus, belone belone, psetta maxima, epinephelus aeneus, salmothymus, soleidae, pomatomus saltatrix, engraulis enc ... | 2014 | 24633787 |
| revisiting de beer's textbook example of heterochrony and jaw elongation in fish: calmodulin expression reflects heterochronic growth, and underlies morphological innovation in the jaws of belonoid fishes. | heterochronic shifts during ontogeny can result in adaptively important innovations and might be initiated by simple developmental switches. understanding the nature of these developmental events can provide insights into fundamental molecular mechanisms of evolutionary change. fishes from the suborder belonoidei display a vast array of extreme craniofacial morphologies that appear to have arisen through a series of heterochronic shifts. we performed a molecular heterochrony study, comparing pos ... | 2014 | 24499543 |

| embryonic and larval development of garpike from the adriatic sea. | although information about embryonic and larval development of garpike, belone belone (linnaeus, 1761), is present in the published literature, the bulk of research concerns garpike from the northeastern atlantic ocean and the baltic sea. the present work describes the embryonic and larval development of garpike, belone belone, from the adriatic sea, and methods used for incubation of fertilized eggs in aquarium conditions. because garpike is, as suggested by some authors, divided into subspecie ... | 2009 | 21392299 |
| osteological development of the garfish (belone belone) larvae. | garfish, belone belone (linnaeus, 1761) is an elongate, slander fish inhabiting the eastern atlantic and mediterranean sea. these fish from the belonidae (actinopterygii) family have important commercial value for croatian fisheries. samples for research were collected from experimental hatching in the novigrad sea. preparation techniques included fixation in buffered formalin, trypsin clearing and staining with alcian blue and alizarin red. as little is known of garfish osteology and bone morph ... | 2009 | 19681833 |
| regional variations in the outer retina of atherinomorpha (beloniformes, atheriniformes, cyprinodontiformes: teleostei): photoreceptors, cone patterns, and cone densities. | the outer retinae of adults of 13 atherinomorph species, representing nine different families, were examined by both light and electron microscopy. the retinae were investigated with respect to photoreceptor types, cone densities, and cone patterns. all data were composed to eye maps. this procedure allows an interspecific comparison of the regional differences within the outer retina among these shallow-water fish. furthermore, for a more detailed pattern analysis nitro-blue tetrazolium chlorid ... | 2003 | 12833370 |
