| chronic inflammatory cells with epithelial cell characteristics in teleost fishes. | certain cells that participate in the chronic inflammatory response of teleost fishes have many features typical of epithelioid cells of mammals. such features include high metabolic activity, frequent phagolysosomes, and cytoplasmic interdigitations between adjacent cells; however, the epithelioid granulomas formed in response to certain diseases in teleost fishes also have several features associated with epithelial cells. cases of ulcerative mycosis or acid-fast bacterial infection in atlanti ... | 1989 | 2686148 |
| form and function in the unique inner ear of a teleost: the silver perch (bairdiella chrysoura). | members of the teleost family sciaenidae show significant variation in inner ear and swim bladder morphology as well as in the relationship between the swim bladder and the inner ear. in the silver perch (bairdiella chrysoura), a stellifer-group sciaenid, both the saccular and utricular otoliths are enlarged relative to those in other teleosts. additionally, its swim bladder is two-chambered, and the anterior chamber surrounds the otic capsule and terminates lateral to the saccules. structure an ... | 2004 | 15236234 |
| measurement of an individual silver perch bairdiella chrysoura sound pressure level in a field recording. | simultaneous audio and video were recorded of a silver perch bairdiella chrysoura producing its characteristic drumming sound in the field. the background noise contribution to the total sound pressure level is estimated using sounds that occurred between the pulses of the silver perch sound. this background contribution is subtracted from the total sound to give an estimate of the sound pressure level of the individual fish. a silver perch source level in the range 128-135 db (re: 1 micropa) is ... | 2004 | 15603164 |
| aphanomyces invadans and ulcerative mycosis in estuarine and freshwater fish in florida. | in the spring of 1998, the florida fish and wildlife research institute received numerous reports of lesioned or ulcerated fish primarily from the st. lucie estuary on the southeast coast of florida, an area known since the late 1970s for lesions of the ulcerative mycosis (um) type. from these and archived reports, as well as others received from different areas of florida, we documented that diseased specimens had randomly distributed skin ulcers (usually reddened or hemorrhagic) with raised ir ... | 2007 | 18236628 |
| mycobacteria isolated from chesapeake bay fish. | mycobacteriosis in fish can result in ulcers, emaciation, and in some cases death. mycobacteria have been previously isolated from a variety of chesapeake bay fish species, and the current study was designed to identify potential host specificity and location fidelity of mycobacterial isolates. mycobacteria were isolated from wild fish of the chesapeake bay collected from the upper bay, the choptank river, herring bay, the chicamacomico river, the pocomoke river and the potomac river in 2003-200 ... | 2010 | 19909394 |
| [evaluation of ten fish species to be included as part of renal diet, due to their protein, phosphorus and fatty acids content]. | because renal disease is highly complex, its nutritional treatment is complicated and many foods are restricted, including fish because its phosphorus content. the aim of the present study was to analyze ten fillet fish species, commonly consumed in mexico (cyprinus carpio carpio, ophichthus rex, symphurus elongatus, eucinostomus entomelas, chirostoma patzcuaro, bairdiella chrysoura, salmo salar oreochromis urolepis hornorum, sphyraena guachancho, istiophorus albicans), to determine their phosph ... | 2012 | 23610899 |
| first record of paratenic hosts of the swimbladder nematode anguillicola crassus in north america. | anguillicola crassus is a non-native parasite of the american eel, anguilla rostrata. since being introduced into north america, the nematode has spread rapidly across the range of a. rostrata, but paratenic hosts, which may facilitate parasite dispersion, have yet to be identified in the region. we investigated infection of larval a. crassus in 261 fish specimens belonging to 23 species and 12 orders collected from estuarine habitats in south carolina (salinities 0-9 ppt) and nova scotia (10-18 ... | 2015 | 26125318 |
| a new species of homalometron (digenea: apocreadiidae) from fishes in the northern gulf of mexico. | homalometron palmeri n. sp. is described and reported from the following fishes in the northern gulf of mexico: micropogonias undulatus, sciaenops ocellatus, bairdiella chrysoura, pogonias cromis, fundulus grandis, fundulus similis, and eucinostomus argenteus. this species historically has been misidentified as homalometron pallidum by some, and treated as homalometron sp. by others. the new species differs from h. manteri by having a smaller body size, relatively longer postcecal space ranging ... | 2013 | 22924927 |
| mercury concentrations in the prey of apex piscivores from a large subtropical estuary. | estuaries are important ecosystems for mercury methylation and accumulation, yet few studies have quantified mercury levels in prey species that expose large estuarine piscivores to contamination. we measured mercury concentrations in key prey species from the indian river lagoon, florida, usa, to characterize variability and assess the spatial distribution of mercury levels throughout the estuary. mean mercury concentrations ranged from 0.015mg/kg in mugil cephalus to 0.222mg/kg in bairdiella c ... | 2015 | 25837774 |
| [fatty acids in different edible fish species from mexico]. | different biotic and abiotic factors determine the fatty acid (fa) composition of fish tissues and organs. this information is useful for humans due to the fact that fish consumption is associated with health benefits. the aim of the present study was to identify the variation in the concentration of fatty acids, according to different factors, among ten edible marine fish species in mexico, collected from june to december 2009 in the largest fish market in mexico city: euthynnus alletteratus, s ... | 2013 | 24432548 |
| day and night trophic variations of dominant fish species in a lagoon influenced by freshwater seeps. | the aim of this study was to determine the trophic structure and nycthemeral variations in the diet of dominant fish species (ariopsis felis, bairdiella chrysoura, micropogonias undulatus, eucinostomus gula, eucinostomus argenteus, lagodon rhomboides and sphoeroides testudineus) in celestun lagoon, a biosphere reserve located in the southern gulf of mexico, and influenced by freshwater seeps. a total of 1473 stomachs were analysed and nine trophic groups were recorded. bray-curtis analyses with ... | 2013 | 23331138 |
