The distribution of the branchial nerves in the gills of the perch (Perca fluviatilis) and the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was studied. Two nerve branches supply each gill arch: the first arch receives a posttrematic branch from the glossopharyngeal nerve and a pretrematic branch from the vagus. The second, third, and fourth arches receive a posttrematic and a pretrematic branch from the vagus. Within each arch the posttrematic branch runs on the anterior side and innervates the filaments of the anterior hemibranch. The pretrematic branch runs on the posterior side and innervates the filaments of the posterior hemibranch. In addition, the posttrematic branches innervate the striated muscles and carry the sympathetic fibers for both hemibranchs. The taste buds and gill rakers are supplied by internal branches of both the pretrematic and posttrematic nerves.

AbstractThe aim of this study was the determination of the susceptibility of Polish farmed redfin perch (Perca fluviatilis L.) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum) to experimental infection with haematopoietic necrosis virus (EHNV). A bath challenge model was tested at two temperature ranges: 13-15°C and 20-22°C. After 7 d, the first clinical signs and mortality were observed in fish kept at these temperatures. Significantly more mortality cases were reported in the redfin perch population, reaching a maximum of 24% compared with 12% in the rainbow trout group at 20-22°C. EHNV was reisolated from redfin perch and rainbow trout tissue in cell culture and the infection was confirmed by a molecular method and histopathology during the duration of the experiment. This study revealed that fish from Polish farms can be susceptible to EHNV even at lower temperatures.

To compare the efficacy of stocking fry and yearling rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, into reservoirs of south-western Australia, 20 000 fry and 1400 yearlings were stocked into Lake Navarino and sampled over a five-month period. Oncorhynchus mykiss fry were collected via seine-nets within 24 h of stocking; however, within 60 h of stocking, no O. mykiss fry could be located, suggesting the total mortality of fry. Within 24 h of stocking, O. mykiss fry were present in the guts of Perca fluviatilis and Salmo trutta. A simple risk analysis of stocking O. mykiss fry, based on gut contents and relative abundances of predatory fishes, indicated that P. fluviatilis has a relative predatory impact on O. mykiss fry more than 100 times greater than other fishes. Perca fluviatilis also has a greater relative predatory impact on freshwater crayfishes than either species of trout. The results demonstrate the advantages of stocking yearling O. mykiss in impounded waters dominated by P. fluviatilis. Existing data of relative abundances of predatory fishes and relative predatory impacts can be used by managers as a powerful and simple tool to assess strategies for stocking fish and the application of other management options.
