Karakteristik Ikan Hasil Tangkapan Jaring Insang Hanyut Di Perairan Kelurahan Tanjung Solok Kecamatan Kuala Jambi Kabupaten Tanjung Jabung Timur

Tanjung Solok sub-district is one of the areas in Kuala Jambi which is the landing location for fish. One of the most widely used fishing gear to catch fish is drift gillnets. This study aims to observe the characteristics of fish catches with drift gill nets landed in the Tanjung Solok sub-district. The analysis was carried out descriptively with survey data collection methods and random sampling. The gill mesh used is 4 inches in size. Data collection was carried out on 12 ships with 10 repetitions. The catches that were obtained were threadfin, white pomfret, black pomfret, mackerel, conger eel, flatfish, and dorab wolf-herring with the most catch was 1,143 black pomfret and the smallest catch was 75 conger eel. The diversity index of 1.66 is included in the medium category, while the dominance index is 0.24 in the low category. The length of each fish varies. Based on the research it can be concluded that the characteristics of catches by fish size shows that measure decent overall catch more than 30% and 70% are still in decent size has not been caught

A tale from the middle Paleocene of Denmark: A tube-dwelling predator documented by the ichnofossil Lepidenteron mortenseni n. isp. and its predominant prey, Bobbitichthys n. gen. rosenkrantzi (Macroridae, Teleostei)

The ichnofossil Lepidenteron provides a unique taphonomic window into the life habits of a tube-dwelling predator, probably an eunicid polychaete, and its fish prey. Here we describe a new tube-like ichnofossil Lepidenteron mortenseni n. isp. from the Kerteminde Marl (100–150 m palaeo-water depth) from the Gundstrup gravel pit near Odense, Fyn, Denmark. 110 individual tubes were examined which contain fish remains, including a variety of disarticulated bones and otoliths, by far dominated by a single gadiform taxon referred herein to as Bobbitichthys n. gen. The isolated otoliths here associated with disarticulated gadiform bones have previously been described, from the time equivalent Lellinge Greensand exposed in the Copen-hagen area, as Hymenocephalus rosenkrantzi, a grenadier fish (family Macrouridae). The abundance of associated bones and otoliths in the examined tubes allowed us to reconstruct part of the cranial configuration of Bobbitichthys rosenkrantzi and to tentatively interpret it as a stem macrourid. Bobbitichthys rosenkrantzi represents the earliest grenadier known in the fossil record. Additional, although considerably less abundant, skeletal remains and otoliths have been tentatively referred to a long-fin bonefish (family Pterothrissidae, Pterothrissus? conchaeformis), a viviparous brotula (family Bythitidae, Bidenichthys? lapierrei), a conger eel (family Congridae, possibly belonging to Rhynchoconger angulosus), and another unidentified gadiform.

Microbial Communities Associated with Farmed Genypterus chilensis: Detection in Water Prior to Bacterial Outbreaks Using Culturing and High-Throughput Sequencing

The red conger eel (Genypterus chilensis, Guichenot) is a native species included in the Chilean Aquaculture Diversification Program due to high commercial demand. In the context of intensified farming, prior reports link two disease outbreaks with emerging pathogens in the Vibrio and Tenacibaculum genera. However, the roles remain unclear for the bacterial community and each specific bacterium is associated with the rearing environment for healthy specimens. The success of red conger eel farming therefore warrants research into the bacterial composition of aquaculture conditions and the antimicrobial susceptibilities thereof. This study used culturing methods and high-throughput sequencing to describe the bacterial community associated with water in which G. chilensis was farmed. With culturing methods, the predominant genera were Vibrio (21.6%), Pseudolteromonas (15.7%), Aliivibrio (13.7%), and Shewanella (7.8%). Only a few bacterial isolates showed amylase, gelatinase, or lipase activity, and almost all showed inhibition zones to commonly-used antibiotics in aquaculture. By contrast, high-throughput sequencing established Paraperlucidibaca, Colwellia, Polaribacter, Saprospiraceae, and Tenacibaculum as the predominant genera, with Vibrio ranking twenty-seventh in abundance. High-throughput sequencing also established a link between previous outbreaks with increased relative abundances of Vibrio and Tenacibaculum. Therefore, monitoring the presence and abundance of these potential pathogens could be useful in providing prophylactic measures to prevent future outbreaks.
