大口鲇幼鱼死亡危险期的初步研究

大口鲇ＳｉｌｕｒｕｓｍｅｒｉｄｉｏｎａｌｉｓＣｈｅｎ幼鱼死亡危险期出现于内源性营养进入混合性营养初次摄食的时候。在仔鱼向稚鱼过渡时,不因食性、栖息场所的改变出现另一次死亡高峰。在混合性营养阶段,加强温度的控制,采用少量多次的投饵原则,有利于提高幼鱼的成活率。初次摄食的时间和温度有关。

湘江鳡仔稚鱼个体和耳石生长发育研究

2008年6月至7月间于鳡(Elopichthys bambusa Richardson)的主要繁殖季节在湘江采集鳡仔稚鱼共370尾,耳石分析表明这些仔稚鱼日龄在4—25d间,推算孵化日期为5月27日至6月22日。仔鱼前弯曲期向弯曲期转化时间为第6日龄,弯曲期向后弯曲期转化为第10日龄,后弯曲期向稚鱼期转化为15.5日龄。体长生长和耳石生长均在进入后弯曲期后(12—13日龄)出现1个节点:节点后体长生长速度是节点前的5倍,节点后耳石生长速度是节点前的2倍。早期生活史不同阶段鳡微耳石形态显著改变:前弯曲期耳石为圆形;弯曲期耳石前后轴的生长速度明显超过背腹轴生长,耳石也变为椭圆形;后弯曲期耳石进一步延长,耳石后端形成略尖的突起,耳石呈梨形;进入稚鱼期后,耳石后突起变得较为平滑,耳石形状呈贝形。耳石半径和体长的关系在后弯曲期阶段出现节点,节点前后呈不同的直线关系。

中生代海相双壳类(软体动物)的漂浮与假漂浮

中生代很多海相足丝固着和粘结固着的表栖双壳类有着广泛的、甚至全球的地理分布,有些种能够穿越赤道,跨越特提斯海,进行南、北高纬度生物群的交流,有些种能够由东向西横渡浩瀚的古太平洋进行扩散,因为这些双壳类幼虫期的浮游异养型幼虫能营漂浮生活,而幼虫期后的个体又能挂系或粘结在其它漂浮或移动的物体上进行假漂浮迁移。     

Multifractal anisotropic swimming: the optimal foraging behaviour of grouper larvae

It was hypothesized that the Malabar grouper Ephinephelus malabaricus larvae have developed search patterns adapted to the distribution of their prey to maximise their net energy intake per unit time. Analysis of the swimming behaviour of E. malabaricus larvae in both the presence and absence of Artemia sp. nauplii is presented to test this hypothesis. A method derived from turbulence studies (the moment function of the displacements) was used to characterize the behaviour. The results revealed that larval swimming pattern was multifractal (intermittent and long‐range‐correlated) and isotropic (i.e. uniform in all directions) in the presence of prey, but multifractal and anisotropic (i.e. more frequent long displacement on the vertical axis) in the absence of prey. It is suggested that the search behaviour observed in the absence of prey is an adaptive response to prey distribution pattern, which is often characterised by multifractality and anisotropy (i.e. larger patches on the horizontal axes). In the presence of prey, E. malabaricus shifted to intensive search behaviour. Other possible contributors to the observed patterns are discussed. It is concluded that multifractality and anisotropy of swimming patterns observed in the experiment are mainly explained in an optimal foraging theory framework.     

Growth and multiplication of white skeletal muscle fibres in carp larvae in relation to somatic growth rate

A morphometric analysis of white axial muscle of common carp Cyprinus carpio was undertaken in order to quantify increase in fibre size, fibre nuclei and fibre number in relation to somatic growth rate during early life. In fast-growing carp larvae fed zooplankton, length and height of fibres from the central part of dorsolateral muscle increased at the same rate (0.75) relative to the total length of the larvae during the first 2 weeks of feeding. During this period, the number of nuclei per fibre increased threefold while the number of nuclei per unit fibre surface remained constant. In fast-growing larvae fed a formulated diet, the total cross-sectional area of one epaxial quadrant of white muscle and the total area of white fibres increased at almost the same rate (3.15; 3.23) relative to larval total length during the first 28 days of exogenous feeding. The total number of white fibres increased faster (2.07) relative to the total length of larvae than the mean area of white fibres (1.16). Hyperplasia accounted for 64% of muscle growth in these larvae. The proportion of fibres with a width < 10 μm decreased from 72% at first feeding to 14% 28 days later, while the proportion of fibres with a width >20 μm which was 0% at first feeding increased up to 34% in the same time. The recruitment of new white fibres seemed to be almost the same in the whole muscle quadrant at first feeding and 18 or 28 days later but, 8 days after first feeding, a transient significant recruitment of new fibres was shown at the apex of the myotome. Comparisons between fast- and slow-growing groups of larvae showed that for a given larval total length: (1) the mean width of central white fibres was higher and the proportion of central fibres with a width <10 μm was lower in slow-growing larvae than in fast-growing ones; (2) the total number of white fibres was lower for a higher total cross-sectional area of white muscle in slow-growing larvae than in fast-growing ones. These results suggest that, in Cyprinus carpio larvae, slow-growing conditions are related to a decreased contribution of hyperplasia to muscle growth.

In situ settlement behaviour of damselfish (Pomacentridae) larvae

Settlement‐stage damselfish (Pomacentridae) larvae of 13 species in seven genera were obtained from light traps at Lizard Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Behaviour, observed in situ by SCUBA divers, of 245 larvae (6–13 mm, L_S; 5–60 individuals per species) released individually within a few m of reefs during the day differed markedly among species. From 0–28% (range among 13 species) of individuals of each species swam away from the adjacent reefs without swimming to the reefs. Of those that swam to a reef, 0–75% settled. For three species, sufficient data were available to test the hypothesis that these percentages did not differ amongst reefs: the hypothesis was rejected in one species. From 0–75% of larvae that reached the reef were eaten, 0–63% subsequently left the reef and 0–60% were still swimming over the reef at the end of the observation period. Swimming speeds of all but one species were greater when swimming away from the reef than toward it. Most species exceeded average current speeds when swimming away from reefs, but not when swimming toward and over them. Average swimming depths were in the upper half of the water column for most species, and were somewhat greater where the water depths were greater. The time the larvae swam over the reef before settling and the distance swum varied greatly among species from 0 to a mean of 5.5 min and 43 m. Settlement habitats chosen differed amongst species, and in some species, they were very specific. Average settlement depth varied among species from 6–13.5 m. In one species, settlement depth varied between reefs. About half of the 53 observed interactions between larvae and reef resident fishes were predation attempts: fishes of eight species (six families) attacked larvae. The other interactions were aggressive approaches by 11 species of resident fishes, all but one of which were pomacentrids. Many of these aggressive interactions discouraged settlement attempts. Larvae of some species experienced no predatory or aggressive interactions, whereas in other species interactions averaged >0.6 per released larva. Species that swam more‐or‐less directly to settlement sites near the reef edge experienced more interactions. Even within the same family, settlement behaviour differed among species in nearly all measures.     

Intraspecific variation in Gape–prey size Relationships and Feeding Success During Early Ontogeny in Red Drum, Sciaenops Ocellatus

The relationship between predator gape and prey consumption in laboratory-reared larva and field-caught early juvenile red drum, Sciaenops ocellatus, was investigated in light of the hypothesis that feeding success varies throughout the early life history intervals of marine fishes. We expected the feeding ability of red drum to be more strongly constrained by mouth gape in smaller fish and expected this ability to improve with gape size. To test this hypothesis, field-caught, early juvenile red drum were examined to determine the relationship between gape size and prey size consumed. In field-caught early juveniles, gape (height and width) and prey size consumed (length and width) increased linearly with standard length (SL); however, mean width of prey consumed was only 20–47% of gape width. Furthermore, when regressed on SL, gape width yielded a higher slope than prey width. To further test this hypothesis on less developed, pre-metamorphic fish, age-specific differences in gape, number of prey and size of prey consumed prior to metamorphosis were determined from laboratory-reared red drum larvae. Similar patterns were observed for gape height– and gape width–SL relationships in laboratory-reared red drum larvae. Size of consumed prey increased from three days from hatching (dfh) to 18dfh. The percentage of feeding larvae also increased from 3% at 3dfh to 97% at 18dfh. In both field-caught, early juvenile red drum and laboratory-reared larvae, there was little evidence that the size of prey consumed was constrained by mouth gape. It is hypothesized that besides gape size, the development of other features of the feeding mechanism (e.g., hyoid and opercular series) influences prey-capture performance prior to settlement in marine fishes.     

Ontogenetic Behavior and Dispersal of Sacramento River White Sturgeon, <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">Acipenser Transmontanus</Emphasis>, with a Note on Body Color

Synopsis We studied Sacramento River white sturgeon, Acipenser transmontanus, in the laboratory to develop a conceptual model of ontogenetic behavior and provide insight into probable behavior of wild sturgeon. After hatching, free embryos initiated a low intensity, brief downstream dispersal during which fish swam near the bottom and were photonegative. The weak, short dispersal style and behavior of white sturgeon free embryos contrasts greatly with the intense, long dispersal style and behavior (photopositive and swimming far above the bottom) of dispersing free embryos of other sturgeon species. If spawned eggs are concentrated within a few kilometers downstream of a spawning site, the adaptive significance of the free embryo dispersal is likely to move fish away from the egg deposition site to avoid predation and reduce fish density prior to feeding. Larvae foraged on the open bottom, swam <1 m above the bottom, aggregated, but did not disperse. Early juveniles initiated a strong dispersal with fish strongly vigorously swimming downstream. Duration of the juvenile dispersal is unknown, but the strong swimming likely disperses fish many kilometers. Recruitment failure in white sturgeon populations may be a mis-match between the innate fish dispersal and post-dispersal rearing habitat, which is now highly altered by damming and reservoirs. Sacramento River white sturgeon has a two-step downstream dispersal by the free embryo and juvenile life intervals. Diel activity of all life intervals peaked at night, whether fish were dispersing or foraging. Nocturnal behavior is likely a response to predation, which occurs during both activities. An intense black-tail body color was present on foraging larvae, but was weak or absent on the two life intervals that disperse. Black-tail color may be an adaptation for avoiding predation, signaling among aggregated larvae, or both, but not for dispersal.     

ECDYSTEROIDS IN THE LARVA OF HAEMAPHYSALIS LONGICORNIS NEUMANN (ACARI: IXODIDAE)*

Abstract The ecdysteroids (ECs) concentration and their components in the larvae of Haemaphysalis longicornis were determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). ECs ware found in feeding and engorged larvae and absent in unfed larvae. During feeding and the first 3 days after engorgement, ECs were in low level (less than 14. 35pg EE /larva). On the 5th day, they began to increase sharply (29. 87pg EE /larva) and reached their peak (56. 04pg EE /larva) on the 7th day. Then they declined to low value again (19. 38pg EE /larva). HPLC analysis revealed that the ECs components of the RIA peak could be 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and ecdysone (E) on the ratio of 20E: E = 3. 07: 1, which meant 20E was probably the main effective hormone.     

长角血蜱幼虫中的蜕皮甾类(英文)

本文用放射免疫分析和高效液相色谱法对长角血蜱幼虫中的蜕皮甾类进行了测定。　蜕皮甾类存在于吸血和饱血幼虫,并且随生理时期而变化。吸血期和饱血后前３天,激素含量低（小于 １４． ３５ｐｇ ＥＥ／只）;饱血后５天迅速上升（２９．８７ｐｇ ＥＥ／只）;饱血后７天达到高峰（５６． ０４ｐｇ ＥＥ／只）;高峰后又下降到低水平（１９．３８ ｐｇＥＥ／只）。高峰期的蜕皮甾类主要为两种成分,２０Ｅ和Ｅ（２０Ｅ∶Ｅ＝３．０７∶１）。２０Ｅ可能是幼虫发育中起主要作用的激素。
