The understanding of the role of fishes in the trophic functioning of estuaries has increased
in stages over many decades. It began with qualitative and quantitative dietary studies …

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that a widespread non-native fish species in
Brazil displays opportunistic feeding behavior and changes its diet according to …

Food partitioning among coexisting species in different habitats remains an important
research topic in trophic ecology. In this work, we combined carbon and nitrogen stable …

To investigate the potential benefits of the catadromous thinlip grey mullet (Chelon ramada
Risso, 1827) migration to freshwater, the total lipid content and fatty acid (FA) profile of …

Food partitioning among coexisting species is often considered advantageous to minimize
niche overlap and avoid inter-specific competition. Congeneric fish species such as the …

The trophic plasticity of most fish species of Astyanax Baird & Girard, 1854 in response to
environmental changes and resource availability is high. This work evaluates the differences …

Abstract Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK) is based on the knowledge that a community
has about the organisms that occur in the place where people has lived for generations and …

Lithified microbial mats (microbialites) dominated shallow oceans during the Precambrian
but are rare in modern environments. Factors restricting the prevalence of modern …

This appendix uses illustrative references to centre on the desk‐study and analytical
methods, which aim to allow researchers and fishery managers to obtain information on the …

Salmoniformes are valuable commercial fish that are high in physiologically important
omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs), namely eicosapentaenoic …
