“…The Adriatic Sea is, with 449 species recorded, one of the richest parts of Mediterranean and shares this high fish diversity with the rest of the North Mediterranean [49]. Among the new recorded species, shortly after their first records, second records of Lobotes surinamensis (Bloch, 1790), S. luridus, Enchelycore anatina (Lowe, 1838), and Lagocephalus sceleratus (Gmelin, 1789) followed [74][75][76], thus confirming their presence. Additionally, findings of juveniles of F. commersonii and S. luridus and immature specimens of Caranx crysos (Mitchill, 1815) in the South Adriatic might indicate the establishment of populations of these species [75].…”

“…Additionally, findings of juveniles of F. commersonii and S. luridus and immature specimens of Caranx crysos (Mitchill, 1815) in the South Adriatic might indicate the establishment of populations of these species [75]. Furthermore, it is unclear whether E. anatina is a previously established, but overlooked inhabitant of the Adriatic Sea or only a recent immigrant [55,76]. Two records of L. sceleratus from two distinct areas of the eastern Adriatic may indicate an early phase of colonization, especially considering a rather fast spreading of this species in the Mediterranean Sea [77].…”

The paper presents an analysis of biogeographic and habitat distribution patterns, and the conservation status data of Adriatic fishes, based on the last published checklist and evidence-based critical analyses of species presence. The total number of species recorded in the Adriatic is 449. The Adriatic has 58.8% of Mediterranean species richness, 76.1% of its families, and 87.8% of its orders. Among species discovered in the Adriatic after 2010, twelve species were attributed to biological invasion, mostly Atlantic immigrants or alien species, and ten species were attributed to improved research on the native ichthyofauna of the Adriatic area. About 58% of species are native species of Atlanto-Mediterranean origin, 21% are native species of wider global occurrence, 15% are Mediterranean or Mediterranean and Black Sea endemics and 5% originated outside Mediterranean Sea. The majority of species inhabit the benthic environment (71.9%), while others occur in the pelagic environment (20.7%) or are euryhaline (7.3%). The benthic littoral species are the most numerous Adriatic fishes, representing 40% of all species richness, whereas pelagic fishes are mainly eurybathic or epipelagic; only 3.6% of species are deep pelagic species. A Red Book of marine fishes of the Adriatic Sea is urgently needed to assess their conservation status, covering the entire Adriatic Sea and reviewing all fish species to assess their conservation status.

Seasonal morphophysiological changes during the reproductive cycle of the tripletail fish Lobotes surinamensis (Perciformes: Lobotidae) in the western South Atlantic

and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) were evaluated in all seasons. The histological analysis of the gonads showed that L. surinamensis is a multiple spawner with an asynchronous oocyte development. The gene expression of fshβ did not change throughout the reproductive cycle in males and females, while the gene expression of lhβ in males was higher in the summer compared to the autumn/winter periods. Plasma E 2 was higher in females and 11-KT in males during spring. Gonadal development, plasma level of E 2 (females), and 11-KT (males) are indicators that L. surinamensis reproduce during the spring and summer in Paraty Bay, while the gene expression levels of gonadotropins in females and fshβ in males were not useful physiological tools to establish the reproductive season. The results suggest an active expression throughout the year, a profile expected in multiple spawning species, as proposed here for the L. surinamensis.

“…The species was first recorded in 2003 in Gokova Bay of Turkey (Akyol et al 2005). Soon afterwards, the species established abundant populations along the coasts of nearly, if not all, the Mediterranean countries (Akyol et al 2005;Golani and Levy 2005;Golani and Azzurro 2007;Kasapidis et al 2007;Rilov and Galil 2009;Türker-Çakır et al 2009;EastMed 2010;Kalogirou et al 2010;Halim and Rizkalla 2011;Torcu-Koç et al 2011;Yaglioglu et al 2011;Jribi and Bradai 2012;Milazzo et al 2012;Nader et al 2012;Başusta et al 2013;Beköz et al 2013;Kalogirou 2013;Azzurro et al 2014;Ben Souissi et al 2014;Dulčić et al 2014;Sulić-Šprem et al 2014;Tiralongo and Tibullo 2014;Tunçer and Önal 2014;Deidun et al 2015;Irmak and Altınağaç 2015;Kara et al 2015;El-Haweet et al 2016;Akyol and Ünal 2017;Carbonara et al 2017;Ünal and Göncüoğlu-Bodur 2017).…”

Abstract. Abd Rabou AFN. 2019. On the occurrence and health risks of the Silver-cheeked Toadfish (Lagocephalus sceleratus Gmelin, 1789) in the marine ecosystem of the Gaza Strip, Palestine. Biodiversitas 20: 2620-2627. The Silver-cheeked Toadfish (Lagocephalus sceleratus Gmelin, 1789) is one of the most recent invaders into the Mediterranean Sea. It represents a serious ecological risk to Mediterranean biodiversity and fisheries resources and a health risk to public health. The current study comes to handle the occurrence and health risks of the species in the Eastern Mediterranean of the Gaza Strip, Palestine. Frequent visits to local fish markets, meetings, and discussions with stakeholders, and chasing of local media reports were the main tools involved to satisfy the goals of the study, which extended from 2010 to 2019. The first record of the Silver-cheeked Toadfish in the Mediterranean coast of the Gaza Strip was in 2006 as claimed by fisheries parties. The by-catch of the species by fishing gear extended over the entire length of the Mediterranean coast of the Gaza Strip (42 km). The species was said to damage fishing nets, lines and hooks by its strong teeth. Prior to its banning in early 2010s, all pufferfishes including the species in question were sold freely in Gaza fish markets. Several cases of hospitalization have been reported in the Gaza Strip after consumption of the Silver-cheeked Toadfish. The symptoms of TTX intoxication included nausea and vomiting, dizziness, headache, abdominal pain, perioral paraesthesia, and tingling over the entire body. No death cases were reported locally. Many awareness campaigns have been conducted by fisheries parties to warn both fishermen and local people from the ecological and health risks associated with the Silver-cheeked Toadfish and TTX intoxication. Finally, the threats imposed by the Silver-cheeked Toadfish on the Eastern Mediterranean countries including Palestine indicate that potential solutions to the problem should be explored.
