“…In Japan and Asian countries, the red spotted grouper (Epinephelus akkara), seven-band grouper (E. septemfasciatus), longtooth grouper (E. bruneus), Malabar grouper (E. malabaricus), white-streaked grouper (E. ongus), areolate grouper (E. areolatus), and leopard coral grouper (Plectropomus leopardus) are successfully mass produced using artificial seed [2,3]. Studies on reproductive physiology based on seed production, induction of maturation and spawning, and and leopard coral grouper (Plectropomus leopardus) are successfully mass produced using artificial seed [2,3]. Studies on reproductive physiology based on seed production, induction of maturation and spawning, and sex change have been conducted on several economically important and easily accessible grouper species, such as the seven-band grouper [4], longtooth grouper [5], red spotted grouper [6], honeycomb grouper (E. merra) [7,8], and blacktip grouper (E. fasciatus) [9].…”

“…Therefore, overfishing to meet market demand is a concern. As a countermeasure for their preservation and sustainable use, artificial seed production of groupers is actively carried out in various countries around the world, especially in East Asian countries [ 2 , 3 ]. In Japan and Asian countries, the red spotted grouper ( Epinephelus akkara ), seven-band grouper ( E. septemfasciatus ), longtooth grouper ( E. bruneus ), Malabar grouper ( E. malabaricus ), white-streaked grouper ( E. ongus ), areolate grouper ( E. areolatus ), and leopard coral grouper ( Plectropomus leopardus ) are successfully mass produced using artificial seed [ 2 , 3 ].…”

Groupers are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical areas worldwide, are key species to coastal ecosystems, and valuable fishery targets. To facilitate artificial seed production technology for grouper aquaculture, the mechanisms of reproduction and gonad development are being elucidated for these important species. In addition, since groupers are sexually dimorphic fish with female-first maturity (protogynous hermaphrodite fish), research is being conducted to clarify the ecological mechanism of sex change and their reproductive physiology, focusing on the endocrine system. In recent years, research on groupers has also been conducted to understand changes in the coastal environment caused by ocean warming and man-made chemicals. However, due to difficulties associated with conducting research using wild populations for breeding experiments, knowledge of the physiology and ecology of these fish is lacking, especially their reproductive physiology. In this review, we present information on the reproductive physiology and endocrinology of groupers obtained to date, together with the characteristics of their life history.

Dichos caracteres permitieron reconstruir la serie de desarrollo completa y vincular los primeros estadios con los adultos.T HE family Serranidae (Teleostei, Perciformes) comprises a large group of marine fishes, economically and ecologically important (e.g., Heemstra et al, 2003;Craig et al, 2011), distributed from tropical to temperate waters worldwide (Richards, 2005;Parenti and Randall, 2020).

The family Serranidae comprises a large group of marine fishes distributed worldwide. The identification of early stages of serranids at the species level is difficult due to a high family diversity and to overlapping morphological and meristic features. In this study, we describe morphological and meristic features of early stages of Dules auriga and summarize density and distribution data for larvae collected in the San José Gulf, Península Valdés, Argentina. Larvae were distinguished by relevant morphological features that include opercular complex development, meristic features, pigmentation pattern, the sequence of appearance of fin elements, and the structure of the caudal region, typical of serranids. The elongated third dorsal spine, characteristic of adult D. auriga, was not observed. Two preflexion larvae were identified using COI barcoding to confirm the species identity. Morphological features described here helped to discriminate D. auriga from other serranids occurring in the area and enabled reconstruction of the entire developmental series and linkage between early stages and adults.
