Summary The present study reports length–weight relationships (LWR) and length–length relationships (LLR) for five native freshwater fish species (Schizopygopsis younghusbandi, Triplophysa orientalis, T. tibetana, T. stewartii and T. stenura) and four introduced freshwater fish species (Pseudorasbora parva, Carassius auratus, Micropercops cinctus and Oryzias latipes) captured in the Lhasa River Basin, Tibet, China. Five of the LWRs are presented for the first time.

“…The Tibetan Plateau is one of the biodiversity hotspots around the globe for its unique natural environment (Li and Fang 1999), which accounts for the rich occurrence of endemic species of various taxa in this region, such as Triplophysa cakaensis (Cobitidae) (Cao and Zhu 1988), Schizothorax waltoni (Cyprinidae) (Chen and Chen 2010), and Alona aliensis (Chydoridae) (Chiang et al 1983). What about oligochaetes?…”

One new species of Naidinae (Oligochaeta, Naididae), Nais badia sp. n. and one new record species from China, Tubifex montanus Kowalewski, 1919 (Tubificinae) are found in southern Tibet. The new species is distinguished from congeners by its large area of reddish brown pigment in the anterior segments I–VIII, serrate hairs, pectinate needles with 1–2 intermediate teeth, ventral chaetae partly with 1–2 fine intermediate teeth and wave-like movements. The new material of the species Tubifex montanus differs slightly from the previous descriptions by its vas deferens entering atrium subapically, wide ental end of penial sheath and smooth hair chaetae.

Although its fish community is predominantly schizothoracine with a few piscivorous species, large quantities of non‐native freshwater fishes have been introduced in recent years from inland China, with C. auratus now the most abundant non‐native fish in the river (Chen and Chen, ).…”

SummaryThe consequences of fractional spawning on the early-life growth rates of invasive goldfish (Carassius auratus) from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau were studied using the otolith microstructure of samples collected in June 2011. The effect of the estimated hatching date on the subsequent growth of individual fish was determined by back-calculating their number of growth days, daily growth rates and the onset of their second growth season. The number of growth days in the first growth season ranged from 93 to 186 days. Following hatching, daily growth rates increased rapidly to a maximum of 0.55 mm days À1 before declining to 0.09 mm days À1 . The effect of the duration of the first growth season on individuals was significant (P < 0.01), with later spawned fish having faster growth rates. These later spawned fish were, however, still significantly smaller in body length at the end of the first growth season (37 AE 4 mm in late hatched fish vs 55 AE 9 mm in early hatched fish). However, the smaller, later hatched fish started growing earlier in their second growth season than all other fish (P < 0.01) and subsequently achieved larger growth increments (P < 0.01), suggesting that the larger, earlyhatched fish were investing more resources in gonadal growth than somatic growth in their second growth year. Thus, this invasive population revealed considerable plasticity in their early-life growth rates that were associated with the hatching date, potentially having substantial effects on their development in their second year of life.
