Diets of abundant fishes from beach seine catches in seagrass beds of a tropical bay (Gazi Bay, Kenya)
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: De Troch, M.; Mees, J.; Wakwabi, E.O.
The composition of the diet of 14 fish species that were common in beach seine catches over the seagrass beds of Gazi Bay (Kenya) was investigated. Three trophic guilds could be distinguished based on dietary diversity and on the numerical and gravimetrical composition of the diet. &lt;i&gt;Herklotsichthys quadrimaculatus, Stolephorus indicus&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Atherinomorus duodecimalis&lt;/i&gt; were planktivores. Their stomach fullness index was low and the diet was not diverse. The main food items were harpacticoid and calanoid copepods and brachyuran zoea and megalopae. &lt;i&gt;Apogon thermalis, Fowleria aurita, Paramonacanthus barnardi, Mulloides flavolineatus, Lutjanus fulviflamma, L. argentimaculatus&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Gerres...

Comparative study of the hyperbenthos of three European estuaries
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Fockedey, N.; Hamerlynck, O.
The hyperbenthic fauna of the subtidal channels of the Eems (N. Netherlands), Westerschelde (S.W. Netherlands), and Gironde (S.W. France) estuaries was sampled within a 15-day period in summer 1991. In each estuary, quantitative samples were taken at regularly spaced stations covering the entire salinity gradient from marine conditions at the mouth to nearly freshwater conditions upstream. The diversity of the samples and the distribution of the species along the main estuarine gradients were assessed. Hyperbenthic communities were identified using different multivariate statistical techniques. The species composition and the density and biomass of the dominant species of each community were compared among communities.

The mysid-feeding guild of demersal fishes in the brackish zone of the Westerschelde estuary
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Hostens, K.; Mees, J.
The demersal fish fauna of the mesohaline zone of the Westerschelde estuary (south-west Netherlands) was sampled intensively in the period 1990-1992. Almost 500 beam trawl samples were taken in both subtidal (330 samples) and intertidal (144 samples) habitats. These yielded 44 fish species, mostly as juveniles. The area functioned as a nursery for several demersal fish species, and harboured large populations of hyperbenthic mysids. Three gobies, three flatfish, one clupeoid and one gadoid dominated the fish fauna, while three mysid species were important components of the holohyperbenthos. From c. 1500 stomach contents of 25 fish species, 44 prey species were identified, the most abundant of which were also common in the hyperbenthal. The demersal fish...

The hyperbenthos
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Jones, M.B.
The hyperbenthos is a term applied to the association of small animals living in the water layer close to the sea bed. The species composition of the hyperbenthos is distinctly different from that of other benthic and planktonic groupings, and includes endemic species, planktonic species derived from their downward extensions (often with seasonal periodicity) and endo- or epibenthic species as they emerge into the water column (usually in diel cycles). In nearly all marine ecosystems investigated to date, there is a general increase in the biomass at the benthic boundary layer (hyperbenthon) relative to the water column immediately above it, yet the zone and its fauna remain relatively poorly studied. Sampling these often highly mobile animals is not easy...

Circadiel patterns in the tidal plankton of a sandy beach in Zeebrugge (Belgium)
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Lock, K.; Beyst, B.; Mees, J.
The intertidal fauna of a Belgian sandy beach was sampled on an hourly basis with a hand-pushed sledge to study circadiel patterns in species composition. Four assemblages could be distinguished with classification and ordination techniques. A first division separated the samples taken during daytime from the night samples. Both assemblages were subsequently divided into an ebbtide and a floodtide situation. Light intensity and tidal height were the most important variables explaining the variation in the Canonical Correspondence Analysis.

Distribution and abundance of shallow water hyperbenthic mysids (Crustacea, Mysidacea), and euphausiids (Crustacea, Euphausiacea), in the Voordelta and the Westerschelde, southwest Netherlands
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Cattrijsse, A.; Hamerlynck, O.
The hyperbenthic mysids and euphausiids of the subtidal shallow coastal waters (the Voordelta) and the Westerschelde estuary in the Delta area (SW Netherlands) were regularly sampled between 1988 and 1991. Two salt marshes in the brackish part of the estuary were studied in the same period. Eight mysid species and one euphausiid species were identified. The spatial and seasonal distribution patterns of all species are described. The most abundant species in the coastal area is &lt;i&gt;Schistomysis spiritus&lt;/i&gt;, followed by &lt;i&gt;Mesopodopsis slabberi, Schistomysis kervillei&lt;/i&gt;, and &lt;i&gt;Gastrosaccus spinifer&lt;/i&gt;.

First record of &lt;i&gt;Synidotea laevidorsalis&lt;/i&gt; (Miers, 1881) (Crustacea: Isopoda) in Europe (Gironde estuary, France)
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Fockedey, N.
This note reports on the presence of a well established population of the isopod &lt;i&gt;Synidotea laevidorsalis&lt;/i&gt; (Miers) in the Gironde estuary (southwestern France). This species is new for the European fauna. &lt;i&gt;S. laevidorsalis&lt;/i&gt; is a nonendemic cool-temperate to subtropical, shallow-water species which was probably introduced into the study area from Asia. In the salinity range of 1 to 10 g l&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; of the Gironde the species constitutes an important component of the brackish-water hyperbenthic community. The population was already present in 1975 when it was misidentified as the native species &lt;i&gt;Idotea emarginata&lt;/i&gt; (Fabricius).

Aberrant individuals of &lt;i&gt;Neomysis integer&lt;/i&gt; and other Mysidacea: intersexuality and variable telson morphology
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Fockedey, N.; Dewicke, A.; Janssen, C.R.; Sorbe, J.-C.
Intersexuality in the mysid &lt;i&gt;Neomysis integer&lt;/i&gt; is described from samples collected in the Elbe (north Germany), Eems-Dollard (north Netherlands), Westerschelde (south-west Netherlands) and Gironde (south-west France) estuaries. Individuals which had an irregularly shaped or nearly symmetrically rounded telson, rather than a typically truncated one, were also recorded from the four populations studied. A culture experiment with damaged specimens revealed that all types of abnormal telson morphology found in the field can result from regeneration of damaged parts. It is concluded that both intersexuality and aberrant telson morphology are widespread phenomena among estuarine &lt;i&gt;N. integer&lt;/i&gt; populations. Both abnormalities seem...

The harbour seal, &lt;i&gt;Phoca vitulina&lt;/i&gt;, in the Oosterschelde: decline and possibilities for recovery
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Reijnders, P.J.H.
Within the timespan of a few decades, the harbour seal almost completely disappeared from the estuaries in the south-west of the Netherlands. In 1960 a population of around 350 animals still lived in the Oosterschelde and Westerschelde area. About a quarter of this population lived in the Oosterschelde. At present less than 17 animals can be regularly observed in the whole area. Human influences are responsible for the rapid decline of the population. Initially the high hunting pressure and later environmental pollution are the main causes. Loss of habitat and disturbance at the resting places are additional important factors. The Oosterschelde still is a suitable habitat for seals. A short term natural development of a viable population in the area is not...

Spatial community structure of the winter hyperbenthos of the Schelde estuary, the Netherlands, and the adjacent coastal waters
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Hamerlynck, O.
A first assessment of the ecological importance of the hyperbenthic fauna in coastal and estuarine systems was made in December 1988 in a pilot study (41 stations) covering the Westerschelde and Oosterschelde estuaries, and part of the neighbouring shallow coastal area, the Voordelta. Multivariate analysis revealed three major gradients which could be divided into seven spatially defined hyperbenthic communities. Canonical Correspondence Analysis was applied to correlate these species assemblages with a number of environmental variables measured at each station. Species distributions in the Westerschelde appear to be primarily determined by a gradient involving salinity, turbidity and dissolved oxygen. Hyperbenthic animals, mainly the mysid...

Annual dynamics of meiobenthic communities in the Ligurian Sea (northwestern Mediterranean): preliminary results
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Danovaro, R.; Mees, J.; Vincx, M.
The dynamics of meiobenthic community were investigated on sandy sediments of the pilot station of Zoagli (Ligurian Sea) between January 1991 and January 1992. Meiofaunal densities ranged between 447 (April) and 3421 (July) ind./10 cm2. Nematodes were the dominant group comprising on the average 75 % of the total fauna. Harpacticoid copepods were the second most abundant group (from 1.7 to 55.3 %) followed by Turbellaria (on the average 5.5 % of total fauna) and Polychaeta (on average 1.2 % of total fauna). The importance of several environmental parameters (such as total organic matter, grain size and RPD depth) in structuring the meiobenthic community is discussed.

&lt;i&gt;Doxomysis algoaensis&lt;/i&gt; sp.nov. is described from Algoa Bay, South Africa where it is common in nearshore marine waters just beyond the breaker line. &lt;i&gt;D. algoaensis&lt;/i&gt; sp.nov. is morphologically similar to &lt;i&gt;D. australiensis&lt;/i&gt;, but can readily be distinguished by the shape and armature of the telson and the length of the exopod of the fourth male pleopod. The apical cleft is one fifth the telson length in the former species and one third the length in &lt;i&gt;D. australiensis&lt;/i&gt;. The telson apex on each side of the cleft is also armed with five and four stout spines in the two species, respectively.

Aspects of the biology and feeding ecology of the orbiculate cardinal fish &lt;i&gt;Sphaeramia orbicularis&lt;/i&gt; (Cuvier, 1828) (Teleostei: Apogonidae) in a Kenyan mangrove forest
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Mees, J.; Mwamsojo, G.U.; Wakwabi, E.O.
The orbiculate cardinal fish &lt;i&gt;Sphaeramia orbicularis&lt;/i&gt; is the most abundant teleost among the root system of the extensive mangrove forests bordering Gazi Bay, Kenya. The species was never recorded from the bay proper and it can thus be considered to be a true mangrove resident. The sampled population clearly consisted of two cohorts: the modes were approximately 65mm and 80 mm. Most individuals with standard lengths &gt;40mm had mature gonads ; the number of eggs ranged from 4,700 to 10,000. &lt;i&gt;S. orbicularis&lt;/i&gt; are carnivores, mainly feeding on small epi- and hyperbenthic crustaceans. Numerically, gammaridean amphipods and tanaids were the dominant prey categories in the stomachs of both size classes. Individuals belonging to...

Early postlarval fish in the hyperbenthos of the Dutch Delta (south-west Netherlands)
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Beyst, B.; Mees, J.; Cattrijsse, A.
Early (post)larval fish constitute a significant part of the temporary hyperbenthos, i.e. of the fauna living in the lower reaches of the water column close to the substratum. Information on the densities and spatial and temporal variations of these stages, as well as on their lengths at the moment of occurrence, can be an important contribution to the knowledge of their dispersion, migrations and to the identification of possible bottlenecks in their recruitment. Therefore the hyperbenthos of the Voordelta, a shallow coastal zone in front of the Dutch Delta, as well as that of the subtidal channels and the intertidal brackish marsh creeks of the Westerschelde Estuary, was sampled monthly during one year by means of a sledge and a stow net. A total of 37...

Temporal and spatial structure in the hyperbenthic community of a shallow coastal area and its relation to environmental variables
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Hamerlynck, O.; Mees, J.
Monthly sampling with a sledge type gear at 24 stations in the shallow coastal area in front of the Dutch Delta (southern bight of the North Sea) shows that high densities of a variety of animals are present in the lower 1 m of the water column: the hyperbenthos. Hyperbenthic community structure is strongly dominated by seasonal fluctuations due to the sequential appearance, high abundance and disappearance of the different species of temporary hyperbenthos. In winter and early spring, when the community is dominated by its permanent residents, spatial patterns emerge. Averaged over the year, these spatial patterns are consistent with the hydrodynamic regime in the system. Sedimentation of silt occurs in the same sheltered areas where the highest biomass...

Chapter 1: provides, I believe, a quasi-complete overview of the existing literature on the hyperbenthos. It thus serves as a general introduction to the work presented in this thesis. Studies are situated in space and time and the main structural characteristics of hyperbenthic communities are summarised. Quite some effort is paid to resolve the overriding semantic disagreement which seems to slow down progress in the field. Sampling methodology and the history of hyperbenthic research are reviewed. The role of hyperbenthic animals in marine food webs is briefly touched upon. Chapter 2: describes the hyperbenthic communities of the Voordelta.

Feeding of the hyperbenthic mysid &lt;i&gt;Neomysis integer&lt;/i&gt; in the maximum turbidity zone of the Elbe, Westerschelde and Gironde estuaries
Provedor de dados: 27
Autores: Fockedey, N.; Mees, J.
The diet of the mysid &lt;i&gt;Neomysis integer&lt;/i&gt;in the maximum turbidity zone (MTZ) of three European estuaries (Elbe, Westerschelde and Gironde) was investigated in spring 1993.
