Movement patterns of Natal seacatfish Galeichthys troworum (Ariidae) tagged in the Pondoland Marine Protected Area, Eastern Cape, South Africa
AbstractA tag-recapture study was undertaken on the Natal seacatfish Galeichthys troworum in the Pondoland Marine Protected Area (PMPA) on the east coast of South Africa. A total of 473 fish were tagged over a period of 8 years, and 136 individuals (28.8%) were recaptured over a period of 16 years, some of them on multiple occasions. Most recaptures (82%) were caught within 200 m of their release site, with movements ranging between 0 and 617 m, and time-at-liberty ranging between 0 and 3 407 days (9.3 years). Data analysis showed that all recaptured fish remained in relatively small home ranges (of ∼360 m linear distance) and none of them abandoned their home range and moved out of the 2-km2 sampling blocks. While the no-take area of the PMPA provided effective protection for these fish, their relative abundance was similar in an adjacent exploited area. This is likely because G. troworum is not a desired linefish species, with most individuals caught being released, coupled with high post-release survival.Keywords: exploited areafork lengthhome rangesite fidelitystation-keepingtag and release
期刊介绍:
The African (formerly South African) Journal of Marine Science provides an international forum for the publication of original scientific contributions or critical reviews, involving oceanic, shelf or estuarine waters, inclusive of oceanography, studies of organisms and their habitats, and aquaculture. Papers on the conservation and management of living resources, relevant social science and governance, or new techniques, are all welcomed, as are those that integrate different disciplines. Priority will be given to rigorous, question-driven research, rather than descriptive research. Contributions from African waters, including the Southern Ocean, are particularly encouraged, although not to the exclusion of those from elsewhere that have relevance to the African context. Submissions may take the form of a paper or a short communication. The journal aims to achieve a balanced representation of subject areas but also publishes proceedings of symposia in dedicated issues, as well as guest-edited suites on thematic topics in regular issues.
