A three-year survey of hatched elasmobranch egg capsules on Santa Catarina Island, Southern Brazil
Over a three-year survey, the present study investigated the diversity of hatched elasmobranch egg capsules along the six beaches of Santa Catarina Island, Southern Brazil. Egg capsules (1,773) from seven elasmobranch taxa were record, including six skate taxa (Atlantoraja castelnaui, Atlantoraja spp., Psammobatis spp., Rioraja agassizii, Sympterygia acuta, and Sympterygia bonapartii) and, notably, the first report of a shark egg capsules on a Brazilian beach, the frecked catshark Scyliorhinus haeckelii. The three species with the highest number of collected egg capsules (>90) were selected to assess the influence of temperature on their reproductive cycles. There was a predominance of capsules in the warm (spring and summer) season for S. acuta and Psammobatis spp. There was no significant difference in the number of egg capsules between warm and cold (autumn and winter) seasons for R. agassizii, suggesting an active reproductive pattern throughout the year. We also verified the difference in the number of egg capsules among six beaches using data from R. agassizii which was related to areas sheltered (rocky coastline, island) from winds and prevailing ocean currents along the island. These findings were important to increase the knowledge of oviparous elasmobranch species from the Western South Atlantic, underscoring the importance of egg capsule monitoring to understand the biodiversity and reproductive ecology of the local species, which are crucial for effective conservation strategies.
期刊介绍:
Continental Shelf Research publishes articles dealing with the biological, chemical, geological and physical oceanography of the shallow marine environment, from coastal and estuarine waters out to the shelf break. The continental shelf is a critical environment within the land-ocean continuum, and many processes, functions and problems in the continental shelf are driven by terrestrial inputs transported through the rivers and estuaries to the coastal and continental shelf areas. Manuscripts that deal with these topics must make a clear link to the continental shelf. Examples of research areas include:
Physical sedimentology and geomorphology
Geochemistry of the coastal ocean (inorganic and organic)
Marine environment and anthropogenic effects
Interaction of physical dynamics with natural and manmade shoreline features
Benthic, phytoplankton and zooplankton ecology
Coastal water and sediment quality, and ecosystem health
Benthic-pelagic coupling (physical and biogeochemical)
Interactions between physical dynamics (waves, currents, mixing, etc.) and biogeochemical cycles
Estuarine, coastal and shelf sea modelling and process studies.
