Morphology of the filtration apparatus of three planktivorous fishes and relation with ingested anthropogenic particles
Anthropogenic particles (APs), including microplastics, are ingested by a wide variety of
marine organisms. Exposure of Clupeiformes (eg herrings, anchovies, sardines) is poorly …

Independent evolutionary origins of landlocked alewife populations and rapid parallel evolution of phenotypic traits
Alewife, Alosa pseudoharengus, populations occur in two discrete life‐history variants, an
anadromous form and a landlocked (freshwater resident) form. Landlocked populations …

Quantifying exchanges of Allis shads between river catchments by combining otolith microchemistry and abundance indices in a Bayesian model
Similar to many diadromous fish species, dramatic declines were observed for Allis shad, an
anadromous Clupeidae, since the beginning of the 2000s. The knowledge of population and …
