Environmental influences on the phenology of immigrating juvenile eels over weirs at the tidal limit of regulated rivers Open
Recruitment of the catadromous and critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla in Europe has declined substantially since the 1980s, with considerable knowledge gaps remaining in many aspects of their life cycle. The aim was to as…

Variability in the duration and timing of the estuarine to freshwater transition of critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla Open
The European eel ( Anguilla anguilla L.) is a critically endangered catadromous fish. Their inshore and in-river arrival as glass eel and elvers is an important stage of their life cycle, marking the transition from marine to freshwater ha…

Trophic relationships of translocated and indigenous chub Squalius cephalus populations with trophically analogous fishes Open
The translocation of non-indigenous fishes into lowland rives can result in invasive populations establishing and dispersing. Because non-indigenous fishes can cause ecological harm, it is important to understand their trophic relationship…

Seascape genomics reveals limited dispersal and suggests spatially varying selection among European populations of sea lamprey ( <i>Petromyzon marinus</i> ) Open
Sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus is an anadromous and semelparous fish without homing behaviors. Despite being a freshwater, free‐living organism for a large part of their life cycle, its adulthood is spent as a parasite of marine vertebrate…

Low microplastic loads in riverine European eel (<span><i>Anguilla anguilla</i></span>) from southwest England during their marine–freshwater transition Open
The microplastic loads in elvers of the critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla , sampled in the lower reaches of three English rivers, were very low (incidence: 3.3%, mean ± s.d. : 0.03 ± 0.18 particles) and did not vary with…

Non‐lethal sampling for the stable isotope analysis of the critically endangered European eel <i>Anguilla anguilla</i>: how fin and mucus compare to dorsal muscle Open
Ecological studies on the critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla often incorporate stable isotope analysis that typically uses dorsal muscle sampled from euthanised eels. To minimise the lethal sampling of imperilled populati…

Age and growth rates of a translocated chub <i>Squalius cephalus</i> chalk-stream population with comparison to indigenous riverine populations in England Open
Introduced fishes into lowland rivers can result in invasive populations establishing and then dispersing, where knowledge of their life history traits contributes to understandings of their invasion ecology. Here, the age and growth rates…
