    Notes: A new method of determining fish numbers in a large river, which involved electrofishing from boats downstream to an AC electrical barrier, produced capture efficiencies for different species ranging from 28 to 82% when successive pairs of catches were combined. Estimates of population density, biomass and production for the 18 species in a 2.538 ha segment of the Pilica River, Poland revealed a decline in total numbers of the fish in species diversity between 1963 and 1980. This is attributed to increased fishing pressure, and to a loss in habitat diversity following the loss of many water mills and associated dams. The total production estimate of 0.85 g m−2 year−1 is low compared with the few published estimates for other large rivers. Roach, dace, chub, gudgeon and bream were the most numerous fish and they constituted 75% of the total population estimate, and 68% of the standing crop and annual production.

    The Collection, Identification and Reconstruction of Lengths of Fish Prey from their Remains in Pike Stomachs (1980)

    Notes: A simplified Seaburg sampler was used to obtain stomach contents from anaesthetized pike. Well-digested remains of fish prey were identified from pharyngeal bones (Cyprinidae) or the skeletal structure of the caudal region, by comparison with type material collected from fresh fish. The original lengths of the prey were estimated from linear relationships between fish length and size of the caudal fin, or size of the pharyngeal bone. Estimation of prey size from scales or otoliths using length-for-age data gave only approximate values.

    The age, growth and diet of a freshwater population of the flounder, Platichthys flesus (L.), in southern England (1984)

    Notes: Otoliths from 640 flounders from the River Frome, a chalk river in southern England, were used for age and growth studies together with length-frequency data. Mean lengths at ages I–V were 89, 151, 225, 304 and 323 mm respectively; these are higher than have been reported for marine populations. All flounders caught were immature and, on reaching the sea, both sexes probably became sexually mature a year older than did the marine populations. Flounder diets in freshwater comprised largely aquatic insects, Mollusca and Crustacea but there were differences between large and small fish; seasonal changes in diet largely reflected prey availability. It is suggested that competition for food and space in estuaries between 0 group flounders have given rise to the migration into fresh water.

    The growth and reproductive strategy of the gudgeon, Gobio gobio (L.), in two hard-water rivers in southern England (1980)

    Notes: Scales from 682 gudgeon from the River Frome and 504 from the River Stour were used for age determinations. Growth in length was confined to the period May to October, but some weight increase occurred during the winter because of gonad development. Growth rates in the two rivers were the same, and were higher than most of those reported from other European rivers. Wide fluctuations, up to 12-fold, occurred in the year-class strengths of Frome gudgeon, caused by variations in the survival of juvenile gudgeon in their first year of life. Density-independent factors, particularly water temperature, were major influences. Female gudgeon grew marginally slower than the males, but they matured earlier and at a smaller size. They were fractional spawners but their total reproductive effort each season was high. Both sexes had low survival rates and their reproductive life spans were rarely more than three years. These life history traits support the premise that these gudgeon populations are r-selected.
