TL;DR: Age and growth of tilapia Oreochromis aureus (Steindachner 1864) were estimated, as indispensable attributes for fishery management and linearized, non-parametric and non-linear methods were used and their applicability discussed.

TL;DR: Morphological and genetic data confirmed that the common octopus of the Veracruz Reef System is not O. vulgaris and determined that it is, in fact, the recently described O. insularis from Brazil.

TL;DR: The present study suggests that the composition of the parasite community is associated with the host feeding habits because 18/21 of the recorded species are trophically transmitted.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the specific case of the tilapia fishery in the Infiernillo reservoir in Mexico and used the Schaefer and Fox models to understand the history of fishery, while the current state of the stock was examined by applying Beverton & Holt, Cohort Analysis of Jones and Thompson & Bell models.

TL;DR: The common octopus of the southwestern Gulf of Mexico has been recently identified as Octopus insularis, a species with unique biological and ecological characteristics and its population structure and reproductive dynamics are described to provide basic biological information for the sustainable management of the species in the region.
