Key points: 2021 stock assessment outcomes • The West Coast Demersal Scalefish Resource (WCDSR) is halfway into a 20-year recovery plan following a period of overfishing in the 1990s and 2000s. • This latest assessment provides an important “health check” on the recovery status. • The recovery plan is based on maintaining recreational (including charter) and commercial sector’s total fishing mortality below catch limits and protecting key spawning aggregations to recover the WCDSR by 2030. • The Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) tracks recovery progress by undertaking weight of evidence stock assessments of WCDSR indicator species dhufish …

Diseases Of Mahi Mahi Or Common Dolphin Fish, Coryphaena Hippurus In Australia, Jeremy S. Langdon Jan 1991

Diseases Of Mahi Mahi Or Common Dolphin Fish, Coryphaena Hippurus In Australia, Jeremy S. Langdon

Fisheries research bulletins

The diseases encountered in mahi mahi, Coryphaena hippurus, in a land-based hatchery, grow-out sea-cages, and from wild populations between 1987 and 1990 were predominately due to protozoan and metazoan parasites. "Milky flesh", or flesh liquefaction post-mortem, due to Kudoa thyrsites, Trichodina gill infections, and eye lesions induced by Benedenia were the most serious infectious diseases of cultured fish. Bacterial diseases were limited to secondary opportunistic infections and fin "rot", and no fungal or viral conditions were detected. Non-infectious diseases included vitamin E deficiency in fry, lateral canal erosions, and miscellaneous dietary and therapeutic toxicities.
