 PLOS ONENew study shows inbreeding in winter flounder in Long Island's bays Research conducted in six bays of Long Island, NY, and led by scientists from the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University showed that local populations of winter flounder are inbred, which is a situation that is not usually considered in marine fisheries management.

Biology LettersMale guppies ensure successful mating with genital claws Some males will go to great lengths to pursue a female and take extreme measures to hold on once they find one that interests them, even if that affection is unrequited. New research from evolutionary biologists at the University of Toronto shows that the male guppy grows claws on its genitals to make it more difficult for unreceptive females to get away during mating.

Zoological Journal of the Linnean SocietyFrom obscurity to dominance: Tracking the rapid evolutionary rise of ray-finned fish Mass extinctions, like lotteries, result in a multitude of losers and a few lucky winners. This is the story of one of the winners, a small, shell-crushing predatory fish called Fouldenia, which first appears in the fossil record a mere 11 million years after an extinction that wiped out more than 90 percent of the planet's vertebrate species.

Earth System Science DataFirst global atlas of marine plankton reveals remarkable underwater world Under the microscope, they look like they could be from another planet, but these microscopic organisms inhabit the depths of our oceans in nearly infinite numbers. To begin to identify where, when, and how much oceanic plankton can be found around the globe, international researchers have compiled the first ever global atlas cataloguing marine plankton.
