FIGURE 13.2 Seasonality of abundance for nine dominant fish species in tropical Terminos Lagoon southern Gulf of Mexico. The index of abundance both in (a) fluvial lagoon system (FLS) and (b) sea grass mangrove system (SMS) habitats, shows a clear seasonal programming of fish species and sequential habitat utilization. Anchoa mitchilli, Arius melanopus, Sphaeroides testudineus, Cichlasoma urophthalmus, Bairdiella crysoura, Eucinostomus gula, and Diapterus rhombeus. Orthopristis chrysoptera is exclusive from SMS, and Petenia splendida is exclusive from FLS. Source: From Yáñez-Arancibia et al. (1988). ESTUARINE ECOLOGY, Second Edition. John W. Day JR, Byron C.

FIGURE 13.4 Life histories of six selected dominant fish species: marine-estuarine spawners A. rhomboidalis and H. plumieri; estuarine spawners C. urophthalmus and U. jamaicensis; freshwater-estuarine spewners A. melanopus and B. chrysoura. The fish migrate using sea grasses/mangroves system (SMS) and fluvial lagoon system (FLS) habitats for the highest periods of productivity for feeding, spawning, or nursery ground.

FIGURE 13.6 Three-dimensional ofln maturation length, ln mean clutch size, and investment per progeny for 68 marine fishes. Maturation length is the modal length in mm TL, mean clutch size is the mean batch fecundity for a local ecosystem or location and investment/progeny is an index that can range from 0 = no parental care to 8 = extremely long gestation. A value of 4 = lengthy protection by both sexes, etc. Source: From Winemiller and Rose (1992). ESTUARINE ECOLOGY, Second Edition. John W. Day JR, Byron C. Crump, W.
