Interviewees with the greatest misperceptions were also less compliant. The social norms present in the Eastern Cape rock and surf fishery fulfil the criteria required for the application of the SNA, suggesting that this approach may provide a suitable normative intervention for improving compliance to be used in conjunction with instrumental approaches in recreational fisheries.]]> Tue 21 May 2024 06:48:37 SAST ]]> High genetic diversity and limited spatial structure in an endangered, endemic South African sparid, the red steenbras Petrus rupestris: http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40440 Tue 20 Aug 2024 14:59:12 SAST ]]> Ocean warming, a rapid distributional shift, and the hybridization of a coastal fish species http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35777 Tue 14 May 2024 16:08:59 SAST ]]> Aspects of the biology and fisheries of an economically important sparid Dentex macrophthalmus (Bloch 1791) in the Namibe province, Angola http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35405 Tue 14 May 2024 04:52:13 SAST ]]> Behavioural observations of the common octopus Octopus vulgaris in Baía dos Tigres, southern Angola http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35419 Tue 14 May 2024 04:51:29 SAST ]]> Ontogenetic and seasonal shifts in the diet of Diplodus cervinus hottentotus (Pisces: Sparidae) in southern Angola http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35784 Tue 14 May 2024 04:51:00 SAST ]]> Diagnosing the sexual pattern of Diplodus cervinus hottentotus (Pisces: Sparidae) from southern Angola http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35589 Tue 14 May 2024 04:50:09 SAST ]]> Incipient genetic isolation of a temperate migratory coastal sciaenid fish (Argyrosomus inodorus) within the Benguela Cold Current system http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35652 Tue 14 May 2024 04:48:57 SAST ]]> Fish utilization of surf-zones.
