2017 article

Tracing Dietary Mercury Histochemically, with Autometallography, through the Liver to the Ovaries and Spawned Eggs of the Spot, a Temperate Coastal Marine Fish

Govoni, J. J., Morris, J. A., & Evans, D. W. (2017, July 7). Journal of Aquatic Animal Health.

By: J. Govoni n, J. Morris* & D. Evans*

MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Fishes / metabolism; Humans; Liver / metabolism; Liver / pathology; Mercury / administration & dosage; Mercury / metabolism; Ovary / metabolism; Ovary / pathology; Water Pollutants, Chemical / administration & dosage; Water Pollutants, Chemical / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Mercury impact and mitigation studies; Heavy Metal Exposure and Toxicity; Heavy metals in environment
TL;DR: Overall, the intensity and prevalence of Hg-sulfide granules were greater in the liver, ovaries, and eggs from treatment Spot than in those from controls, and the tissue and cellular distribution of Hgsulfidegranules differed. (via Semantic Scholar)

2015 article

Age, growth, and long-distance dispersal in the western North Atlantic of vexillifer larvae of the pearlfish, Echiodon dawsoni, with notes on Carapus bermudensis (Ophidiiformes: Carapidae)

Govoni, J. J., Terwilliger, M., & Markle, D. F. (2015, January 21). Ichthyological Research.

By: J. Govoni n, M. Terwilliger * & D. Markle *

author keywords: Echiodon dawsoni; Carapus bermudensis; Vexillifers; Growth; Dispersal
topics (OpenAlex): Marine and fisheries research; Fish Ecology and Management Studies; Fish Biology and Ecology Studies
TL;DR: The occurrence of vexillifers of Ec.dawsoni north of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, USA, indicates long-distance dispersal to inhospitable habitats and might be related to their spawning farther offshore than C. bermudensis, in regions where their vexill ifers are more likely to be entrained into the Gulf Stream and transported northeastward.
