Who Is Who: An Anomalous Predator-Prey Role Exchange between Cyprinids and Perch
Piscivory in cyprinids (Cyprinidae) is extremely rare. Specifically, common bream (Abramis brama) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) are...

Small fish use the hypoxic pelagic zone as a refuge from predators
1) Juvenile perch (Perca fluviatilis) often inhabit deep zones of lakes or reservoirs (metalimnion to hypolimnion). Using fry trawling and...

The influence of the trawl mouth opening size and net colour on catch efficiency during sampling of early stages of perch (Perca fluviatilis) and pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) in the bathypelagic layer of a canyon-shaped reservoir
The efficiency of different sized (0.5 m × 2 m, 1 m × 2 m, 2 m × 2 m, 4 m × 2 m) and coloured (black, white) ichthyoplankton trawl nets was...
