Title: Pharmaceuticals with Obesogen Action Impact Male Fertility Authors: Mascarenhas, C; Sousa, Ana Catarina; Rato, L Abstract: Obesogens have been identified as a significant factor associated with increasing obesity rates, particularly indeveloped countries. Substances with obesogenic traits are prevalent in consumer products, including certainpharmaceuticals. Specific classes of pharmaceuticals have been recognized for their ability to induce weight gain,often accompanied by hormonal alterations that can adversely impact male fertility.

Title: Population-specific bycatch risks in two vulnerable anadromous clupeids: insights from otolith microchemistry Authors: Nachon, David; Pico-Calvo, Alejandro; Daverat, Françoise; Vieira-Lanero, Rufino; Crujeiras, Rosa; Belo, Ana Filipa; Mateus, Catarina Sofia; Quintella, Bernardo; Almeida, Pedro Raposo; Antunes, Carlos; Bareille, Gilles; Pécheyran, Cristophe; Claverie, Fanny; Lambert, Patrick; Lassalle, Géraldine; Cobo, Fernando Abstract: Otolith microchemistry analysis revealed that bycatch of European shads—allis shad Alosa alosa (L. 1758) and twaite shad Alosa fallax (Lacépède 1803)— in western Iberian commercial fisheries removes individuals from a wide array of natal origins, with the most abundant source rivers suffering the heaviest losses. Spatial variation in bycatch risk was evident: specific marine areas exhibited high natal-origin diversity, reflecting complex dispersal. A. alosa showed extensive medium- and long-distance movements— including rare longitudinal displacements along the Cantabrian slope—and greater natal origin diversity than A. fallax, whose dispersal was largely restricted to middle-distance, latitudinal migrations. In both species, bycatches were dominated by the most abundant continental populations—Mondego and Minho for A. alosa, and Ulla and Minho for A. fallax—suggesting that these rivers function as source populations exporting individuals to sink populations through marine dispersal. Despite their differing dispersal ranges, both species displayed dual resident–dispersive contingents coexisting within the same populations, reflecting an interplay of river proximity, philopatry and resource availability. The stronger philopatry and constrained range of A. fallax imply heightened vulnerability to localized bycatch pressure near natal rivers, whereas A. alosa’s broader dispersal and higher origin diversity expose multiple populations to risk at a regional scale. These species-specific dispersal capacities and metapopulation structures critically shape bycatch vulnerability. Incorporating natal-origin and dispersal data into transnational, ecosystem-based management—such as targeted temporal or spatial fishing restrictions at mixing hotspots—will be essential to safeguard metapopulation dynamics, mitigate bycatch mortality, and maintain ecological connectivity among European shad populations.

Title: Report on the Current Legislation and Common Management Practices in the AA Region Authors: Boavida-Portugal, Joana; Julien, Elisabeth; Almeida, Pedro; Alexandre, Carlos; Silva, Sara; Quintella, Bernardo; Monteiro, Rui; Oliveira, Inês; Belo, Ana Filipa; Costa, José Lino; O'Leary, Ciara; Brett, Anthony; Poole, Russell; Lanero, Rufino; Beaulaton, Laurent; Lassalle, Géraldine; Baisez, Aurore; Mateus, Catarina Sofia Abstract: This document presents an overview of the current legislation and common management practices for diadromous fishes across the Atlantic Area (Portugal, Spain, France and Ireland), produced as a deliverable (D14) of the Interreg Atlantic Area project DiadSea - Transnational Cooperation to Improve the Management and Conservation of Diadromous Fish at Sea (EAPA_0011/2022) Interreg. Here we give an overview of the shared EU framework, national and regional contexts which shape management priorities and approaches. Diadromous fish populations in the region face a range of complex pressures, and the management responses - including regulatory measures, scientific knowledge, habitat restoration and community involvement- are implemented through cooperation between agencies, research institutions and local stakeholders.
