the graceful prinia ( prinia gracilis ) is a small warbler ( in some older works it is referred to as graceful warbler ) .

this prinia is a resident breeder in northeast africa ( the nile valley in particular ) and southern asia , from egypt and somalia east to pakistan and north india , where it is sometimes called streaked wren-warbler .

this active passerine bird is typically found in shrub or tall grass in a variety of habitats with thick undergrowth , tamarisks or similar cover .

graceful prinia builds its nest in a bush or grass and lays 3-5 eggs .

these 10 – 11 cm long warblers have short rounded wings , and a long tapering tail with each feather tipped with black and white .

in breeding plumage , adults are grey-brown above , with dark streaking .

the underparts are whitish with buff flanks , and the bill is short and black .

the sexes are similar .

in winter , adults are brighter sandy brown above with weaker streaking , there is more buff on the sides , and the bill is paler .

there are 12 subspecies , of which p. g. akyildizi , of southern turkey is the darkest , brownest , and most heavily streaked above , and has the brightest buff flanks .

the long tail is often cocked , and the flight of this species is weak .

like most warblers , graceful prinia is insectivorous .

the call is a rolling trilled breep , and the song is a hard rolling repletion of zerlip .

justification : this species has an extremely large range , and hence does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the range size criterion ( extent of occurrence < 20 , 000 km 2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size , habitat extent / quality , or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation ) . the population trend appears to be stable , and hence the species does not approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the population trend criterion ( > 30 % decline over ten years or three generations ) . the population size has not been quantified , but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for vulnerable under the population size criterion ( < 10 , 000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be > 10 % in ten years or three generations , or with a specified population structure ) . for these reasons the species is evaluated as least concern .
the global population size has not been quantified . in europe , the breeding population is estimated to number 1 , 000 - 4 , 000 breeding pairs , equating to 3 , 000 - 12 , 000 individuals ( birdlife international 2015 ) , but europe forms < 5 % of the global range . the population in egypt is estimated at in excess of 100 , 000 pairs ( ryan 2006 ) . trend justification : the population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats . the european population is estimated to be fluctuating ( birdlife international 2015 ) .
the species is vulnerable to extreme weather . in turkey , the population fell by c . 80 % following an especially severe winter in 1991 / 2 ( ryan 2006 ) .
conservation actions underway there are no known current conservation measures for this species within europe . conservation actions proposed areas of important suitable habitat for this species should be identified and protection ensured . research studies on the species ' s ecology and potential threats and impacts should be developed to inform conservation measures .

the brown rockfish ( sebastes auriculatus ) , whose other names include brown seaperch , chocolate bass , brown bass , and brown bomber , is a species of ray-finned fish in the family sebastidae .

brown rockfish

the brown rockfish have deep bodies with different mottled shades of brown covering them .
brown rockfish – sebastes auriculatus . other common names for this fish : chocolate bass , brown bass , bolina , and brown bomber .
light brown with dark brown mottling . dark brown blotch on upper part of gill cover , may be faint in large individuals . usually pinkish coloring on underside and fins .
stout body . olive brown to reddish brown , mottled with pale areas of white to pink . lower lip is orange
typical rockfish shape . their coloring is light brown with darker brown mottling . a very prominent dark brown spot on the opercle ( gill cover ) most easily identifies brown rockfish . sometimes confused with copper rockfish but the coppers do not have the dark spot on the opercle and are lighter colored . up in the northern waters of puget sound hybridization between brownies , quillbacks and coppers can really confuse identification .
description : brown rockfish are heavy bodied and colored various shades of brown , with dark brown to blackish mottling over the top . red - brown , brown or orangish stripes radiate back from the eye and upper jaw . one key characteristic for this species is a prominent dark brown blotch on the upper part of the gill cover , which tends to become faint in large individuals . brown rockfish have pinkish fins and pinkish coloring on the underside of the throat or lower jaw . they can be mistaken as coppers , which do not have the dark spot on the gill cover and tend to be lighter in color along the lateral line . in puget sound , the apparent hybridization of quillback , copper and brown rockfish make species identification especially difficult .

body color : light brown mottled w / dark brown ; a dark blotch on upper portion of opercle , fins dusky - pink . ( also see above underwater photo . )
many people also enjoy the red varieties , such as vermillion or copper rockfish . these are fine fish , but not very different than the more common black , brown , and olive rockfish .
slate - brown mottled with yellow and orange . deeply incised membranes on spinous dorsal fin . strong head spines . orange or brown mottling ventrally on head and anterior part of body . brown “freckles” on gill cover and throat . first dorsal fin with yellow streak . deeply incised spinous dorsal fin .
no information could be obtained describing the mating behaviors of copper rockfish or any of the various rockfish species .
there is a characteristic dark brown spot on their gill covers that other rockfish of the same coloring don’t have , and sometimes fades away as they age .

copper rockfish are not yet theatened , however other rockfish species are endangered . rockfish are a valuable game fish and it is important for precautions to be implemented to prevent overfishing . this is especially important with rockfish populations since the fish have long lifespans with their reproductive capacity increasing as they age .
variable coloration : dark brown or olive brown to copper with pink or yellow blotches , white undersides . dorsal fins dark copper brown to black with some white . rear two - thirds of lateral line is light . fish from south of point blanco , or , often have more pronounced ( deeply incised ) spines and have orange - pink and coppery - yellow coloration and a dark

orange - brown or tan above , yellow tan below , tips of jaws and lower fin membranes blackened , covered with small black spots .
similar to splitnose rockfish ( s . diploproa ) in color and body shape .
distinguished in the field from canary rockfish ( s . pinniger ) and yelloweye rockfish ( s . ruberrimus ) by scales on lower jaw and vermilion red coloration .
the copper rockfish , as well as other rockfish species that live in the california coastal waters , are very important to commercial and sport fisheries . the 60 species of rockfish caught account for 34 % by weight of all sportfish landed in california .

for example , this sichuan sweet and sour crispy fish recipe is a fantastic introduction to oil frying a whole rockfish . for steamed rockfish filets , try this ginger - soy fish recipe . you can also use rockfish with a japanese simmering sauce or simply grill it and serve it with lemon and salt as is customary in the mediterranean .
brassy brown to dusky , lighter ventrally . membranes of fins dark ( lighter on spinous dorsal ) . caudal peduncle is narrow . anal fin has a strong posterior slant . strongly rounded ( convex ) for head .
pores on lower jaw very large . similar to rougheye rockfish ( s . aleutianus ) , which has 2 to 10 spines below eye , rather than 0 to 1 for shortraker rockfish , and long gill rakers on first arch .
brownies can live to 34 years in age although few reach 25 years , a relatively short life for members of the rockfish family . a few fish mature and reproduce at 7 . 4 inches and 3 years of age , most mature between 9 . 4 - 12 . 1 inches and 4 - 5 years , all are mature by 14 . 8 inches and 10 years of age . these fish can be a lot of fun for youngsters to catch but most caught from piers are really too small to keep . according to the california fish and game “the brown rockfish has been identified as a species vulnerable to severe localized depletions in other areas ; in washington state , the puget sound stock of brown rockfish was recommended for listing as a threatened species in 1999 . ”

rockfish are one of the longest - living fishes , possibly living to 200 years old in the gulf of alaska . that means a rockfish on today ' s dinner menu could have been swimming the sea when abraham lincoln was delivering his gettysburg address .
table 1 . summary of the status of rockfish stocks in puget sound ( wdfw ) ( palsson et al . 2009 ) .
copper rockfish larvae are independent once they are released inshore . the female provides internal nourishment to the embryos until they are released .
at all life stages , copper rockfish are eaten by other fish . they also eat different types of fish and marine invertebrates .
rockfish is also frequently sold whole or scaled and gutted . you & apos ; ll mostly find the whole rockfish in asian markets . high - end western markets are selling the whole fish with more frequency as more people discover the joy and ease of cooking them .

rockfish form a diverse assemblage of fish in puget sound and throughout their range . in puget sound , rockfish have abundances decreased substantially since quantitative monitoring began in the 1970s . these declines have resulted in the federal listing of three species under the endangered species act . because of their diversity in habitat use , ecology and life history , single - species approaches to rockfish management in puget sound are currently being considered .
their overall color is variable but a copper - brown color with darker fins is generally observed . patches of yellow or copper are also present , usually near the gill coverings . they are distinguished from other rockfish species by the clear areas along the posterior two thirds of the lateral lines , and in having a whitish underside . they have 13 dorsal and 3 anal spines that are mildly venomous .
table 2 . proposed species of interest , habitats and reason for their selections in the draft puget sound rockfish management plant ( wdfw ) .
very similar to black - and - yellow rockfish genetically , in behavior and in life history . markings are also similar , but black - and - yellow rockfish adult color is olivaceous to black in dark portion , yellow in light sections , and it has a gray lower lip .
the brown rockfish is a sedentary fish that lives either alone or in small groups . it feeds mainly at night , using the day to rest , taking shelter amongst rocks , algae and floating objects . juveniles inhabit shallow waters but during their development , they venture into deeper waters , reaching 120 metres in depth as adults . in its dorsal and pectoral fins it has venomous spines that inflict painful wounds .
this species is distinguished from other rockfish by a prominent dark patch near the operculum , which probably inspired its scientific name auriculatus , meaning “eared” .
tagging and tracking studies have shown that many rockfish are homebodies . they travel short distances , if at all , and return to their home base if placed in another locale . tagging and tracking rockfish is difficult . even though rockfish regulate the amount of air in their air bladders , the air bladders explode when the fish are brought to the surface quickly . researchers tag fishes after deflating their air bladders under water at appropriate depths .
rockfish are very common in the pacific ocean . more than 70 different varieties of this bass - like fish swim around the north american shorelines . they & apos ; re also found down to depths of 300 feet or more . depending on the species , rockfish can grow from one to 40 pounds .
you will usually find rockfish sold as skinless fillets . it & apos ; s not uncommon for them to be incorrectly labeled as
snapper ,
either . rockfish , while tasty , do not have anywhere near as fine a flavor as real red snapper , which only lives in the atlantic ocean .

one of the smaller species of rockfish . very abundant in california waters . does not occur in the gulf of alaska . an important prey item for other fishes and seabirds .
if you buy a whole rockfish , there are two preferred ways to prepare it : crispy - fry it in oil or steam it . crispy - frying takes advantage of the rockfish & apos ; s firmness while steaming highlights its delicate flavor . both methods have been perfected by the asian - american community , so look to these sources for inspiration .
copper rockfish can live to be decades old and take several years to become sexually mature . once mature , females generally produce a higher number of eggs each year . these traits are important for the survival of the species since a relatively low percentage of young survive each year . few if any efforts have been made to breed copper rockfish in captivity .

using the abundances and trends from all available fishery - independent data , palsson et al . ( 2009 ) classified each rockfish species as healthy , precautionary , vulnerable or depleted . these status categories are based on those used by the american fisheries society ( musick 1999 ) . for the two rockfish species for which demographic data were most available ( quillback and copper rockfish ) , designations were made based on current spawners per recruit ( spr ) relative to 1970s spr ( proxy for an unfished population ) and 1999 spr ( palsson et al . 2009 ) .
copper rockfish are found in waters along the pacific coast ranging from baja , california up to kehui , alaska . they are common in the waters of british columbia and in puget sound .
orange or yellow with greenish mottling dorsally , lighter ventrally . four to five squarish white spots tinged or bordered with light pink on back . long second anal fin spine . a small rockfish .
similar to bocaccio ( s . paucispinis ) which has shorter second anal fin spine . silvergray rockfish has 17 or 18 pectoral fin rays , 7 ( or rarely 8 ) anal fin rays , and 33 to 36 total gill rakers ; the numbers for bocaccio are 14 to 16 , 8 to 10 , and 27 to 32 . symphyseal knob is more prominent in the silvergray rockfish .
rockfish live in a variety of habitats . some live on rocky reefs or seafloors in nearshore shallow waters . others live on the deep seafloor or in the water column . in giant kelp forests , rockfish hover motionless under the kelp canopy , buoyed by their air bladders . some species rest on rocks at the bottom of the kelp forest , with creatures like sea cucumbers and abalone .

spawning in copper rockfish occurs once a year in the spring at a time that varies geographically . fertilization occurs internally , and little is known about the specific courtship or mating behaviors . females move inshore to release their young and are capable of regulating where and when larvae are released . this is thought to be dependant on environmental conditions . as is true of other rockfish species , fecundity is related to length .
a new management plan has recently been proposed by wdfw which outlines several possible management options for rockfish in puget sound and is currently under review ( wdfw 2009 ) . one of the key components of this plan is the recommendation that quillback , copper , black , yelloweye , bocaccio , canary and puget sound rockfish be managed as individual species due to their importance to recreational fisheries , conservation concerns , or ecological importance ( wdfw 2009 ) ( table 2 ) . in addition to these proposed changes in management , there are currently 16 marine reserves throughout puget sound that include the rocky habitat thought to be beneficial for rockfish .

while there are taste differences in several varieties , all rockfish—also known as rock cod or pacific snapper—are firm , lean , and mild - flavored . it & apos ; s a very versatile fish : from fried to grilled and steamed to raw , you have plenty of options for preparing it . it & apos ; s fantastic in almost any fish recipe and if you have a recipe that doesn & apos ; t specify a type of fish , rockfish would be a great choice .

the pictures were taken at sea or on freshly landed fish . special thanks go to the commercial fishermen and processors for their help in making the fish available for photographing . we also wish to thank dr . howard horton ( retired fisheries professor at oregon state university ) for his excellent color photo of canary rockfish .
rockfish is packed with protein ; an average serving has almost 33 grams . as with most fish , it is full of omega - 3 fatty acids that help reduce the risk of heart disease . it & apos ; s a good source of vitamin d and potassium as well and can help prevent high blood pressure .
egg production differs with each species , and canary rockfish can produce as many as 1 , 000 , 000 eggs at one time . fertilization is internal for all rockfishes , and the females supply nutrients internally to the developing larvae . four to five weeks after fertilization , females give birth to larvae about the size of an eyelash .

if you have a skinless fillet , use it in any fillet recipe . rockfish is excellent when dredged in flour and sauteed . try it with your favorite recipe or seasoning blend and see how it compares to fish you & apos ; ve used before . you might be pleasantly surprised at its clean taste . it & apos ; s also good when batter - fried or made into tempura .
rockfish come in more than 100 species and many different shapes , sizes and color patterns . colors vary from black and drab green to bright orange and red , and some rockfishes wear stripes or splotches . their heads feature large eyes and thick , broad mouths that dip downward at the corners . rockfishes are known for the bony plates on their heads and bodies and the heavy spines on their fins .
if you don & apos ; t want to cook your rockfish whole , but bought it that way , fillet the fish out as usual . be sure to keep the heads and bones for fish stock . this lean , clean - tasting fish is perfect for that , so take advantage of your trimmings . preserve your stock and use it later to create amazing dishes like a classic normandy sauce .
the main difference between rockfish is their texture and color . the varieties are often named for their primary color . china cod is an exception , though it & apos ; s often considered one of the best . this small black variety is easy to spot because it has a yellow racing stripe running along its back . it is especially fine - textured , which means it can bruise easily , and it often commands a high price .
copper rockfish are demersal , preferring the ocean bottom near low - profile rocks and reefs . the range of water depths they inhabit is relatively broad , from 10 to 183 meters , and the fish are found in shallower water during upwelling . most often , these fish are in close contact with reefs , maintaining an even closer contact during the winter and spring than in the summer months . tagging experiments have suggested that mature fish do not move far from their home location .

a taxon identifier is composed of name , author , year and attribute , all separated by a blank . these are all extracted from the original publication .
the name is reproduced exactly as proposed in the original publication . the name of a genus is made up of one word and species made up of two words ( genus and species ) separated by a blank .
the author ' s name is made up of a string of letters , with no blanks , and multiple authors ' names are separated by a comma . spelling of author ' s name is based on the original publication . if there are more than three authors , only the names of the first two authors are shown , followed by
, +
and the number of omitted authors .
attribute is enclosed in square brackets . this is rarely needed , but to differentiate homo - identifiers , this will contain the page , line or plate number of original publication .
all diacritic marks , hyphens , and apostrophes are eliminated , thus only the following characters are used : a to z , a to z , 0 to 9 , blank , comma , and opening and closing square brackets . although upper and lower cases are used for the convenience of human recognition , it is not case sensitive .
