    Notes: Planktonic postlarvae of yellow fin bream Acanthopagrus australis were found at surf bar entrances to Moreton Bay, a large subtropical estuarine system on the east coast of Australia. The postlarvae occurred from April to September with peak abundance during July to September. Most postlarvae entered the estuary at night during the full moon. They were more abundant on the flood and full tides than on the ebb tide. The transition from planktonic to littoral existence occurs from August to November when the fish are 13-14 mm in length. Young yellow fin bream in littoral areas reach a modal length in excess of 100 mm after 1 year.

    Notes: Abstract The fishes occurring in a subtropical mangrove (Avicennia marina) area in Moreton Bay, Australia, were studied for one year (November 1987 to November 1988, inclusive). Fishes within the mangroves were sampled using a block net, whilst those in adjacent waters were sampled using seine and gill nets. Forty six percent of the species, 75% of the number of fishes and 94% of the biomass taken during the study (all methods combined) were of direct importance to regional fisheries. The fish community utilising the habitat within the mangrove forest differed from that occurring in adjacent waters in terms of density, standing crop, species composition and diversity-index values. Standing-crop estimates for the fishes occurring within the mangroves (study period mean ± SD = 25.3 ± 20.4 g m−2) were amongst the highest recorded values for estuarine areas whilst those for adjacent waters (2.9±2.3 g m−2) were comparable to those of other estuarine studies.
