Black bass

When comparing mercury concentrations in several different fish species, it becomes necessary to differentiate between the broad categories of species composition fish rcinge from being planktivores (eg., cisco Ooregonus) to omnivores (eg., bullhead Ictalurus) to predators Ug., black bass Micropterus).

Sparse, moody, smoking around them. Colourless wasn t the word, with the old-fashioned artistry of a black and white photographer she had stripped it all back to a desolate beauty. It was all light and shade, a trail along wide horizons and burning skies then sudden tunnels, bass line like a python weaving beneath the canopy of percussion. Music so spacious you could stretch right out inside it and still not reach the furthest extremities. 

Two sea bass species—the Japanese sea bass Lateolabrax japonicus (Cuvier) and the European bass Dicentrarchus labrax (Linnaeus) were brought for intentional introduction from desalinated waters of the Japan Sea. Both species are from time to time recorded in the northwestern part of the Black Sea. The European bass Dicentrarchus labrax is regularly caught in the Black Sea [79], although in small amounts. 

The attempt of intentional introduction of five fish species from the estuaries of the Japan Sea, the Amur River, and other rivers of Southeast Asia was not successful two sea bass species occur as isolated individuals and only the pond carps and amurs dwell in freshwater lagoons, rivers, and deltas of the Black Sea, but their populations are supported by artificial reproduction. Two fern species and strains of Vibrio cholerae were brought from the same regions. 

The fauna of the Black Sea is extremely diverse, and includes about 2300 species, among them fishes (192 species) and mammals (four species). The major part of the ichthyofauna (60%) consists of species of a Mediterranean-Atlantic origin that permanently dwell in the Black Sea. The ichthyofauna also includes Pontian-Caspian relics (bullhead and sardelle), Boreal-Atlantic relics (sprat, Black Sea salmon, and whiting), and freshwater fishes inhabiting near-mouth regions of the sea (carp, bream, pikeperch, bass, and others).
