Oceanic Nekton
Composition of the Oceanic Nekton
Phylum: Chordata
• Notochord and
dorsal nerve cord
• Gill slits, and a
post-anal tail
• Tunicates (sea
squirts)
Class: Agnatha
• Jawless fish
• Lampreys and hagfish
• Represent ancestors of bony fish and
sharks
Class: Chondrichthyes
• Skeleton made of cartilage – adaptation to be
less buoyant
• Gill slits
• Placoid scales (origins same as teeth)
• Internal Fertilization – male clasper: lay eggs,
or live young
• Sense electric, chemical, magnetic cues
Sharks & Rays
Subclass:
Elasmobranchii
Bottom dwellers
(benthic)
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Skates, rays, and some sharks
Flattening of the body and expanded fins
Catch fish
Dig clams and worms from the sediment
Manta Rays are plankton feeders
Many lay eggs
May have a large, sharp, defensive spine
on the tail
Subclass: Elasmobranchii
Pelagic (open water) sharks
•
•
•
•
•
•
Streamlined torpedo-shaped bodies
1 or 2 dorsal fins
Pair of large pectoral fins
Pair of pelvic fins
Single ventral anal fin
Heterocercal caudal fin (upper lobe elongated)
Most predators
• Whale & basking shark are filter
feeders
Slow to mature with low reproductive
rates
Some lay eggs others have live birth
Shark Attacks
More people die from pigs each year in the
U.S. than sharks
Result because of mistaken identity
We put out sounds or odors like normal prey
• Possession of hooked or speared fish
thrashing in the water
• Splashing creates low frequency vibrations
that imitate the thrashing of a wounded
animal
How to Avoid a Shark Attack
• Always swim in a group
• Don’t wander too far from shore
• Avoid the water at night, dawn, or
dusk
• Don’t enter the water if bleeding
• Don’t wear shiny jewelry
• Don’t go into waters containing
sewage
• Avoid water being fished and
those with lots of bait fishes
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Don’t enter the water if sharks are present
Don’t splash a lot
Use care near sandbars or steep drop-offs
Avoid an uneven tan and brightly colored clothing
Don’t relax just because porpoises are nearby
Don’t try to touch a shark if you see one
If attacked: the general is “Do whatever it takes to
get away!”
Types of Shark Attacks
Provoked – caused by humans touching sharks
Unprovoked – sharks make the first contact, 3 forms
1. Hit-and-run – near beaches, mistake the
movements of humans for fish; legs and feet are
often bitten; injuries minor and deaths rarely
2. Sneak – deeper water; victim doesn’t see the
shark before the attack; serious injury or death,
especially if shark continues to attack
3. Bump-and-bite – shark circles and bumps the
victim with its head or body before biting; cause
serious injury or death
Sharks Under Attack
• Humans kill 20-30 million sharks per year
through commercial and sport fishing
Class: Osteichthyes – Bony fish
• Skeleton made of bone
• Gills protected by an operculum
• Expend energy to separate salt from water
to prevent dehydration
• Swim bladder in most
• Most reproduce externally
• Lateral lines – detect water motion and
vibrations
Bony Fish
Fin Design – Diversity of Fish
Wrasses - Use pectoral fins as oars
• Provides slow but precise motion
Seahorses & pipefish
• Limited motility to maintain camouflage
Triggerfish – undulate dorsal and anal fins
• Great control and ability to sink vertically or backward into
reef crevices
Eels – dorsal, anal & tail fins are fused
• Swim like snakes
Tuna – crescent-shaped tail
• Highly streamlined
Flying Fish – elongated pectoral fins like wings
Remoras – modified dorsal fin serves as a suction device
• Attach to sharks, turtles, whales for a free ride
• Detach to feed on scraps
Fishes
• Caudal fin – provides
thrust, and control the
fishes direction
• Pectorals – act mostly as
rudders and hydroplanes to
control yaw and pitch.
Also act as very important
brakes causing drag
• Pelvic fins – mostly
controls pitch
• Dorsal/anal – control roll
Fins
• Fusiform – swiftest of all
fish – torpedo shape
• Depressed – flatteneddorso ventrally – use
camouflage instead of
speed for survival
• Compressed – flattened –
side to side – gives fish
great agility for movement
and sudden bursts of speed
• Attenuated - Eel-like –
allows it to wiggle into
small crevices where it
hunts prey
Body Shapes
Body Shapes
Flatfish
• Begin life as ordinary fish
• One eye migrates over the top of the head to
the other side
• Many also have ability to alter their colors
to blend in
Behavior and Special Body Features
• Bioluminescence – built in light system
• Barbels – look like whiskers but are not
hairs. Used for feeling and tasting
• Anglerfishes – fishing lure – to attract prey
• Strange mouths – many animals mouths
allow them to feed on foods others cannot
catch or eat
• Electricity – produced by special body
organs
Importance of
Color
• Camouflage – blend in with surroundings
• Disruptive Coloration – spots and stripes break up the
body shape and conceal them against backgrounds
• False Eye Spots – May hide vulnerable parts of an
animal’s body
• Counter shading – dark backs blend in with the
darkness of the deep ocean and light bellies make it
hard for a predator to see them against
bright sunlit surface waters.
Importance of Color
• Advertising coloration – attracts attention
and advertises a special service
• Warning – Some animals are so well
protected with spines, poisons, and armor
that their coloration is a warning for other
species to stay away
Cleaning behavior
Specialized form of predation where small fish or
shrimps remove various ectoparasites from other
larger fish
Occurs on all reefs
Cleaning stations – advertise their presence through
bright, contrasting colors
• Fish to be cleaned remain motionless as the
cleaner moves over its body removing the
parasites
• May even enter the mouth and gill chambers of
fish
• Fish may line up at these stations

7 species
Limbs are modified as flippers
Shells smooth, plated, and lightly built
Inhabit warm seas
Some herbivorous others predaceous
Turtle skin is partially covered with scales
Sea Turtles
Turtles are the only reptiles with a
shell
Their extremities are always outside their
shell. The backbone of the turtle is fused to
their top shell as are their ribs.
Turtles
• The domed top of the turtle shell is called
the carapace
• The bottom part is called the plastron.
• The number and arrangement of bony
plates, on the carapace and plastron, can be
used to determine each species.
Turtles may have ectoparasites on
their shell and skin.
• do not harm the turtle, they are just hitching
a ride
• Barnacles often grow on turtle shells.
• Crabs may be found hanging onto skin folds
of marine turtles, especially around the tail.
Tagging Turtles
• Most species will not reproduce until they are 15-50 years
old.
• Male and female couples are seen mating in the ocean near
beaches.
• Male marine turtles have longer tails than the females
• Females come ashore at night to build nest and lay eggs
• A body pit is dug above the high tide line by the nesting
female
• About 100 eggs are laid
• Process is repeated 3 to 7 times at two-week intervals
• When nesting is finished they mate and sperm can be
stored for 2 or 3 years
• Eggs incubate for about 2 months
• get out of their egg case they use an "egg tooth" which is
on the tip of their mouth.
• Many are eaten by gulls
• Very few survive to become reproducing adults
All Marine Turtles are
Endangered
• Loss of nesting habitat
• Nesting females are poached
Nests are dug up and eggs taken
• Humans and wild animals
Caught and drowned in shrimp trawler nets
• Turtle exclusion device
Fibropapilloma
• Tumorous tissue growth
• More common in females
• Viruses – retro and herpes viruses
Effects
• Slower growth, reproduction? Can block
gut, eyes and lead to death
• Reduced immunity
Vector
• Saddle wrasses known to carry virus and
clean turtles

Case Study: Green Sea Turtle
Green-colored fat tissue
Chelonia mydas
Hatchlings weigh 1 oz; have carapace 2 in
Subadults avg 200-350lbs; with carapace at least
2 1/2 ft long
Adults – grow 4 ft and weigh up to 400lbs;
carapace mottled dark brown on
top and creamy white below
Carapace often covered in green algal
Males develop a single mating claw on
the trailing edge of their fore flippers
Distribution and Range
• Found throughout the world’s oceans
Feeding
• Green body fat because of the green algae
they eat
• Primarily herbivorous
• Juveniles are omnivorous feeding on
plankton – jellyfish and fish eggs
Reproduction
• Reach sexual maturity at 25 sometimes taking up
to 50 yrs
• Adults migrate from foraging grounds to nesting
grounds
• Males appear to migrate every year
• Females migrate every 2-4 years
• Mating starts in march
• Nesting occurs late April through September with
a peak in June and July
• Each female comes ashore as many as 5
times at 11 to 18 day intervals
• Dig a broad pit with fore flippers and an egg
chamber with rear flippers
• Deposit clutch of 100-120 ping pong ball
sized eggs
• Gently cover the nest by flinging dirt over it
with flippers
• T of the eggs during incubation determines
the gender: lower produces males
• Hatching occurs at night after about 60 days
• Hatchlings work as a group to dig to the
surface
• Head to the ocean attracted to the light
reflected off the ocean
• Seabirds, crabs and fish are often waiting
nearby to grab an easy meal
• Live up to 80 years
Predators
• Only natural predator = tiger sharks
• Hatchlings = fish, crabs, birds, or perhaps
cats or dogs
Humans are the main non-natural predators
• Eggs, meat, oil, and shell
Other Threats
• Entanglement in fishing gear and death from
bycatch
• US has reduced sea turtles deaths by requiring
trawlers to use turtle excluder devices
Plastics floating in ocean
• Block the digestive system and are toxic
Cigarette butts cannot digest filters which contain
toxic ingredients
Noise, lights and beach obstructions disrupt nesting
areas
• 50% of green turtles in Hawaii have
fibropapilloma
• Tumors the size of grapefruit grow over the
eyes, mouth, neck or flippers
• Tumors are not deadly but block the sight,
breathing, or feeding activities
Class: Aves - birds
•
•
•
•
•
Wings

Sea Bird Fun
Sea Birds vs Land Birds
Most black, white, brown, or mixtures
• Possibly because melanin strengthens feathers
Usually no plumage difference between the sexes or
age
Waterproof plumage and webbed feet
Specialized salt elimination glands either associated
with eyes or nostrils
Some try to catch rain drops to supplement drinking
saltwater
Sea Birds
Sea Birds
• Not technically nektonic since they fly over
the open ocean or swim on the surface
• Do feed in the upper layers and some may
dive to depths near 100m to feed
• Flightless penguins of the Southern
Hemisphere
How to Identify
•
•
•
•
Size
Shape and length of wings and tail
Color of soft parts (legs webbing and bill)
Flight patterns –gliding, soaring, flapping,
direct or erratic
• Height above water
• Landing on water
Sea bird feeding
All are predators
Cormorants, puffins, and penguins pursue their prey
underwater
• Powerful strokes of their webbed feet
• May flap wings also
Pelicans, ospreys, kingfisher, and terns spot their
prey from the air and drop into the water to catch
Skimmers fly along the surface with their lower beak
trailing in the water
Shorebirds concentrate on invertebrates inhabiting
the rocks and sand beaches
Sea Birds of the World
• Order: Procellariiformes (albatross,
shearwaters, petrels, storm-petrels)
• Order Pelecaniformes (tropicbirds, boobies,
frigatebirds)
• Order Charadriiformes (shorebirds, jaegers,

S. Hemisphere
Lost the power of flight – “fly” by flapping
wings underwater
• Only bird that doesn’t have hollow bones
Feathers are modified to provide insulation
• Layer of fat under the skin
Feed on fish, squid, and shrimp
Penguin
Good Parents
• Males and females form a pair
bond and then work together
caring for the chicks
Most nest in huge rookeries
Most species only raise one chick per year and
no species raises more than 2
Emperor and king penguins do not build nests
of any kind
• Keep the egg and chick on their feet for
warmth

80% of deaths are due to road kills
• Dog kills, harassment, poaching, drowning,
extreme drought and old age
Habitat
• Most found on Big Pine Key because of its
size and high quality habitat
• Must have fresh water in their habitat every
month of the year
Future
Greatest threats

Toothed Whales
Dolphins and
Driftnets
Gill Net – wall of netting meshes form a noose
around the heads and bodies of fish

places limits on the # of dolphins that can
be taken as bycatch
1990 intense letter-writing campaign
• 3 major U.S. tuna companies agreed to no
longer purchase tuna caught in purse seine
nets
Echolocation
• Dolphin can determine the difference between a
kernel of corn and a ball bearing from 49 feet
• High frequency sound transmitted over long
distances
• Single echo tells the animal the shape, size,
density, and location of an object
• Sound is produced in air sacs attached to the
respiratory tract
• Directed through fatty deposits in their melons.
• Feels or hears the click echo in its jawbone
• The information is passed to the middle ear and
then the brain for processing
Echolocation

12 to 30
Allow the animal to expand its mouth (3X)
during feeding
Song of the Humpback
Songs of the Humpback Whale
How they create these sounds in unknown
• do not have functional vocal cords
• May be various valves and muscles in a series of
blind sacs in the respiratory tract
• Highest and lowest frequencies humans can hear
Song is most complex in the animal kingdom
• Only males sing
• May serve as a reproductive function to attract
females, scare away other males, or maintain distance
(territory)
• Males in a population sing the same song
Song is in a constant state of evolution
• Themes may be introduced or changed
