The first assessment of the demographics of Lagocephalus inermis, a species associated with pufferfish bites and fishing down the food web in the Arabian Sea, south-west coast of India, was performed based on length structured population dynamics of 1601 individuals caught in commercial fisheries. Analysis revealed that the current level of exploitation is 90% of the predicted exploitation producing maximum relative yield per recruit (E ), suggesting high levels of exploitation with potential for significant negative consequences for trophic cascades.

The climate fluctuations during the Late Pleistocene significantly influenced the phylogeographic structure and historical dynamics of marine fishes in the marginal seas of the western Pacific Ocean. The puffer fish, , holds substantial nutritional and economic value in the South China Sea. To investigate the demographic history and population structure of the , the mitochondrial DNA and Cyt gene datasets from 300 individuals across eight populations in the South China Sea were sequenced.

The Mediterranean Sea and its exceptional biodiversity suffer from non-indigenous (NIS) and invasive species. These result from Lessepsian migration and human activities. Species with the highest negative impact include Pterois miles, Lagocephalus sceleratus and Fistularia commersonii.

We propose a Leslie matrix model for the population dynamics of Sicyopterus lagocephalus in La Réunion. In order to capture both the amphidromous and the seasonal natures of the species' life history the model has four stages (sea+three river sites) and is cyclical with a 12 month period. Baseline parameters (age-specific fecundity, spatial dispersion patterns and survival rates) were chosen in such a way that the dominant eigenvalue of the year-on-year projection matrix is 1.
