This often solitary fish has a remarkable manner of feeding. To obtain its diet of shrimps, worms, small crabs, periwinkles and other molluscs, the white steenbras blows a strong jet of water into the burrow in which the animal lives. This jet stream, created by the pumping action of the powerful gill covers forcing water through the narrow mouth, effectively blows the prey from its shelter (3). In extremely shallow water, the tail of the white steenbras is often seen poking through the water's surface, as it works, snout down, to blast prey out of the sandy or muddy substrate (3).
Following a summer spent near the Western Cape, the white steenbras migrates to the eastern coasts of South Africa where it is known to spawn from June to August (2) (3). After the fertilisation and hatching of the eggs, the resulting juveniles enter estuaries. Here they will remain, certainly for the first year of their life, sometimes staying for over two years (2). The white steenbras is sexually mature at about six years of age, and around 65 centimetres in length, at which time it moves from the surf zone areas of beaches into deeper coastal waters (2).
Conservation
(
英語
)
由Arkive提供
Measures are now in place to help ensure the future survival of this valuable South African species (4). The white steenbras is a protected species in South Africa (3), and severe fishing restrictions have been implemented (4), including a minimum catch size of 40 centimetres (3).
Description
(
英語
)
由Arkive提供
Often shimmering with a mother-of-pearl sheen, the white steenbras is a silvery-grey fish, with a whiter underside (3). Seven dark vertical bars pattern each side of the rather elongated body (3), which are often darker in younger, smaller white steenbras (2). It has a long snout and a narrow mouth surrounded by thick lips, and the jaws bear tiny teeth (3).
Habitat
(
英語
)
由Arkive提供
Small, juvenile white steenbras can be found in shallow water in estuaries, while larger juveniles typically occur in the surf zone areas of sandy beaches. Adult white steenbras are found in coastal waters down to a depth of 25 metres (2).
Range
(
英語
)
由Arkive提供
The white steenbras occurs only in South Africa, where it is found from the Orange River to southern KwaZulu-Natal (2).
Status
(
英語
)
由Arkive提供
Classified as Lower Risk / Conservation Dependent (LR/cd) on the IUCN Red List (1).
Threats
(
英語
)
由Arkive提供
This popular food fish, and favourite of anglers, was once abundant around the coasts of South Africa, but numbers have now been severely reduced (4) (5). Both over-fishing and habitat degradation are held responsible for the decrease in both commercial and recreational catches of this species off the Eastern Cape coast (4) (5). The dependence of juvenile white steenbras on estuarine habitats makes them highly vulnerable to habitat degradation, as estuaries are typically greatly affected by the activities of humans, while the tendency of this species to aggregate when spawning makes it vulnerable to heavy fishing pressure (4).
Trophic Strategy

由Fishbase提供
Feeds on benthic organisms and plants (Ref. 12563).

Migration
(
英語
)
由Fishbase提供
Amphidromous. Refers to fishes that regularly migrate between freshwater and the sea (in both directions), but not for the purpose of breeding, as in anadromous and catadromous species. Sub-division of diadromous. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.Characteristic elements in amphidromy are: reproduction in fresh water, passage to sea by newly hatched larvae, a period of feeding and growing at sea usually a few months long, return to fresh water of well-grown juveniles, a further period of feeding and growing in fresh water, followed by reproduction there (Ref. 82692).
Diagnostic Description

Silvery in color, crossbars fade with age.

Biology

由Fishbase提供
Found over sandy substrate, in estuaries and oceanic waters. Enters lagoons (Ref. 3198). Feeds bottom invertebrates, including worms, crabs and shrimp (Ref. 27121). Spawns in the sea but uses estuaries as nursery grounds. Prime angling fish. Important food fish. Sold fresh and whole in markets.

Witsteenbras
(

)
由wikipedia AF提供
Die Witsteenbras (Lithognathus lithognathus) is 'n vis wat endemies is aan Suider-Afrika en van Angola tot by die Tugelarivier voorkom. In Engels staan die vis bekend as die White steenbras.
Voorkoms
Die vis se kop en lyf is silwer met sewe vertikale donker strepe oor die lyf. Die vis word ongeveer 1,5 m lank en 30 kg swaar.
Habitat
Die vis verkies vlak water oor sand en naby riwwe in water wat 1 – 25 m diep is. Die volwasse visse van die Wes-Kaap migreer na die Oos-Kaap gedurende Junie tot Augustus om daar kuit te skiet en in die somer keer hulle terug. Dit is 'n gesogte eet- en hengelvis, maar die populasie is egter onder bedreiging.

White steenbras

由wikipedia EN提供
The white steenbras (Lithognathus lithognathus) is a species of fish in the family Sparidae[2] endemic to South Africa.[1] Due to overfishing, primarily by seine netting operations in False Bay, the white steenbras is now endangered and is about to become a 'no keep' species in South Africa. Massive breeding shoals are illegally wiped out by beach seine netters each year,[3] with the authorities doing little to prevent this.[4] The species was identified as a priority for research, management and conservation in a National Linefish Status Report.[5]
