Comparison of catch, CPUE and length distribution of spawning aggregations of mutton snapper (Lutjanus analis) and grey triggerfish (Balistes capriscus) on a Mesoamerican coral reef

This study evaluates the habitat characteristics, fishing effort, and production, as well as changes in the individuals, such as changes in size frequency, of the spawning aggregations of mutton snapper Lutjanus analis and grey triggerfish Balistes capriscus , caught in the Chinchorro Bank Biosphere Reserve (CBBR), Mexico. The mutton snapper aggregation was located in coral patches, while the spawning aggregation of grey triggerfish was located on the windward terrace of the reef flat. Fishery data was obtained for the duration of the spawning event in 2008, with a total of 5 days for mutton snapper and 4 days for grey triggerfish. The fishery recorded a total of 830 mutton snappers, with individual sizes ranging from 40 to 77 cm in fork length (FL). Individual size and catch per unit effort (CPUE) decreased through time, with the lowest values presented at the end of the 5 days. In contrast, a total of 665 grey triggerfish were recorded in the catch, ranging from 45 to 61 cm (FL) with the largest sizes caught at the end of the fishing period, concurrently with the lowest CPUE. A lack of governance allowed both species to be harvested during their spawning aggregations. The creation of an international body composed of fishers, managers, conservationists, and scientists from the countries belonging to the Mesoamerican Reef System is urgently required to look for agreements in conservation and management strategies of these commercially important species.

Fish community and single-species indicators provide evidence of unsustainable practices in a multi-gear reef fishery

Using information on the species composition and length-frequencies of fish caught in the spear and hook and line fisheries of Glover’s Reef Marine Reserve, Belize, we evaluated changes between 2004–2010 and 2011–2017 in single-species and ecosystem sustainability indicators. The two gears differed in species caught, and both changed species composition between time periods, with the line fishers targeting smaller species, and the spear fishers responding to a parrotfish ban by catching more snappers and small groupers, as well as grey angels. Both gears caught smaller fish in 2011–2017 compared to 2004–2010, indicating overfishing. Species often caught immature were black grouper, Nassau grouper and mutton snapper with spears, and black snapper with lines. Most fish of other species were mature, but many were smaller than the optimal size for harvest. Fishing mortality rates were higher than natural mortality rates for most species in both gears in both time periods, whether calculated from average length or by length-based spawning potential ratio (LBSPR), implying that most populations were experiencing overfishing. Many species also had a low spawning potential ratio, implying a high probability that they were overfished. In general, many species were subject to unsustainable levels of fishing, and, according to the Froese indicators, some would benefit from size limits to protect immature individuals. These results are supported despite uncertainty in life history parameters for fishes in Belize, and differences between data poor assessment methods.

Biometric relation between body size and otolith size of seven commercial fish species of the south-western Atlantic

Given the importance and applicability of these biometric relations, the present work aimed to verify the existence of correlations between the length of saggitae otoliths and the body size of seven south-western Atlantic marine fish species and to generate equations to estimate the body size of these species through otolith measurements. Fifty otoliths of Centropomus parallelus, Centropomus undecimalis, Lutjanus analis, Lutjanus jocu, Lutjanus synagris, Chaetodipterus faber and Mugil curema were collected for analysis. Significant relations between otolith length and total length and otolith width and total length were found for all the species. The highest coefficient of determination was observed for Centropomus undecimalis and Lutjanus synagris, for both relations, and the lowest was observed for Mugil curema. The results show that estimates of body size of the species through biometric analyses of otoliths are reliable. Based on this, the equations generated to obtain the total length of the fish using biometric otolith data can be used in dietary studies of top predators and in paleontological recostructions of modern fish.

Occurrence of larvae of trypanorhynch cestodes in snappers (Lutjanidae) from northeast Brazil.

Three species of snappers from artisanal, small-scale fisheries were examined for the presence of parasites. A total of 139 lutjanid fish were collected: 69 specimens of Lutjanus analis, 47 specimens of Lutjanus vivanus, and 23 specimens of Lutjanus synagris. Encysted plerocercoid of trypanorhynch cestodes found at necropsy in the viscera of snappers were sampled for parasitological analysis. These plerocercoid larvae belong to the genera Floriceps, Pseudogrillotia , and Oncomegas. Although these parasites do not have any zoonotic potential, fish with heavy loads of plerocercoids are rejected during inspection as they compromise meat hygiene. Our findings suggest that light larval cestode infections in lutjanids would not lead to consumer rejection of the food product. The occurrence of Floriceps sp. in L. analis and in L. synagris, of Pseudogrillotia sp. in L. vivanus and in L. synagris , and of Oncomegas sp. in L. synagris are new findings in these fish species. These parasites are new to these fish species and have not been reported in snappers from the northeast coast of Brazil. The results contribute to the existing body of knowledge about the parasitic fauna of fish and its distribution along the coastline of Brazil.

Spawning migration movements of Mutton Snapper in Tortugas, Florida: Spatial dynamics within a marine reserve network

A marine reserve’s effectiveness for sustaining transient spawning reef fish populations is dependent on inclusion of fish spawning aggregations and consideration of the natural spatial boundaries of the populations themselves. Seasonal migrations of Mutton Snapper Lutjanus analis between protected nearshore areas and spawning grounds on Riley’s Hump in Dry Tortugas, Florida, were assessed from 2008 to 2012 by acoustic telemetry. Individual fish showed synchronized reproductive migrations (up to 5 trips fish−1 yr−1) from resident habitats to spawning grounds swimming at an estimated 63 ± 18 cm s−1 (mean ± SD) over minimum linear distances up to 35.2 km. Migrations occurred from April to August, corresponding with the lunar cycle and an increase in water temperature from 25 to 30 °C. Fish arrived on spawning grounds on the full moon and stayed for 7 ± 2 d (mean ± SD). Observations of multiple spawning events made one to five days after the full moon in the late afternoon confirm these movements as spawning migrations. Functional migration areas (109.59 ± 61.01 km2; mean ± SD), which included estimates of staging/courtship/spawning area (4.51 ± 1.84 km2 [mean ± SD]) and home site area (2.50 ± 1.31 km2 [mean ± SD]), were combined to estimate the minimum catchment area of the population studied (291.3 km2). Although this study focuses on movements and habitat use of a single fish species in the Tortugas, the results are relevant to the design of marine reserve networks intended to protect and manage fishes that undergo transient spawning migrations in other locations as well.

Do the shallow‐water habitats of a hypersaline tropical estuary act as nursery grounds for fishes?

AbstractFish assemblages were studied in a hypersaline tropical estuary in Northeastern Brazil. A total of 104 species were collected by beach seine during the dry and rainy seasons of 2012. Two families, Atherinopsidae and Gerreidae, were numerically dominant in all zones of the estuary; juveniles of Atherinella brasiliensis, Eucinostomus argenteus, Lile piquitinga, Ulaema lefroyi, Lutjanus analis and Sphoeroides greeleyi contributed 77% of the total catch. The factors that best explained the fish abundance pattern were salinity and depth, which were related to spatial segregation. Species richness was lowest in the upper zone, an area with high salinity and shallow depth. The distinct roles of structurally different habitats (submerged macrophyte beds and mangrove prop‐roots) and the influence of physicochemical conditions in the middle zone of the estuary may influence taxonomic diversity. The middle zone of the estuary is the one most attractive to juveniles of reef species (Lutjanidae and Serranidae). The fish assemblages are clearly dominated by marine estuarine dependent species, highlighting the importance of the ecosystem as a nursery ground for marine species of the Brazilian coast.

Indicators of overfishing of snapper (Lutjanidae) populations on the southwest shelf of Cuba

Spawning aggregations are critical for the resilience of some coral reef fish populations and for the sustainability of many coastal fisheries. However, overexploitation of these aggregations is leading to a rapid decline of fish stocks. The fish aggregation site (FAS) associated with the San Felipe Keys National Park (in southwestern Cuba) is of great importance for the conservation of northern Caribbean snapper. An assessment of the pressure which fishing is placing on these populations, however, has not to date been conducted. To characterize the fishing use of San Felipe Keys FAS, data pertaining to five snapper species were evaluated in 2014. Samples consisted of 3879 individuals collected from 80 catch samples from commercial and sport fishing modalities. Catch assessment was performed using indicators based on length-frequency data (minimum legal size, length at first maturity, optimal length and average size of catch) and on fisheries effort data (seasonal and spatial yield by different modalities). To identify whether individuals were caught before or after spawning, the stage of gonads was analyzed. Individuals with sizes below the maturity length and with mature gonads before spawning prevailed in the five species, with Lutjanus analis and L. cyanopterus being the most affected. The government commercial fishing fleet had the highest volume of catches and the largest impact. The indicators suggest that the current use of this FAS may impede the effective preservation of reproductive capacity of the population. Therefore, management and conservation initiatives of this FAS are urgently needed to maintain the sustainability and resilience of the coralline social-ecological system.

Estimating Total Mortality Rates from Mean Lengths and Catch Rates in Nonequilibrium Situations

AbstractA series of estimates of the total mortality rate (Z) can be obtained by using the Beverton–Holt nonequilibrium‐based approach of Gedamke and Hoenig (2006) on observations of population mean length over time (ML model). In contrast, only relative mortality rates (not absolute values) can be obtained from a time series of catch rates. We derived the transitional behavior of the catch rate following a change in total mortality in the population. From this derivation, we developed a new method to estimate Z that utilizes both mean lengths and catch rates (MLCR model). Both the ML model and the MLCR model assume constant recruitment in the population. We used a simulation study to test performance when recruitment is variable. Simulations over various scenarios of Z and recruitment variability showed that there may be correlated residuals in the mean lengths and catch rates arising from fluctuations in recruitment. However, the root mean square errors of the Z estimates and the change point (i.e., the year when mortality changed) were smaller in the MLCR model than in the ML model, indicating that the MLCR model can better account for variable recruitment. Both methods were then applied to Mutton Snapper Lutjanus analis in Puerto Rico to illustrate their potential application to assess data‐limited stocks. The ML model estimated an increase in Z, but the MLCR model also estimated a subsequent reduction in Z when the catch rate data were considered.Received September 6, 2016; accepted March 14, 2017 Published online June 9, 2017

Trace elements in muscle of three fish species from Todos os Santos Bay, Bahia State, Brazil.

In this study, an analysis was performed on the concentrations of the trace elements Al, As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn in muscle of two carnivorous and one planktivorous fish species collected at Todos os Santos Bay (BTS). The accumulation order of the trace elements in Lutjanus analis was Al >Zn >Fe >Cr >Ba >Ni. In Cetengraulis edentulus, the order was Al >Fe >Zn >Cr >Ni >Mn >As. In the species Diapterus rhombeus, the order was Al >Fe >Zn >Cr >Ni >Mn >Cd. To determine the risk related to the consumption of fish, toxicity guidelines were used as standard references. It was observed that the species C. edentulus contained concentrations of As exceeding WHO limits, but these concentrations were acceptable according to the Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (ANVISA) guidelines. Cd levels were found only in D. rhombeus and in low concentrations according to the determinations of WHO and ANVISA. Pb levels were not detected in any of the three fish species. The analyzed elements did not differ statistically according to the species and feeding habits. The results point to possible risks of human contamination by As related to the consumption of the fish species C. edentulus from the BTS.

Environmental drivers of diurnal visits by transient predatory fishes to Caribbean patch reefs.

Video cameras recorded the diurnal visitation rates of transient (large home range) piscivorous fishes to coral patch reefs in The Bahamas and identified 11 species. Visits by bar jack Caranx ruber, mutton snapper Lutjanus analis, yellowtail snapper Ocyurus chrysurus, barracuda Sphyraena barracuda and cero Scomberomorus regalis were sufficiently frequent to correlate with a range of biophysical factors. Patch-reef visitation rates and fish abundances varied with distance from shore and all species except S. regalis were seen more frequently inshore. This pattern is likely to be caused by factors including close proximity to additional foraging areas in mangroves and on fore-reefs and higher abundances close to inshore nursery habitats. Visitation rates and abundances of C. ruber, L. analis, O. chrysurus and S. regalis also varied seasonally (spring v. winter), possibly as fishes responded to temperature changes or undertook spawning migrations. The abundance of each transient predator species on the patch reefs generally exhibited limited diurnal variability, but L. analis was seen more frequently towards dusk. This study demonstrates that the distribution of transient predators is correlated spatially and temporally with a range of factors, even within a single lagoon, and these drivers are species specific. Transient predators are considered an important source of mortality shaping reef-fish assemblages and their abundance, in combination with the biomass of resident predators, was negatively correlated with the density of prey fishes. Furthermore, transient predators are often targeted by fishers and understanding how they utilize seascapes is critical for protecting them within reserves.

Testing fisher-developed alternatives to fishery management tools for community support and regulatory effectiveness

This research develops a methodology to evaluate public support for fishing regulations, comparing existing regulations designed without much public input, to possible alternative regulations based fishers' ecological knowledge (FEK) and preferences. First, a survey and open-ended interview was completed with 42 fishers in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands (33% of the total number of currently registered commercial fishers on island) regarding general matters of fishery health and productivity, with heightened focus on the management of a mutton snapper (Lutjanus analis) spawning aggregation. The interview results suggest that fishers view management tools in terms of spatial and temporal parameters, and how much those regulations influence gear selection. Fishers respond primarily to socioeconomic pressures, but recognize and support ecological goals of regulations, particularly those that provide protections to important stocks throughout their spawning season. A Discrete Choice Model (DCM) was developed based on the results of the fisher surveys and was administered to 182 individuals, including 54 residents of St. Croix and all 42 fishers interviewed. Eight DCM options were presented to respondents who selected their regulatory preference in a pair-wise fashion. In seven of eight pairs, public respondents selected fisher-preferred, FEK-based regulatory frameworks. These results suggest FEK can be used to develop fishery regulations that will meet management goals, and be broadly supported by both members of the fishing community and the general public. In this manner, ecosystem-based management frameworks can be improved by incorporating fishers and their FEK, particularly for small-scale fisheries.

CRECIMIENTO DE JUVENILES DE PARGO PALMERO LUTJANUS ANALIS (CUVIER) EN JAULAS FLOTANTES EN ISLAS DEL ROSARIO, CARIBE COLOMBIANO

An experimental culture trial of juveniles of mutton snapper Lutjanus analis was conducted in order to evaluate the growth potential of the species and its adaptability to culture conditions. The juveniles (N = 127) with an initial weight ranging between 125 and 178 g were held at a stocking density of 15.9 fish/m3 in a floating cage and fed on a commercial artificial diet of 45% protein for a period of 1 to 8 days. Results showed an individual daily weight increase of 3.16 g/ day and a specific growth rate of t .06 %/ day. Although, the food conversion ratio obtained with the artificial diet was high and inadequate (TCA = 3.53). During the culture period all fish showed great tolerance to handling stress and to water quality conditions in the cage (O2 = 6.2-7.1 mg/L; Temp = 27.9-30.5 oC; Sal = 31-37). Overall survival was 97.6%. It is concluded that the mutton snapper has very important advantages for its culture like fast growth and tolerance to captivity conditions.

MONITOREO DE LOS NIVELES DE TESTOSTERONA Y ESTRADIOL EN EL PLASMA SANGUÍNEO DE HEMBRAS DE PARGO PALMERO LUTJANUS ANALIS MANTENIDAS BAJO DOS TERMOPERIODOS DE ACONDICIONAMIENTO DIFERENTES

Two groups of adult Mutton snapper fish Lutjanus analis captured in the wild, each one of three females and four males, were kept during eight months under controlled temperature and photoperiod conditions in the lab in order to stimulate their sexual maturation which was in a state of latency because of the effects of confinement. The first group was maintained under an artificial cycle with temperature manipulation and the second under a control cycle, in which this parameter was left at natural conditions. Every two months blood samples from all females were taken for the analysis of plasma testosterone (T) and oestradiol (E2) levels, taking ovarian biopsies simultaneously to register the mean diameter of the oocytes. After six months, a significative increase in the mean diameter of the oocytes of the three females of the artificial cycle was observed, with coincidence and statistic relationship with the increase in the T and E2 (r = 0.62 y 0.82 respectively). No oocyte growth was observed in the females under the control cycle. In both, artificial and control cycles, T and E2 levels showed a close relationship with photoperiod (r = 0.84 y r = 0.61) while temperature showed a lower or non significant relationship (r = 0.40 y r = 0.20). Statistical differences (P<0.1) were found between the condition factors of the two groups, while the sexual steroids didn’t show any differences between them. The present work constitutes the first report on the analysis of sexual steroid levels during the gonadal maturation process in fish of the Family Lutjanidae kept under an artificial conditioning cycle.

INDUCCIÓN DE LA MADUREZ GONADAL DEL PARGO PALMERO LUTJANUS ANALIS (PISCES: LUTJANIDAE) MEDIANTE LA APLICACIÓN DE UN FOTOTERMOPERIODO ARTIFICIAL DE ACONDICIONAMIENTO

An experimental group (N=7) of three females and four males of mutton snapper Lutjanus analis captured in the wild, whose gonadal development entered in a state of latency because of its confinement in the lab, was maintained under an artificial photothermal cycle of 10 months between October 2001 and July 2002 in order to unblock and estimulate again their sexual maturation. Another group of equal number of fish was used as a control, being maintained during the same time without manipulation of temperature and photoperiod parameters. After eight months the three females of the experimental group showed positive gonadal development signs, their oocyte mean diameters (Ø) reaching 122 ± 76; 86 ± 40; and 122 ± 87 μm respectively. During the tenth month one female reached the state III of gonadal development (Ø = 327 ± 67 μm) and was induced to final maturation and spawning by a single injection of 1,000 IU/kg of HCG. The spawning occurred 64 h after the injection with approximately 25,000 eggs (Ø = 713 ± 56 μm) which reached the early gastrula stage 4:35 h after fertilization. The artificial photothermal cycle applied showed to be effective to unblock and stimulate gonadal development of the captive fish, preliminary result that must be confirmed by further research and which could constitute an important step in the development of a technology for the artificial reproduction of the mutton snapper.

Relaciones trólicas de los juveniles de cinco especies de pargo (Pisces: Lutjanidae) en Cuba

The trophic relationships among juveniles of lane snapper. Lutjanus synagris, gray snapper. Lutjanus griseus, mutton snapper. Lutjanus analis. schoolmaster. Lutjanus apodus and yellowtail snapper. Ocyurus chrysurus in the inlet of Punta Arenas. SW shelf of Cuba, were analized. Analyses were made of 1393 stomachs of the yellowtail snapper, 367 of the lane snapper, 110 of the muttom snapper, 80 of the gray snapper and 24 of the schoolmaster in order to obtain their feedings spectrum. The main food was benthic crustaceans (shrimps and crabs) and postlarval fishes and juveniles. The juveniles of O. chrysurus L. synagris y griseus)were similar in their diets. They feed mainly on postlarval fishes and juveniles as well as small shrimps. Some changes of feeding spectra were observed during growth in the five species. On reaching the first year of life, the juveniles attain the feeding habits of lhe adults.

Indirect signals of spawning aggregations of three commercial reef fish species on the continental shelf of Bahia, east coast of Brazil

AbstractLutjanus analis (Mutton snapper), Lutjanus jocu(Dog snapper) and Mycteroperca bonaci (Black grouper) are reef fishes of high commercial value, and are among the principal exploited reef resources on the eastern and northeastern coast of Brazil. These species share the habit of forming transient spawning aggregations, predictable in time and space, which leaves them particularly vulnerable. The present study aimed to obtain indirect indicators of periods and places of spawning aggregations for these species, based on the exploratory analysis of available data on commercial catches and fishing efforts in Southern Bahia. Line fishery landings data were monitored in 12 locations in the region, and catch records of Mutton snapper (1320 landings), Dog snapper (654) and Black grouper (1162) were analyzed. A strategy was developed for exploratory analysis of monthly CPUE variation and individual distribution of CPUE per trip. The results showed the occurrence of aggregations in 26 specific sites, with values of relative abundance far above the annual mean, during spring/summer and autumn/winter. The occurrence of these anomalous catches was validated with the fishermen responsible for respective fishing trips. Additional studies are needed to confirm spawning activity at these sites. Analysis of inter-annual variation suggests a decreasing trend in relative abundance of Black grouper and Mutton snapper, possibly associated with unregulated fishing of spawning aggregations.

Demographic modeling of citizen science data informs habitat preferences and population dynamics of recovering fishes

Managing natural populations and communities requires detailed information regarding demographic processes at large spatial and temporal scales. This combination is challenging for both traditional scientific surveys, which often operate at localized scales, and recent citizen science designs, which often provide data with few auxiliary information (i.e., no information about individual age or condition). We therefore combine citizen science data at large scales with the demographic resolution afforded by recently developed, site‐structured demographic models. We apply this approach to categorical data generated from citizen science representing species density of two managed reef fishes in the Gulf of Mexico, and use a modified Dail‐Madsen model to estimate demographic trends, habitat associations, and interannual variability in recruitment. This approach identifies strong preferences for artificial structure for the recovering Goliath grouper, while revealing little evidence of either habitat associations or trends in abundance for mutton snapper. Results are also contrasted with a typical generalized linear mixed‐model (GLMM) approach, using real‐world and simulated data, to demonstrate the importance of accounting for the statistical complexities implied by spatially structured citizen science data. We conclude by discussing the increasing potential for synthesizing demographic models and citizen science data, and the management benefits that can be accrued.

Parasites of the mutton snapper Lutjanus analis (Perciformes: Lutjanidae) in Alagoas, Brazil.

A parasitological survey was carried out on a sample of sixty mutton snappers (Lutjanus analis) that were caught on the coast of Alagoas, northeastern Brazil. The parasite diversity and infection levels were low. The ectoparasite Rocinela signata Schioedte & Meinert, 1879 (Isopoda: Aegidae), and larvae of two endoparasites, Trypanorhyncha gen. sp. and Hysterothylacium sp. (Nematoda: Anisakidae), were detected. The significance of these parasites is discussed in the context of their transmission pathways and potential impact.

Ethnoichthyology of fishermen community from the Praia da Penha, in João Pessoa City, Paraíba, Brazil

The interaction of human populations with natural resources mainly related to the perception of the knowledge and the various uses of these resources are the basis for ethnoecological knowledge. The addresses of this research are based on folk knowledge of artisanal fishers of the community of Praia da Penha, in João Pessoa City, Paraíba, Brazil, in order to analyze, through an exploratory case study, the knowledge of ichthyological community is investigated by performing a detailed description quali-quantitatively. Artisanal male fishers, older than 18 years old were interviewed. The results showed that 95% of the fishermen produce artisanal fishing activities in the community, the average of their age are around 48.2 years old and they represent the economic mainstay in their families and strong family ties reinforce the core traditions of local fishing. The main methods of capturing cited by respondents were handline fishing and the sunk fixed gillnets. Of 192 folk species mentioned, 19 are considered relevant to the community, especially yellowtail snapper (Lutjanus analis), largetooth sawfish (Scomberomorus brasilliensis), king mackerel (Scomberomorus cavalla), common dolphin (Coryphaena hippurus), redfish (Lutjanus purpureus), tuna (Thunnus spp.), smalltooth weakfish (Cynoscion leiarchus), commom halfbeak (Hyporhamphus unifasciatus), Atlantic thread herring (Opisthonema oglinum), triggerfish (Balistes capriscus) and garfish (Strongylura marina). This research reveals that the community of artisanal fishers from Praia da Penha has an extensive ichthyological knowledge, not yet explored in its full possibilities.

Modeling Coral Reef Fish Home Range Movements in Dry Tortugas, Florida

Underestimation of reef fish space use may result in marine reserves that are too small to effectively buffer a portion of the stock from fishing mortality. Commonly used statistical home range models, such as minimum convex polygon (MCP) or 95% kernel density (95% KD) methods, require the exclusion of individuals who move beyond the bounds of the tracking study. Spatially explicit individual-based models of fish home range movements parameterized from multiple years of acoustic tracking data were developed for three exploited coral reef fishes (red grouper Epinephelus morio, black grouper Mycteroperca bonaci, and mutton snapper Lutjanus analis) in Dry Tortugas, Florida. Movements were characterized as a combination of probability of movement, distance moved, and turning angle. Simulations suggested that the limited temporal and geographic scope of most movement studies may underestimate home range size, especially for fish with home range centers near the edges of the array. Simulations provided useful upper bounds for home range size (red grouper: 2.28 ± 0.81 km2 MCP, 3.60 ± 0.89 km2 KD; black grouper: 2.06 ± 0.84 km2 MCP, 3.93 ± 1.22 km2 KD; mutton snapper: 7.72 ± 2.23 km2 MCP, 6.16 ± 1.11 km2 KD). Simulations also suggested that MCP home ranges are more robust to artifacts of passive array acoustic detection patterns than 95% KD methods.
