Abstract
Fish of the genus Thunnus are unusual because they are regional endotherms. In this study, archival tag data were used to demonstrate behavioural and physiological thermoregulation in juvenile yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares (35−52 cm fork length). Tags inserted into the peritoneal cavity were recovered from 23 yellowfin tuna caught mainly around Ishigaki Island, Japan, in 2009−2012. Peritoneal and environmental temperatures and depth data...
