Marine organisms with wide distribution are excellent models for the understanding of historical genetic connectivity patterns. Lutjanus purpureus, or Caribbean snapper, as the species is popularly known, is a marine Teleost belonging to the Family Lutjanidae. The species distribution is from Cuba to the Northeast of Brazil, being often found on rocky and sandy bottoms. It has high economic importance, however there are few studies available on the genetic architecture of the species. Of major goals of this study, the first deals with the development and characterization of the EPIC primers, for population approaches in L. purpureus, and others marine teleosts. The characterization of genomic regions with sufficient polymorphism to population analysis is fundamental for genetic studies with multiple unlinked regions. Were obtained eight primers, and the majority has high levels of genetic variation. EPIC primers have the advantage of being applicable on a wide taxonomic level, thereby these primers were tested and amplified in other taxonomic groups of organisms, so that an indication can be useful in various approaches to intraspecific groups of marine fish. The second main objective was to evaluate issues of genetic diversity, demographics and historical genetic connectivity for L. purpureus using multiple loci (mitochondrial and nuclear DNA). It was found high levels of genetic diversity, probably related to a high effective size presented by species. The Caribbean snapper apparently shows high levels of genetic homogeneity along of the study area, which is consistent with biological traits of species such as spawning in offshore and larval pelagic development. In relation to aspects of historical demography, a population growth scenario is presented, whose beginning is dated about 170,000 years, this period being congruent with a period of glacial maximum to the region of the western Atlantic.

Can Lutjanus purpureus (South red snapper) be "legally" considered a red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus)?
(2008) GOMES, Grazielle Fernanda Evangelista; SCHNEIDER, Horacio; SOUZA, Marcelo Nazareno Vallinoto de; SILVA, Simoni Santos da; ORTI, Guillermo; SAMPAIO, Maria Iracilda da Cunha
Red snappers (Lutjanus purpureus in Brazil and Lutjanus campechanus in USA and Gulf of Mexico) are both under clear effect of overfishing. Because of their high morphological similarity it has already been suggested that they could possibly be considered as a single species. To investigate the degree of similarity and the genetic structure of red snapper populations we constructed a common dataset of partial D-loop mtDNA sequences of L. purpureus from Brazil (Amapá, Pará and Maranhão) and L. campechanus from the Atlantic coast of the USA (Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi). Phylogenetic and population genetic analyses surprisingly depicted high similarity between L. campechanus and L. purpureus, compatible with the hypothesis of a single species of red snapper for the Western Atlantic Ocean. These preliminary but very curious findings open an important discussion regarding the legislation involved on the capture of this overexploited fish resources as well as regarding their taxonomy.

Chemometric identification and nutritional evaluation of three species of Lutjanidae (Perciformes) from the Amazonian Atlantic Coast based on fatty acid profiles
(Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia, 2016-12) ALMEIDA, Edilene Santos de; SILVA, Evaldo Martins da
The fatty acid (FA) profiles of fish species with a similar genetic or geographic origin are important quality parameters that attract bioecological interest because they are inﬂuenced by the nutritional habits of the species. The aim of this study was to determine the proximate compositions and FA profiles of heart, brain and muscle tissues from three fish species (Lutjanus purpureus, Lutjanus synagris and Ocyurus chrysurus) captured from the Amazonian Atlantic Coast. In addition to performing nutritional analysis of the FA profiles, principal components analysis (PCA) was performed as a chemometric tool to discriminate among the species. Lutjanus synagris had the highest protein content (18.23%), while O. chrysurus possessed the highest lipid content (4.25%). All of the nutritional quality parameters (the n-6/n-3 and Σ polyunsaturated FA/Σ saturated FA ratios and dietary indices of atherogenicity and thrombogenicity) of the FA profiles of the three species are of interest to consumers. In general, the predominant FA in the tissues of all species analyzed was palmitic acid, followed by stearic acid. Oleic acid was predominant among the monounsaturated FAs, while docosahexaenoic acid was the most prevalent polyunsaturated FA. Chemometric analysis was an effective tool for fish identification. PCA showed that the FA profiles of the brain tissues were optimal for discriminating among the species, with O. chrysurus showing the most different FA profile from the others. The muscle FA profile was the most useful for identifying L. purpureus.

Dinâmica populacional do pargo, Lutjanus purpureus Poey, 1875 (Pisces: Lutjanidae) na plataforma norte do Brasil
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2002-05-20) SOUZA, Rosália Furtado Cutrim; IVO, Carlos Tassito Correa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0470299408088177; SOUZA, Raimundo Aderson Lobão de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4922849102516924
Growth, mortality, biometry and reproduction of the red snapper, Lutjanus purpureus was researched from samples obtained from landings of commercial catches in the northern Brazilian coast with auspicious of REVIZEE program and Biology and Fishing of the red snapper in the northern Brazilian Project of the CEPNOR/IBAMA . Total and zoological length data obtained from approximately 500 individuals were collected monthly in the cities of Belém, Vigia and Bragança, from January 1999 to December 2000. Sub-samples of 150 fishes were obtained monthly from April 1998 to January 2000 to study reproduction and biometry. In the CEPNOR/IBAMA laboratory were carried out biometry, identification of sexy type and gonadal maturation stages. The total of 16. 733 specimens, presents percentile superiors at 50% of young individuals. The amplitude of total class varied from 13 to 112 cm of length and the length averages were 45,72 cm and 51,91 cm, respectively for the year of 1999 and 2000. The morphometric and weight/length relationships show positive allometry. The weight/length relation of male and female differ significantly from Student statistic method. The reproduction was researched determining the sexual proportion under chisquare statistics, the size of first maturation and spawning period, that was analyzed temporal variation of frequency of the gonadal stages and gonadal-somatic relation. The whole research period was observed a female predominance in the month analysis only in April 1998, May and June 1999 do not present significant differences between male and female. In sexual proportion, by class length the predominance of female was highly significant from 28 to 45 cm. The total length class of first maturation was estimated between 43 a 46 cm from females by graphic extrapolation method and the 43,67 cm by adjust of Galton ogive. The reproductive period was defined in two points, one more intense in the second quarter of the year, with a larger amplitude in may/1998 and another one reduced in the fourth quarter same year. Growth parameters were estimated by ELEFAN I system, Bhattacharya, Gulland & Holt and Appeldoorn methods in FiSAT program. The Appeldoorn method presents the better adjust to red snapper with value of L= 115 cm, K= 0,091 year-1, and determine von Bertalanffy equation Lt = 115 (1-e 0,091t-to). The natural mortality was estimated in 0,25 year-1 e 0,31 year-1 by Pauly and Rikhter & Efanov equations, respectively. The total mortality estimated by converted length in curve of linearized catch and Beverton & Holt method reached values of 0,59; 0,664 respectively. Mortality by fishing and exploitation rate were also calculated and obtained values F = 0,34 year1 e E = 0,57. The longevity estimated by Taylor equation was 33 years. The red snapper presents slow growth and longevity life with periodic spawn. The fishing in the northern Brazilian coast happen high percentile of young fishes. That can contribute to overfishing growth , compromising the sustentability of the species and the fishing activity in the northern Brazilian coast. It is indispensable to adopt regulation measures to red snapper fishing, at least about minimum size capture.

Population structure of Lutjanus purpureus (Lutjanidae - Perciformes) on the Brazilian coast: further existence evidence of a single species of red snapper in the western Atlantic
(2012-12) GOMES, Grazielle Fernanda Evangelista; SAMPAIO, Maria Iracilda da Cunha; SCHNEIDER, Horacio
The present study focus on the mitochondrial control region to investigate phylogeographic patterns and population structure in Lutjanus purpureus, and to evaluate the genetic similarity between L. purpureus and L. campechanus. For the initial analysis, 810 base pairs sequence from control region were obtained from 239 specimens of L. purpureus collected from four localities off the Brazilian coast. The results revealed the presence of a single panmictic population characterized by high values of genetic diversity. The 299 base pairs hypervariable portion were used for the combined analysis of L. purpureus and L. campechanus, being 275 haplotypes identified in the 414 specimens. Phylogenetic tree and haplotype network did not indicate phylogeographic substructuring between the two species, but rather an intense intermingling of individuals. Considering their marked morphological similarity, the molecular data presented here indicatethat only one species of red snapper exists in the western Atlantic.
