Abstract

Nike fish, a native amphidromous species inhabiting Gorontalo waters, faces a significant threat due to the massive exploitation of its larvae during their migration in marine environments. This predatory pattern poses a serious risk to the sustainability of Nike fish populations in their natural habitat. Furthermore, the dearth of comprehensive bioecological investigations, including species identification, has left important aspects of Nike fish biology largely unexplored. To address these knowledge gaps, we conducted a systematic review of Nike fish research following the established PRISMA guidelines. Utilizing Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, and Scopus databases, we meticulously combed through the available literature from April to May 2022. Our rigorous screening process initially yielded a total of 400 entries, ultimately identifying 28 distinct papers suitable for in-depth analysis. Our findings reveal a diverse array of research on Nike fish, laying the foundation for further explorations into this species. Notably, there is a discernible upward trend in Nike fish research, with an increasing number of publications in recent years, particularly in 2017 (2 papers), 2018 (4 papers), 2019 (5 papers), and 2020 (7 papers). Predominantly, these studies delve into the morphology of Nike fish, while select publications delve into molecular analysis, species composition, and distribution patterns. Despite these commendable efforts, much remains to be uncovered regarding Nike fish characteristics and migration patterns. A potential bottleneck to future progress lies in limited collaboration with international researchers and language barriers. Nevertheless, recent years have witnessed the promising initiation of a burgeoning research trend focused on Nike fish. © 2024, BIOFLUX SRL. All rights reserved.
