Sardine
"Sardine" and "pilchard" are common names for various species of small, oily forage fish in the herring family Clupeidae. The term "sardine" was first used in English during the early 15th century, a folk etymology says it comes from the Italian island of Sardinia, around which sardines were once supposedly abundant. The terms "sardine" and "pilchard" are not precise, and what is meant depends on the region. The United Kingdom's Sea Fish Industry Authority, for example, classifies sardines as young pilchards. One criterion suggests fish shorter in length than are sardines, and larger fish are pilchards. The FAO/ WHO Codex standard for canned sardines cites 21 species that may be classed as sardines. FishBase, a comprehensive database of information about fish, calls at least six species "pilchard", over a dozen just "sardine", and many more with the two basic names qualified by various adjectives. Etymology 'Sardine' first appeared in English in the 15th century, a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sardinops
''Sardinops'' is a monotypic genus of sardines of the family Clupeidae. The only member of the genus is ''Sardinops sagax''. It is found in the Indo-Pacific and East Pacific oceans. Its length is up to . It has numerous common or vernacular names, some of which more appropriately refer to subspecies, including blue pilchard, Australian pilchard (''S. s. neopilchardus''), blue-bait, Californian pilchard (''S. s. caeruleus''), Peruvian Pacific sardine (''S. s. sagax''), South American pilchard, Chilean sardine (''S. s. sagax''), Japanese pilchard (''S. s. melanostictus''), Pacific sardine, and Southern African pilchard (''S. s. ocellatus''). South Australian sardine fishery The South Australian sardine fishery targets ''Sardinops sagax'' and is the highest yielding single species fishery in Australia by volume. The fishery employs the technique of purse seining. Schools of sardines are encircled by a net up to 1 kilometre in length which is then drawn closed at the bottom. The ...

Lake Tanganyika Sardine
The Lake Tanganyika sardine (''Limnothrissa miodon'') is a species of freshwater fish in the family Clupeidae which was endemic to Lake Tanganyika but which has now been introduced to other lakes in Africa as a food source. It is monotypic within the genus ''Limnothrissa''. It and the Lake Tanganyika sprat are known collectively as kapenta. Distribution As its name suggests the Lake Tanganyika sardine was endemic to Lake Tanganyika extending into the lower reaches of the Malagarasi River. It has been introduced to Lake Kivu in Rwanda and the man-made Lake Kariba in the Zambezi valley between Zambia and Zimbabwe and more recently into the Itezhi-Tezhi Dam in Zambia.The Life History of Limnothrissa miodon in Lake Kariba.

Black Sea Sprat
The Black Sea sprat, ''Clupeonella cultriventris'', is a small fish of the herring family, Clupeidae. It is found in the Black Sea and Sea of Azov and rivers of its basins: Danube, Dnister, Dnipro (Ukraine), Southern Bug, Don, Kuban. It has white-grey flesh and silver-grey scales. A typical size is 10 cm (maximum 15 cm) The life span is of up to 5 years. The peak of its spawning is in April and it can be found in enormous shoals in sea-shores, filled all-round coastal shallows, moving quickly back in the sea at a depth of 6–30 metres. Used for food; it has around 12% fat in flesh. It is one of the most abundant fishes in the Sea of Azov. It is important prey for other fishes, particularly the pikeperch. The Caspian tyulka ''Clupeonella caspia'' has been long considered a subspecies of ''C. cultriventris'', ''C. cultriventris caspia'', and a common name "Black and Caspian Sea sprat" was then applied to the whole.

European Sprat
The European sprat (''Sprattus sprattus''), also known as bristling, brisling, garvie, garvock, Russian sardine, russlet, skipper or whitebait, is a species of small marine fish in the herring family Clupeidae. Found in European waters, it has silver grey scales and white-grey flesh. Specific seas in which the species occurs include the Irish Sea, Black Sea, Baltic Sea and Sea of the Hebrides. The fish is the subject of fisheries, particularly in Scandinavia, and is made into fish meal, as well as being used for human consumption. When used for food it can be canned, salted, breaded, fried, boiled, grilled, baked, deep fried, marinated, broiled, and smoked. Taxonomy This fish was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758 in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae. He called it ''Clupea sprattus'', but it was later transferred to the genus '' Sprattus''. Three subspecies are recognised; ''S. sprattus balticus'' from the Baltic Sea; ''S. sprattus phalericus'' from the Mediterranean, Ad ...

Sardine Run
The KwaZulu-Natal sardine run of southern Africa occurs from May through July when billions of sardines – or more specifically the Southern African pilchard ''Sardinops sagax'' – spawn in the cool waters of the Agulhas Bank and move northward along the east coast of South Africa. Their sheer numbers create a feeding frenzy along the coastline. The run, containing millions of individual sardines, occurs when a current of cold water heads north from the Agulhas Bank up to Mozambique where it then leaves the coastline and goes further east into the Indian Ocean. In terms of biomass, researchers estimate the sardine run could rival East Africa's great wildebeest migration. However, little is known of the phenomenon. It is believed that the water temperature has to drop below 21 °C in order for the migration to take place. In 2003, the sardines failed to 'run' for the third time in 23 years. While 2005 saw a good run, 2006 marked another non-run.40 km) than that of th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sardines (food)
Sardines ("pilchards") are a nutrient-rich, small, oily fish widely consumed by humans and as forage fish by larger fish species, seabirds and marine mammals. Sardines are a source of omega-3 fatty acids. Sardines are often served in cans, but can also be eaten grilled, pickled, or smoked when fresh. Sardines are related to herrings, both in the family Clupeidae. The term ''sardine'' was first used in English during the early 15th century, and may come from the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, around which sardines were once abundant. The terms ''sardine'' and ''pilchard'' are not precise, and what is meant depends on the region. The United Kingdom's Sea Fish Industry Authority, for example, classifies sardines as young pilchards. One criterion suggests fish shorter in length than are sardines, and larger ones pilchards. The FAO/WHO Codex standard for canned sardines cites 12 species in the Order of Clupeiformes that may be classed as sardines, including Atlantic herring (''Clu ...

Sardines (game)
Hide-and-seek (sometimes known as hide-and-go-seek) is a popular children's game in which at least two players (usually at least three) conceal themselves in a set environment, to be found by one or more seekers. The game is played by one chosen player (designated as being "it") counting to a predetermined number with eyes closed while the other players hide. After reaching this number, the player who is "it" calls "Ready or not, here I come!" or "Coming, ready or not!" and then attempts to locate all concealed players. The game can end in one of several ways. The most common way of ending is the player chosen as "it" locates all players; the player found first is the loser and is chosen to be "it" in the next game. The player found last is the winner. Another common variation has the seeker counting at "home base"; the hiders can either remain hidden or they can come out of hiding to race to home base; once they touch it, they are "safe" and cannot be tagged. The game is an ex ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sardine is a former rural locality in the Barcaldine Region, Queensland, Australia. In the , Sardine had a population of 5 people. On 22 November 2019 the Queensland Government decided to amalgamate the localities in the Barcaldine Region, resulting in five expanded localities based on the larger towns: Alpha, Aramac, Barcaldine, Jericho and Muttaburra. The eastern part of Sardine was incorporated into Aramac, while the western part was incorporated into Muttaburra. Geography The Muttaburra Aramac Road forms part of the northern boundary of the locality and then passes through the locality to the east, then forming part of the north-east boundary. The Crossmore Road passes through the locality from the north-west (Muttaburra) to the south-west (Longreach). The Thomson River forms the western boundary of the locality.

Sardines (political Movement)
The Sardines movement ( it, movimento delle sardine), also known as Sardines against Salvini (), was a grassroots political movement, which began in Italy in November 2019. The movement organized an ongoing series of peaceful demonstrations to protest against the right-wing surge in the country and, more specifically, against the political rhetoric of right-wing leader Matteo Salvini. The name "Sardines" came from the idea of organizing their rallies with high numbers of participants, packed together like sardines in a shoal. While the movement ''de facto'' ended after the centre-left victory in the January 2020 election in Emilia-Romagna, it formally ended in May.
