入侵狮子鱼(Pterois volitans/英里)对整个西大西洋和加勒比海的海洋生态系统构成严重威胁。开发狮子鱼渔业已被提议作为控制种群数量的一项战略；然而，由于其高营养地位和汞的生物积累潜力，人们对人类消费这一物种表示担忧。我们分析了佛罗里达州东海岸两个地点的狮子鱼组织中的总汞(THG)。狮子鱼的THG随着体型的增加而增加，并因位置和性别而不同。THG在肌肉组织中含量最高，各组织间呈极显著正相关。狮子鱼中的THG低于其他常用的海鱼，属于佛罗里达州限制最低的建议水平。食用狮子鱼的风险很低，对汞生物积累的担忧不应对狮子鱼的收获构成重大障碍。
Invasive lionfish (Pterois volitans/miles) pose a serious threat to marine ecosystems throughout the western Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea. The development of a fishery for lionfish has been proposed as a strategy for controlling populations; however, there is concern about consumption of this species by humans due to its high trophic position and potential for bioaccumulation of mercury. We analyzed total mercury (THg) in tissues of lionfish from two locations on the east coast of Florida. THg in lionfish increased with size and differed by location and sex. THg was highest in muscle tissue and was strongly positively correlated among tissues. THg in lionfish was lower than other commonly consumed marine fishes, and falls into Florida’s least restrictive advisory level. Consumption of lionfish poses a low risk and concerns over mercury bioaccumulation should not present a significant barrier to lionfish harvest.
