Pacific Plate Biogeography, with Special Reference to Shorefishes
Pacific Plate Biogeography, with Special Reference to Shorefishes VICTOR G. SPRINGER m SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 367 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoo/ogy Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review. -

ASPECTS OF THE BIOWGY OF TWO SCYLIORHINID SHARKS, APRISTURUS BRUNNEUS AND PARMATURUS XANIURUS, FROM THE UPPER CONTINENTAL SWPE OFF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA JEFFREY N. CROSSI ABSTRACf The distribution. abundance, reproductive cycle. and food habits of two scyliorhinid sharks are discussed. Catsharks occurred on 87% of 71 longline sets and in 6% of 48 trawls. Longline catches were stratified by habitat into banks (hard substrate) and mud (soft substrate). ApriBtu'l"lUl brllnnell.8 occurred more frequently on mud sets than on bank sets. but its abundance was similar in both habitats. Pa'MIlaturus :l'a·t/.iu~ oC<.'l1rred equally frequently on mud and bank sets, but it was more abundant on bank sets. Catches of both species consisted of adults and adolescents; juveniles were rare or absent. Historical collections suggest that juveniles are mesopelagic. Male P. zaniurull matured ata smaller size than male A. brrt1meus. Females of both species matured at about the same size and fecundity increased with female size. The proportion of body weight devoted to gonads and maximum oocyte size were greater among P. 2:a1liurus, but fecundity and the proportion of females carrying egg cases were greater among A. brun'IU.l1ts. Seasonal changes in gonadal develop ment were not well defined for either species. Members of both populations may have been reproduc tively active throughout the year. The diets of both species comprised. in order of importance, crustaceans, teleosts, and squids. Most prey consumed were pelagic; however, it is not known where in the water column the catsharks obtained their prey. The Scyliorhinidae is the largest family of living ParmatWr1"S Xa11Jiu1'US Gilbert, the filetail cat sharks with about 94 valid species (Nelson 1984). -

Bufology with Priya Nanjappa Ologies Podcast May 7, 2019 Oh hey, it’s your sister’s new boyfriend, who you’re quietly judging because of his cracked phone screen and bad shoes, Alie Ward, back with another episode of Ologies. If this is your very first episode, just a few things. We swear a whole bunch in this; we swear in a lot of ‘em, most of ‘em. If you wish we didn’t, don’t freak out, there are bleeped episodes of the podcast available at AlieWard.com. I’ll put a link in the show notes. Moving the danged heck on. Okay so frickin’ toads. What are they? And are they the best or are they the worst? Are toads the unsung underdogs? Are they warty friends yet to be made? Or are they bastards? Do they belong in a heap of canceled beasts who don’t deserve our admiration? You’ll find out. But first, business, in which I thank everyone on Patreon.com/Ologies for their questions, for their patronhood, for making the show feasible and possible and just a joy to make. Also, thank you to everyone sporting Ologies merch from OlogiesMerch.com and everyone who just gets it and knows that making sure that you’re subscribed and rating the show helps us get seen by pre-ologites, people who don’t know about the show yet. Also, thanks to the kind folks who are leaving reviews, because you know that I read them when I’m in a hotel, eating gas station food, and they make my day. -
Phylogenetic Relationships Within the Speciose Family Characidae
Oliveira et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2011, 11:275 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/11/275 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Phylogenetic relationships within the speciose family Characidae (Teleostei: Ostariophysi: Characiformes) based on multilocus analysis and extensive ingroup sampling Claudio Oliveira1*, Gleisy S Avelino1, Kelly T Abe1, Tatiane C Mariguela1, Ricardo C Benine1, Guillermo Ortí2, Richard P Vari3 and Ricardo M Corrêa e Castro4 Abstract Background: With nearly 1,100 species, the fish family Characidae represents more than half of the species of Characiformes, and is a key component of Neotropical freshwater ecosystems. The composition, phylogeny, and classification of Characidae is currently uncertain, despite significant efforts based on analysis of morphological and molecular data. No consensus about the monophyly of this group or its position within the order Characiformes has been reached, challenged by the fact that many key studies to date have non-overlapping taxonomic representation and focus only on subsets of this diversity. Results: In the present study we propose a new definition of the family Characidae and a hypothesis of relationships for the Characiformes based on phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences of two mitochondrial and three nuclear genes (4,680 base pairs). The sequences were obtained from 211 samples representing 166 genera distributed among all 18 recognized families in the order Characiformes, all 14 recognized subfamilies in the Characidae, plus 56 of the genera so far considered incertae sedis in the Characidae. The phylogeny obtained is robust, with most lineages significantly supported by posterior probabilities in Bayesian analysis, and high bootstrap values from maximum likelihood and parsimony analyses. -

RINGUELET SUMMARY: The zoogeography and ecology of fresh water fishes from Argentina and comments on ichthyogeography of South America. This study comprises a critical review of relevant literature on the fish fauna, genocentres, means of dispersal, barriers, ecological groups, coactions, and ecological causality of distribution, including an analysis of allotopic species in the lame lake or pond, the application of indexes of diversity of severa¡ biotopes and comments on historical factors. Its wide scope allows to clarify several aspects of South American Ichthyogeography. The location of Argentina ichthyological fauna according to the above mentioned distributional scheme as well as its relation with the most important hydrography systems are also provided, followed by additional information on its distribution in the Argentine Republic, including an analysis through the application of Simpson's similitude test in several localities.
