A Review of the Systematic Biology of Fossil and Living Bony-Tongue Fishes, Osteoglossomorpha (Actinopterygii: Teleostei)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 16(3): e180031, 2018 Journal homepage: www.scielo.br/ni DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20180031 Published online: 11 October 2018 (ISSN 1982-0224) Copyright © 2018 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Printed: 30 September 2018 (ISSN 1679-6225) Review article A review of the systematic biology of fossil and living bony-tongue fishes, Osteoglossomorpha (Actinopterygii: Teleostei) Eric J. Hilton1 and Sébastien Lavoué2,3 The bony-tongue fishes, Osteoglossomorpha, have been the focus of a great deal of morphological, systematic, and evolutio- nary study, due in part to their basal position among extant teleostean fishes. This group includes the mooneyes (Hiodontidae), knifefishes (Notopteridae), the abu (Gymnarchidae), elephantfishes (Mormyridae), arawanas and pirarucu (Osteoglossidae), and the African butterfly fish (Pantodontidae). This morphologically heterogeneous group also has a long and diverse fossil record, including taxa from all continents and both freshwater and marine deposits. The phylogenetic relationships among most extant osteoglossomorph families are widely agreed upon. However, there is still much to discover about the systematic biology of these fishes, particularly with regard to the phylogenetic affinities of several fossil taxa, within Mormyridae, and the position of Pantodon. In this paper we review the state of knowledge for osteoglossomorph fishes. We first provide an overview of the diversity of Osteoglossomorpha, and then discuss studies of the phylogeny of Osteoglossomorpha from both morphological and molecular perspectives, as well as biogeographic analyses of the group. Finally, we offer our perspectives on future needs for research on the systematic biology of Osteoglossomorpha. Keywords: Biogeography, Osteoglossidae, Paleontology, Phylogeny, Taxonomy. Os peixes da Superordem Osteoglossomorpha têm sido foco de inúmeros estudos sobre a morfologia, sistemática e evo- lução, particularmente devido à sua posição basal dentre os peixes teleósteos. -

Here we present evidencefrom comparative ecology and morphology that tube-snouted electric fishes of the genera Sternarchorhynchus (Apteronotidae) and Campylomormyrus (Mormyridae) may be unique among fishes in their mode of foraging by grasp-suction.The grasp-suctionmode of feeding is a specialization for extracting immature stagesof aquatic insectsthat burrow into, or hide within, interstitial spacesand holes in matrices of compacted clay particles that form the channel bottom of many tropical lowland rivers. Eco- morphological implications of the remarkable evolutionary convergencefor this specializedmode of foraging by tube-snouted electric fishes provide a challenge to Liem's (1984, 1990) theory of separate aquatic and terrestrial vertebrate feeding modes.

Evo-Devo-Neuroethology of Electric Communication in Mormyrid Fishes
J. Neurogenetics, 27(3): 106–129 Copyright © 2013 Informa Healthcare USA, Inc. ISSN: 0167-7063 print/1563-5260 online DOI: 10.3109/01677063.2013.799670 Review From Sequence to Spike to Spark: Evo-devo-neuroethology of Electric Communication in Mormyrid Fishes Bruce A. Carlson 1 & Jason R. Gallant 2 1 Department of Biology, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri, USA 2 Department of Biology, Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA Abstract: Mormyrid fi shes communicate using pulses of electricity, conveying information about their identity, behavioral state, and location. They have long been used as neuroethological model systems because they are uniquely suited to identifying cellular mechanisms for behavior. They are also remarkably diverse, and they have recently emerged as a model system for studying how communication systems may infl uence the process of speciation. These two lines of inquiry have now converged, generating insights into the neural basis of evolutionary change in behavior, as well as the infl uence of sensory and motor systems on behavioral diversifi cation and speciation. Here, we review the mechanisms of electric signal generation, reception, and analysis and relate these to our current understanding of the evolution and development of electromotor and electrosensory systems. We highlight the enormous potential of mormyrids for studying evolutionary developmental mechanisms of behavioral diversifi cation, and make the case for developing genomic and transcriptomic resources. A complete mormyrid genome sequence would enable studies that extend our understanding of mormyrid behavior to the molecular level by linking morphological and physiological mechanisms to their genetic basis. Applied in a comparative framework, genomic resources would facilitate analysis of evolutionary processes underlying mormyrid diversifi cation, reveal the genetic basis of species differences in behavior, and illuminate the origins of a novel vertebrate sensory and motor system. -

Chapter Eighteen J BEHAVIOR of MORMYRIDAE
Hopkins, C.D. (1986) Behavior of Mormyridae. in: Electroreception. (T.H. Bullock and W. Heiligenberg, Eds.) John Wiley & Sons. New York. pp.527-576. Chapter Eighteen j BEHAVIOR OF MORMYRIDAE CARL D. HOPKINS Division of Biological Sciences Section of Neurobiology and Behavior Cornell University Ithaca, New York SUMMARY There are over 200 species of fishes belonging to the African family Mormyridae, making it the largest single group of electrogenic fishes. All of the mormyrids produce weak electric discharges by a highly specialized electric organ in the tail, and all possess at least three major classes of electroreceptors: ampullary, used in prey detection and predator avoidance; mormyromasts, used for active electroloca tion; knollenorgans, used for social communication. The mormyrids may be divided into three main subfamilies, based on external morphology and bone structure: there is 1 species in the Gymnarchinae; there are over 20 in the Petrocephalinae, which has a single genus, Petrocephalus; and there are over 170 species in the subfamily Mormyrinae . Recent field recordings of the electric signals have made it possible to distinguish between sibling species . The diversity of electric discharges plays a vital role in species and in sex recognition. Mormyrids occur in virtually every type of freshwater habitat in Africa, but they -: ' are primarily river specialists. Many species migrate laterally from rivers or streams into flooded areas for reproduction . Little is known about the breeding and nesting behavior of mormyrids except for Gymnarchus, which produces a large floating nest and has an elaborate system of parental care, and Pollimyrus isidori, which has been observed to build nests and show male parental care in aquarium observations. -

Evolution and Expression of Tissue Globins in Ray-Finned Fishes
GBE Evolution and Expression of Tissue Globins in Ray-Finned Fishes Michael D. Gallagher and Daniel J. Macqueen* Institute of Biological and Environmental Sciences, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted: November 7, 2016 Data deposition: All sequence alignments and datasets used in evolutionary analyses are provided as supplemental information. Abstract The globin gene family encodes oxygen-binding hemeproteins conserved across the major branches of multicellular life. The origins and evolutionary histories of complete globin repertoires have been established for many vertebrates, but there remain major knowledge gaps for ray-finned fish. Therefore, we used phylogenetic, comparative genomic and gene expression analyses to discover and characterize canonical “non-blood” globin family members (i.e., myoglobin, cytoglobin, neuroglobin, globin-X, and globin-Y) across multiple ray-finned fish lineages, revealing novel gene duplicates (paralogs) conserved from whole genome dupli- cation (WGD) and small-scale duplication events. Our key findings were that: (1) globin-X paralogs in teleosts have been retained from the teleost-specific WGD, (2) functional paralogs of cytoglobin, neuroglobin, and globin-X, but not myoglobin, have been conserved from the salmonid-specific WGD, (3) triplicate lineage-specific myoglobin paralogs are conserved in arowanas (Osteoglossiformes), which arose by tandem duplication and diverged under positive selection, (4) globin-Y is retained in multiple early branching fish lineages that diverged before teleosts, and (5) marked variation in tissue-specific expression of globin gene repertoires exists across ray-finned fish evolution, including several previously uncharacterized sites of expression. In this respect, our data provide an inter- esting link between myoglobin expression and the evolution of air breathing in teleosts. -
