  • Notes on Cryptocoryne
    Notes on Cryptocoryne BY T. Petch, B.A., B.Sc. WITH FOUR PLATES The genus Cryptocoryne (Araceae) was established by Fischer for the reception of two Indian species, Cryptocoryne spiralis and Crypto- coryne ciliata, which had been described under Ambrosinia by Roxburgh. Additional species were described by Roxburgh, Schott, and other botanists, while in Beccari, Malesia, Engler described eleven new species from Borneo and gave a conspectus of twenty-four known species. In Flora British India, Hooker enumerated sixteen species, and in Flora of Ceylon, five species. The total number of species is now over thirty, confined to the Eastern Tropics. For our knowledge of the structure of the flower we are indebted almost entirely to Griffith, who recorded the results of his examination of fresh specimens of Cryptocoryne ciliata in Trans. Linn. Soc., XX, pp. 263-276. The spadix is small, and it is not easy to determine the details of its structure from dried specimens. Consequently, very little has been added to Griffith's account, and a detailed examination of the living flower is still lacking in the case of the majority of the alleged species. In Ceylon, Cryptocoryne has been considered very rare. Crypto- coryne Thwaitesii Schott, hitherto the best-known species, occurs in the wet low-country in the south-west of the Island. C. Nevillii Trimen was described from a single collection made by Nevill in the Eastern Province. C. Beckettii Thwaites was collected in 1865 in Matale East, and there are two subsequent collections assigned to this species in Herb., Peradeniya. The record of C.

  • Species Composition and Invasion Risks of Alien Ornamental Freshwater
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Species composition and invasion risks of alien ornamental freshwater fshes from pet stores in Klang Valley, Malaysia Abdulwakil Olawale Saba1,2, Ahmad Ismail1, Syaizwan Zahmir Zulkifi1, Muhammad Rasul Abdullah Halim3, Noor Azrizal Abdul Wahid4 & Mohammad Noor Azmai Amal1* The ornamental fsh trade has been considered as one of the most important routes of invasive alien fsh introduction into native freshwater ecosystems. Therefore, the species composition and invasion risks of fsh species from 60 freshwater fsh pet stores in Klang Valley, Malaysia were studied. A checklist of taxa belonging to 18 orders, 53 families, and 251 species of alien fshes was documented. Fish Invasiveness Screening Test (FIST) showed that seven (30.43%), eight (34.78%) and eight (34.78%) species were considered to be high, medium and low invasion risks, respectively. After the calibration of the Fish Invasiveness Screening Kit (FISK) v2 using the Receiver Operating Characteristics, a threshold value of 17 for distinguishing between invasive and non-invasive fshes was identifed. As a result, nine species (39.13%) were of high invasion risk. In this study, we found that non-native fshes dominated (85.66%) the freshwater ornamental trade in Klang Valley, while FISK is a more robust tool in assessing the risk of invasion, and for the most part, its outcome was commensurate with FIST. This study, for the frst time, revealed the number of high-risk ornamental fsh species that give an awareness of possible future invasion if unmonitored in Klang Valley, Malaysia. As a global hobby, fshkeeping is cherished by both young and old people.

Abstract A feeding trail was conducted on juvenile of angel fish Pterophyllum scalare to investigate the effect of three different diets such as animal based protein, plant based protein and mixed protein on growth and survival rate of the fish. Juvenile Pterophyllum scalare were divided into three groups, fed with three different protein based diets along with control group. Before the feeding trail, the initial length and weight were measured. During the 4 weeks of experiment, fish were fed 3% body weight at a daily rate.

  • Altum “Orinoco” Angelfish ( Pterophyllum Altum )
    Altum “Orinoco” Angelfish ( Pterophyllum altum ) Order: Perciformes - Family: Cichlidae Type: Tropical Also known as: the Altum Angelfish, Deep Angelfish, or Orinoco Angelfish. Origin: It occurs strictly in the Orinoco River Basin and the Upper Rio Negro watershed in South- ern Venezuela, Southeastern Colombia and extreme Northern Brazil. Pterophyllum altum is the national fish of Venezuela and an image of the fish appears on some currency bills of that country. Overview: They are considered one of the most beautiful angels, but are more difficult to keep than the common angelfish, Pterophyllum scalare. They are also difficult to find in pet stores, as they are usually wild caught. Description: Pterophyllum altum, the species most commonly referred to as angelfish or freshwater angelfish, is the most common species of Pterophyllum held in captivity. Physical Characteristics: The species is the largest of the genus and specimens exceeding 50 cm in height (from tip of dorsal to tip of anal fin) have been reported in the wild; in aquariums, specimens are known to have grown to over 40 cm. Its natural base color is silver but with three brownish/red vertical stripes and red striations into the fins. The species may show red spotting and a bluish green dorsal overcast when mature and when aroused exhibits a black operculum spot. Characteristic of this species is an acute incision or notch above the nares (supraobital indention). All true Orinoco Altum specimens show this trait, whereas commercial hybrids product of crosses to Pterophyllum scalare, that are occasionally performed by breeders to sell them as "Orinoco Altum", may not exhibit the trait or it may appear in a lesser degree.

The freshwater Angelfish stands out for being one of the most beautiful, best-selling and also most popular ornamental fish of tropical waters. Its cultivation is concentrated in the southeastern and southern regions of Brazil, so reproduction of this species in other areas can become a profitable venture. The present study analyzed the economic viability of the cultivation of the freshwater Angelfish, Pterophyllum scalare, in a water recirculation system. To measure the market demand, an interview was conducted with the main tenants in the industry, adding to the estimate. The profitability of the venture was 2,65% in the first year and 11,95% in the second to the tenth year and the payback rate was 38 months or 3 years and 2 months. Small-scale farming proved to be economically viable, presenting attractive profitability indicators compared to other aquaculture enterprises.
