  • Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean Volume
    ISBN 0-9689167-4-x Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean (Davis Strait, Southern Greenland and Flemish Cap to Cape Hatteras) Volume One Acipenseriformes through Syngnathiformes Michael P. Fahay ii Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean iii Dedication This monograph is dedicated to those highly skilled larval fish illustrators whose talents and efforts have greatly facilitated the study of fish ontogeny. The works of many of those fine illustrators grace these pages. iv Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean v Preface The contents of this monograph are a revision and update of an earlier atlas describing the eggs and larvae of western Atlantic marine fishes occurring between the Scotian Shelf and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (Fahay, 1983). The three-fold increase in the total num- ber of species covered in the current compilation is the result of both a larger study area and a recent increase in published ontogenetic studies of fishes by many authors and students of the morphology of early stages of marine fishes. It is a tribute to the efforts of those authors that the ontogeny of greater than 70% of species known from the western North Atlantic Ocean is now well described. Michael Fahay 241 Sabino Road West Bath, Maine 04530 U.S.A. vi Acknowledgements I greatly appreciate the help provided by a number of very knowledgeable friends and colleagues dur- ing the preparation of this monograph. Jon Hare undertook a painstakingly critical review of the entire monograph, corrected omissions, inconsistencies, and errors of fact, and made suggestions which markedly improved its organization and presentation.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

  • Marine Fishes of the Azores: an Annotated Checklist and Bibliography
    MARINE FISHES OF THE AZORES: AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST AND BIBLIOGRAPHY. RICARDO SERRÃO SANTOS, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS SANTOS, RICARDO SERRÃO, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS 1997. Marine fishes of the Azores: An annotated checklist and bibliography. Arquipélago. Life and Marine Sciences Supplement 1: xxiii + 242pp. Ponta Delgada. ISSN 0873-4704. ISBN 972-9340-92-7. A list of the marine fishes of the Azores is presented. The list is based on a review of the literature combined with an examination of selected specimens available from collections of Azorean fishes deposited in museums, including the collection of fish at the Department of Oceanography and Fisheries of the University of the Azores (Horta). Personal information collected over several years is also incorporated. The geographic area considered is the Economic Exclusive Zone of the Azores. The list is organised in Classes, Orders and Families according to Nelson (1994). The scientific names are, for the most part, those used in Fishes of the North-eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean (FNAM) (Whitehead et al. 1989), and they are organised in alphabetical order within the families. Clofnam numbers (see Hureau & Monod 1979) are included for reference. Information is given if the species is not cited for the Azores in FNAM. Whenever available, vernacular names are presented, both in Portuguese (Azorean names) and in English. Synonyms, misspellings and misidentifications found in the literature in reference to the occurrence of species in the Azores are also quoted. The 460 species listed, belong to 142 families; 12 species are cited for the first time for the Azores.

  • Psenes Maculatus, and Psenes Cyanophrys (Nomeidae: Perciformes), from Korea
    Korean J. Ichthyol. 13(3), 195~200, 2001 First Record of the Two Driftfish, Psenes maculatus, and Psenes cyanophrys (Nomeidae: Perciformes), from Korea Jung-Goo Myoung, Sun-Hyung Cho, Jong Man Kim and Yong Uk Kim* Marine Resources Laboratory, KORDI Ansan P.O. Box 29, 425-600, Korea, *Department of Marine Biology, Pukyong National University, Busan, 608-737, Korea Psenes maculatus and P. cyanophrys of family Nomeidae were collected for the first time off the coast of Tongyeong, Kyongsangnam-do, Korea. Specimens were catched with drifting seaweed patches on June and July, 1998. Young Psenes maculatus has six black bands (‘⁄’ shape) on the body, and ‘Tti- mul-reung-dom’ is proposed as the Korean name. Psenes cyanophrys differs from P. pellucidus in having a compressed oval body shape scales on the check, and 16 longitudinal lines on the body. ‘Jul-mu-nui-mul- reung-dom’ is proposed as the Korean name. Key words : Nomeidae, Psenes maculatus, P. cyanophrys the coast of Tongyeong-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, Introduction Korea (Fig. 1). Specimens were measured by stereo microscope and caliper (1/10 mm). Counts Nomeidae have three genus such as Nomeus, and measurements follow Chyung (1977). The Cubiceps and Psenes and widely distributed in tropical-subtropical waters of Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Ocean (Abe, 1959; Ahlstrom et al., 1976; Masuda et al., 1984). In the Korean water, 3 species (Cubiceps squamiceps (Lloyd), Psenes pellucidus Lütken and Psenes arafurensis Günther) were recorded (The Korean Society of Systematic Zoology, 1997; Lee et al., 2000). Young Psenes maculatus and young P. cyanophrys live beneath of drifting seaweed patches or jellyfish and move to mid or bottom layer with growth (Haedrich, 1967; Nakabo, 2000).

  • Checklist of the Marine Fishes from Metropolitan France
    Checklist of the marine fishes from metropolitan France by Philippe BÉAREZ* (1, 8), Patrice PRUVOST (2), Éric FEUNTEUN (2, 3, 8), Samuel IGLÉSIAS (2, 4, 8), Patrice FRANCOUR (5), Romain CAUSSE (2, 8), Jeanne DE MAZIERES (6), Sandrine TERCERIE (6) & Nicolas BAILLY (7, 8) Abstract. – A list of the marine fish species occurring in the French EEZ was assembled from more than 200 references. No updated list has been published since the 19th century, although incomplete versions were avail- able in several biodiversity information systems. The list contains 729 species distributed in 185 families. It is a preliminary step for the Atlas of Marine Fishes of France that will be further elaborated within the INPN (the National Inventory of the Natural Heritage: https://inpn.mnhn.fr). Résumé. – Liste des poissons marins de France métropolitaine. Une liste des poissons marins se trouvant dans la Zone Économique Exclusive de France a été constituée à partir de plus de 200 références. Cette liste n’avait pas été mise à jour formellement depuis la fin du 19e siècle, © SFI bien que des versions incomplètes existent dans plusieurs systèmes d’information sur la biodiversité. La liste Received: 4 Jul. 2017 Accepted: 21 Nov. 2017 contient 729 espèces réparties dans 185 familles. C’est une étape préliminaire pour l’Atlas des Poissons marins Editor: G. Duhamel de France qui sera élaboré dans le cadre de l’INPN (Inventaire National du Patrimoine Naturel : https://inpn. mnhn.fr). Key words Marine fishes No recent faunistic work cov- (e.g. Quéro et al., 2003; Louisy, 2015), in which the entire Northeast Atlantic ers the fish species present only in Europe is considered (Atlantic only for the former).

  • W. Indian Ocean)
    click for previous page NOM 1983 FAO SPECIES IDENTIFICATION SHEETS FISHING AREA 51 (W. Indian Ocean) NOMEIDAE Man-of-war fishes, also driftfishes Slender to deep, laterally compressed fishes (in Psenes the young may be quite deep-bodied becoming less so with growth); caudal peduncle deep, more than 5% of standard length. Adipose tissue around eyes developed in most species; opercular and preopercular margins entire or finely denticulate; opercle very thin, with 2 flat, weak spines; 6 branchiostegal rays; mouth small, the maxilla rarely extending to below eye, supramaxilla absent; jaw teeth small, uniserial conical or flattened and knife-like (in some Psenes); small teeth also present on vomer, palatines (roof of mouth), on the basibranchials and sometimes on tongue; pharyngeal sacs with toothed papillae in upper and lower sections, these papillae in about 5 broad longitudinal bands, their bases stellate, teeth seated on top of a central stalk. Two dorsal fins, the first with about 10 slender spines folding into a groove, the longest spine at least as long as the longest ray of the second dorsal fin; anal fin with 1 to 3 spines, not separated from the rays; second dorsal and anal fin bases approximately the same length and covered with scales; pectoral fins becoming long and wing-like with growth, their bases inclined about 45°; pelvic fins attached to abdomen by a thin membrane and folding into a narrow groove, the fins greatly produced and expanded in young Nomeus and some Psenes; caudal fin forked, the lobes often folded to overlap one another. Lateral line high, following dorsal profile and often not extending onto caudal peduncle.
