Special thanks are given to Dr. Martin Kumar of South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI) for his support and advice throughout this study. I give my sincere thanks to Dr. Kohji Mabuchi for his providing mitochondrial DNA data of Lake Biwa common carp from Japan. I wish to thank my colleagues, both past and present, from the Molecular Ecology and Biodiversity Laboratory, who provided me with various assistance. In particular, Mark Schultz, Mike Truong, Leon Meggs, Sally Williamson, Claire McClusky, Amanda Peucker, Rebecca Overeem, Dr. Matthew Baranski, Celeste Jacq, Dr. Nicholas Murphy and Dr. Adam Miller have assisted me greatly with laboratory techniques.

And this was suggested as one of the earliest records for fossil cyprinids. Unfortunately, this specimen is poorly preserved and reveals no more morphological information than its serrated last unbranched dorsal and anal fin rays. Recently, some new specimens were unearthed from the same locality, where C. maomingensis was discovered. In addition to the serrated dorsal and anal fin rays, these new materials also show that the pattern and shape of their pharyngeal teeth obviously differ from that of Cyprinus but resemble that of Procypris. However, its number of the branched dorsal fin rays and number of vertebrae are much less than that in Procypris.

    Molecular phylogeny ofthe Puntius (Hamilton, 1822) based on nuclear gene RAG2 Faezeh Yazdani Moghaddam1, *, Mansour Aliabadian1, *, Siti Khalijah Daud2, Mahvash Seifali3 1Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, Iran. 2Biology Department, Faculty of Science, Universiti Putra Malaysia, 43400UPM Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia. 3Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, University Alzahra, Tehran, Iran. Received: 11September 2012, 2012; Accepted: 24 November 2012 Abstract The tropical Asian cyprinid genus Puntius is a major part of the ichthyofauna in Southeast Asia. Systematic status of the genus Puntius among Cyprinidae, the most prominent freshwater fish all over the world, remain to be substantiated. The molecular phylogenetic analyses derived from Recombination activating genesequences (RAG2) for 35 representative samples of Malaysian Puntius and their allies, indicated paraphyly of the genus Puntius among common cyprinid groups of Southeast Asia. At a larger scale, while the monophyly of Cyprinidae and the subfamily Cyprininae were confirmed, the monophyly of the tribe Barbinini, Cyprinini, or Puntius (Systomus) were not supported. Keywords: Cyprinidae, Puntius, Systomus, recombination activating gene 2, phylogeny. Introduction which contains some 220 nominal species (about 120 of these considered valid), has seen a Family Cyprinidae with more than 3,268 species significant accretion of new species in recent and 321 genera is one of the largest freshwater years. Many species are traded internationally as fish families in the world, in which, phylogenetic ornamentals (Collins et al., 2012). Carrying the relationships among Malaysian cyprinids remain generic name, Puntius, was made familiar by largely unresolved (Cunha et al., 2002; Liu and Hamilton in 1822, but later researchers have used Chen, 2003).

Relationships among these lineages and the enigmatic taxa Rhodeus were not well-resolved. Tests of mono- phyly of subfamilies and previously proposed relationships were examined by constraining cytochrome b sequences data to fit previous hypotheses. The analysis of constrained trees indicated that sequence data were not consistent with most previously proposed relationships. Inconsistency was largely attributable to Asian taxa, such as Xenocypris and Xenocyprioides. Improved understanding of historical and taxonomic relationships in Cyprinidae will require further morphological and molecular studies on Asian cyprinids and taxa representative of the diversity found in Africa. 2002 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles.
