In these series are published original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of the Museum and setting forth newly acquired facts in the fields of anthropology, biology, geology, history, and technology. Copies of each publication are distributed to libraries and scientific organizations and to specialists and others interested in the various subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902, papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions from the United States National Herbarium. -

The present study was undertaken in order to untangle some of the problems of classification which have beset this group. The genera have not been studied in toto since the days of Bleeker and Gunther. In this study I have made an attempt to clarify the relationships of the various genera, which in some cases has involved revision of generic limits. Lack of time and material has precluded a thorough analysis of the species within any genus; for the same reason no skeletal examinations were possible. It is hoped, however, that a clarification of generic limits through study of external characters will make it easier in the future for interested workers, with sufficient material at hand, to do further and much-needed work on both the genera and the species.

ISBN 978-4-87803-036-9 Corresponding editor: Hiroyuki Motomura (e-mail: [email protected]) v Preface Tropical seas in Southeast Asian countries are well known for their rich fish diversity found in various environments such as beautiful coral reefs, mud flats, sandy beaches, mangroves, and estuaries around river mouths. The South China Sea is a major water body containing a large and diverse fish fauna. However, many areas of the South China Sea, particularly in Malaysia and Vietnam, have been poorly studied in terms of fish taxonomy and diversity. Local fish scientists and students have frequently faced difficulty when try- ing to identify fishes in their home countries.

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. -
Global Catfish Biodiversity 17

ARMBRUSTER* Department of Biological Sciences, Auburn University 331 Funchess, Auburn University, Alabama 36849, USA Abstract.—Catfi shes are a broadly distributed order of freshwater fi shes with 3,407 cur- rently valid species. In this paper, I review the different clades of catfi shes, all catfi sh fami- lies, and provide information on some of the more interesting aspects of catfi sh biology that express the great diversity that is present in the order. I also discuss the results of the widely successful All Catfi sh Species Inventory Project. Introduction proximately 10.8% of all fi shes and 5.5% of all ver- tebrates are catfi shes. Renowned herpetologist and ecologist Archie Carr’s But would every one be able to identify the 1941 parody of dichotomous keys, A Subjective Key loricariid catfi sh Pseudancistrus pectegenitor as a to the Fishes of Alachua County, Florida, begins catfi sh (Figure 2A)? It does not have scales, but it with “Any damn fool knows a catfi sh.” Carr is right does have bony plates. It is very fl at, and its mouth but only in part. Catfi shes (the Siluriformes) occur has long jaws but could not be called large. There is on every continent (even fossils are known from a barbel, but you might not recognize it as one as it Antarctica; Figure 1); and the order is extremely is just a small extension of the lip. There are spines well supported by numerous complex synapomor- at the front of the dorsal and pectoral fi ns, but they phies (shared, derived characteristics; Fink and are not sharp like in the typical catfi sh. -

The SSC's Action Plans, Occasional Papers, newsletter Species and other publications are supported by a wide variety of generous donors including: The Sultanate of Oman established the Peter Scott IUCN/SSC Action Plan Fund in 1990. The Fund supports Action Plan development and implementation. To date, more than 80 grants have been made from the Fund to SSC Specialist Groups. The SSC is grateful to the Sultanate of Oman for its confidence in and support for species conservation worldwide. The Council of Agriculture (COA), Taiwan has awarded major grants to the SSC's Wildlife Trade Programme and Conservation Communications Programme. This support has enabled SSC to continue its valuable technical advisory service to the Parties to CITES as well as to the larger global conservation community. Among other responsibilities, the COA is in charge of matters concerning the designation and management of nature reserves, conservation of wildlife and their habitats, conservation of natural landscapes, coordination of law enforcement efforts as well as promotion of conservation education, research and international cooperation. -
APPENDIX 1 Classified List of Fishes Mentioned in the Text, with Scientific and Common Names
APPENDIX 1 Classified list of fishes mentioned in the text, with scientific and common names. ___________________________________________________________ Scientific names and classification are from Nelson (1994). Families are listed in the same order as in Nelson (1994), with species names following in alphabetical order. The common names of British fishes mostly follow Wheeler (1978). Common names of foreign fishes are taken from Froese & Pauly (2002). Species in square brackets are referred to in the text but are not found in British waters. Fishes restricted to fresh water are shown in bold type. Fishes ranging from fresh water through brackish water to the sea are underlined; this category includes diadromous fishes that regularly migrate between marine and freshwater environments, spawning either in the sea (catadromous fishes) or in fresh water (anadromous fishes). Not indicated are marine or freshwater fishes that occasionally venture into brackish water.

Exchange Rate JPY 100 = IRR 38,068 USD 1 = IRR 42,000 (as of 23 May, 2019) Source: Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran Preface The Mid-term Plan for Conservation of the Anzali Wetland for 2020 – 2030 (Mid-term Plan) was prepared as a final product of the Anzali Wetland Ecological Management Project - Phase II (Phase II Project). The Phase II Project was a 5-year technical cooperation project of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) between May 2014 and May 2019. JICA has supported Iranian government on conservation of the Anzali Wetland since 2003 through “The Study on Integrated Management for Ecosystem Conservation of the Anzali Wetland (2003-2005)” (Master Plan Study) and “Anzali Wetland Ecological Management Project (2007-2008, 2011-2012)” (Phase I Project). The Mid-term Plan will succeed the previous Master Plan for 2005 - 2019, which was prepared under the Master Plan Study. In the 1st year of the Phase II Project, actual implementation status of the Master Plan was reviewed and an Action Plan for 5 years, which is the last 5-year of the Master Plan and period of the Phase II Project, was prepared to facilitate the conservation activity of the Anzali Wetland.
