  • A New Species of the Genus Harpadon (Aulopiformes, Synodontidae) from the North-Eastern Arabian Sea, India
    Indian J. Fish., 62(4) : 1-9, 2015 1 A new species of the Genus Harpadon (Aulopiformes, Synodontidae) from the north-eastern Arabian Sea, India U. GANGA, JINESH P. THOMAS AND SANDHYA SUKUMARAN ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, P. B. No. 1603, Ernakulam North P. O. Kochi - 682 018, Kerala, India e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT A new species of Harpadon Lesueur, 1825 captured from the continental slope area 19° 53’ N - 69° 23’E (north-eastern Arabian Sea) is described. The species Harpadon nudus sp. nov. was identified possessing a prominent trilobed caudal fin and a wide mouth with strong fang like barbed teeth and has been distinguished from its congeners by the following combination of characters: slender, completely scaleless body with very short pectoral (8.6 - 13.8% SL) and pelvic (16.4 - 21.6% SL) fins, large eyes (9.1 - 15.1% HL) with narrow inter-orbital width (15% of HL) and single pair of nares, situated close to the tip of the narrow snout. Morphologically it differs from the partially scaled species such as Harpadon nehereus in having very short pectoral fins not reaching up to its dorsal fin, single pair of nares and a pointed snout in dorsal view. It can be distinguished from Harpadon microchir by its greater head length of 22 - 26% SL; absence of scales at the base of the adipose fin and on the lateral line as well as the dorsal fin count of 12 rays. It is differentiated from Harpadon mortenseni by its lower lateral line pores count (40 - 43), higher number of branchiostegals (17 to 20), absence of scales on the lateral line or caudal peduncle and absence of vomerine teeth.

As there has been no comprehensive phylogenetic study of this taxon, we performed a parsimony analysis using a data matrix with 87 characters, 31 terminal taxa for ingroup, and three taxa for outgroup. The analysis produced 93 equally parsimonious trees (L = 437 steps; CI = 0.24; RI = 0.49).

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.

Biota Neotropica. 19(1): e20170432. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1676-0611-BN-2017-0432 Abstract: Demersal fishery resources are abundant on continental shelves, on the tropical and subtropical coasts, making up a significant part of the marine environment. Marine demersal fishery resources are captured by various fishing methods, often unsustainably, which has led to the depletion of their stocks. In order to inventory the marine demersal ichthyofauna on the Southern Brazilian coast, as well as their conservation status and distribution, this study analyzed the composition and frequency of occurrence of fish captured by pair trawling in 117 fishery fleet landings based in the State of São Paulo between 2005 and 2012.

Abstract The otoliths described in this study from the Late Eocene to Early Oligocene (biozone P18) of the Kishima Formation near Karatsu, Saga Prefecture, represent the earliest record of fossil otoliths from Japan and in fact the entire Northwest Pacific. They were obtained from outcrops along the Shimohirano River. A total of 13 otolith-based teleost taxa are recognized, 11 of which being identifiable to species level and new to science and five new genera. The new otolith-based genera are: Nishiberyx n. gen. (Berycidae), Sagaberyx n. gen. (Berycoidei family indet.), Namicauda n. gen. (Polymixiidae), Ortugobius n. gen. (tentatively placed in Gobiidae) and Cornusolea n. gen. (Soleidae); the new species are: Rhynchoconger placidus n. sp., Rhynchoconger subtilis n. sp., Saurida macilenta n. sp., Nishiberyx nishimotoi n. sp., Sagaberyx kishimaensis n. sp., Namicauda pulvinata n. sp., Liza brevirostris n. sp., Pontinus? karasawai n. sp., Ortugo- bius cascus n.

Riv. It. Paleontol. Strat., 126(2): 395-446. Keywords: K-Pg boundary event; Gadiformes; Heterenchelyidae; otolith; extinction; survival. Abstract. Otolith assemblages have rarely been studied across the K-Pg boundary. The late Maastrichtian Kemp Clay of northeastern Texas and the Fox Hills Formation of North Dakota, and the early Danian Clayton Formation of Arkansas therefore offer new insights into how teleost fishes managed across the K-Pg boundary as reconstructed from their otoliths. The Kemp Clay contains 25 species, with 6 new species and 2 in open nomenclature and the Fox Hills Formation contains 4 species including 1 new species. The two otolith associations constitute the Western Interior Seaway (WIS) community.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In this second paper dedicated to report on deep-sea fishes from Brazilian waters, mainly from Bahia, the presence of one family and three species of Aulopoidei is reported for the first time from Brazilian waters: the aulopid Aulopus filamentosus (royal flagfin), the synodontids Saurida normani and Synodus poeyi (shortjaw lizardfish and offshore lizardfish, respectively). The presence of Synodus saurus and Saurida suspicio in Brazilian waters is discussed, and a key to the Western Atlantic Aulopoidei is provided. Key words: Lizardfishes, flagfin, Aulopus, Saurida, Synodus, Aulopidae, Synodontidae, deep-sea fishes Introduction According to Davis (2010), the world-wide marine and usually deep-sea, benthic or pelagic Aulopiformes order, contains 16 families, split in 3 suborders of extant taxa: Alepisauroidei (Alepisauridae, Bathysauridae, Bathysauroididae, Bathysauropsidae, Chlorophthalmidae, Evermannellidae, Giganturidae, Ipnopidae, Notosudidae, Paralepididae, Scopelarchidae and Sudidae), Paraulopoidei (Paraulopidae), and Aulopoidei (Aulopidae, Pseudotrichonotidae, and Synodontidae).

(2018). Relationship between sagittal otolith size and fish size inEngraulis encrasicolus and Sardina pilchardus (Osteichthyes: Clupeiformes) in the southern Aegean Sea, Turkey. Aquatic Sciences and Engineering, 33(3): 72-76. ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to determine the regressions between otolith size (length and height), oto- lith weight vs. fish length, and weight of European anchovyEngraulis encrasicolus (Linnaeus, 1758) (n=360) and European pilchard Sardina pilchardus (Walbaum, 1792) (n=360), living off Güllük Bay, Turkey. Fish were caught using a purse seine between January and March 2014 in the southern Aegean Sea. No differences were found between the size and weight of the left and right otoliths. Equations were used to reconstruct the original dimensions of prey from the size of hard structures found in food samples of piscivorous preda- tors living in or in the vicinity of the aquatic habitat. A linear regression model was used to determine the relationship between fish length and otolith size, whereas an exponential regression model was used to describe the relationships between lengths and weights of otoliths and fish for both species. All regressions yielded high coefficients of determination (r2) of 0.78–0.93 for E. encrasicolus and 0.80–0.95 for S. pilchardus. We conclude that otolith length and otolith weight are good indicators of the length and weight of the two species.

As there has been no comprehensive phylogenetic study of this taxon, we performed a parsimony analysis using a data matrix with 87 characters, 31 terminal taxa for ingroup, and three taxa for outgroup. The analysis produced 93 equally parsimonious trees (L = 437 steps; CI = 0.24; RI = 0.49). The topology of the majority rule consensus tree was: (Sardinioides + Hemisaurida + (Nardorex + (Atolvorator + (Protostomias + Yabrudichthys) + (Apateopholis + (Serrilepis + (Halec + Phylactocephalus) + (Cimolichthys + (Prionolepis + ((Eurypholis + Saurorhamphus) + (Enchodus + (Paleolycus + Parenchodus))))))) + ((Ichthyotringa + Apateodus) + (Rharbichthys + (Trachinocephalus + ((Apuliadercetis + Brazilodercetis) + (Benthesikyme + (Cyranichthys + Robertichthys) + (Dercetis + Ophidercetis)) + (Caudadercetis + (Pelargorhynchus + (Nardodercetis + (Rhynchodercetis + (Dercetoides + Hastichthys)))))). The group Enchodontoidei is not monophyletic. Dercetidae form a clade supported by the presence of very reduced neural spines and possess a new composition. Enchodontidae are monophyletic by the presence of middorsal scutes, and Rharbichthys was excluded. Halecidae possess a new composition, with the exclusion of Hemisaurida. This taxon and Nardorex are Aulopiformes incertae sedis.
