We are a local group of aquatic enthusiasts. Formed in 1952, the Greater Akron Aquarium Society is a non -profit, non-commercial organization. Our membership ranges from the beginning hobbyist to the advanced aquarist with many years of experience. The goals of our club are to promote the care, study, breeding and exhibition of aquarium related aquatic life and to promote interest in the aquarium hobby. MEETINGS: Our meetings are held on the first Thursday of each month at 8:00 p.m. at the Mogadore Community/Senior Center, 3857 Mogadore Road, Mogadore, Ohio. It is located East of Route 532 across from McDonald’s in the former post office building. Visitors are always welcome, it costs absolutely nothing to attend a meeting and look us over. MEMBERSHIP: The cost is only $10 for adults, a couple or a family (includes children under 10 years of age) and $5.00 for a junior membership (10 to 17 years) Membership provides an opportunity to socialize with others that share your interests, a subscription to our bi -monthly magazine and more. AGEND A: Our meeting agenda is simple and informal. The meeting will begin at 8:00 p.m. with a short business meeting. Immediately following is the program for the evening which usually lasts about 45 minutes. Our programs consist of a speaker, slide program, movie or perhaps a panel discussion always on a particular subject related to the hobby or various species of fish. Following the program is a short refreshment break. After which the winners of the Bowl Show are announced, the Breeder’s Award Program fish are auctioned and tickets are drawn for the raffle. THE BOWL SHOW: Each month members can bring in fish for specific classes to compete for first, second and third place awards. The charge for each entry is only $.25. Members also compete for annual awards by accumulating wins throughout the year. BREEDER’S AWARD and HORTICULTURE AWARD PROGRAMS: members can receive recognition for spawning species of fish or propagating aquatic plants. All that is required is to turn in a minimum of six fry from the spawn that are between 30 and 90 days old. Members earn certificates for each species and can work towards plaques in different categories. EQUIPMENT RAFFLE: The raffle table has such items as tanks, fish food and aquarium accessories that are donated by national manufacturers, area dealers or purchased by the Society. Tickets may be purchased by anyone attending the meeting. Save your losing tickets for the Christmas Party raffle. ANNUAL SHOW: The Ultra-Aqua show is held during the summer at the Tallmadge community Center. This has become one of the largest all -species tropical fish shows in North America. It is an international gathering of hobbyists to display their fish in class competition, talk fish and to learn about the hobby from each other.

  • Nannostomus Grandis Spec. Nov. – Ein Neuer Ziersalmler Aus Brasilien Mit Bemerkungen Zu N
    Vertebrate Zoology 61 (3) 2011 283 283 – 298 © Museum für Tierkunde Dresden, ISSN 1864-5755, 22.12.2011 Nannostomus grandis spec. nov. – ein neuer Ziersalmler aus Brasilien mit Bemerkungen zu N. beckfordi GÜNTHER, 1872, N. anomalus STEINDACHNER, 1876 und N. aripirangensis MEINKEN, 1931 (Teleostei: Characiformes: Lebiasinidae) AXEL ZARSKE Senckenberg Naturhistorische Sammlungen Dresden, Museum für Tierkunde, A.-B.-Meyer-Bau, Königsbrücker Landstraße 159, 01109 Dresden, Germany. axel.zarske(at)senckenberg.de Accepted on October 14, 2011. Published online at www.vertebrate-zoology.de on December 13, 2011. > Abstract Nannostomus grandis spec. nov. from Brazil is described. The new species is closely related to N. beckfordi. The differences are (1) the body depth (N. grandis spec. nov. is more elongated as N. beckfordi, body depth 4,66 to 5,35 vs. 4,3 to 5,0 times in SL), (2) head length (N. grandis spec. nov. has an shorter head than N. beckfordi, 4,46[4,39 to 4,50] vs. 3,8[3,5 to 4,0] times in SL), (3) the size of body (N. grandis spec. nov. grows larger than N. beckfordi, max. 46.2 vs. max. 35.0 mm SL), and (4) the coloration in life is completely different (e.g. ventral-fi ns colourless in N. grandis spec. nov. vs. with milky white tips in N. beckfordi). N. grandis spec. nov. is the largest known species of the genus. This fi sh was captured and bred in captivity as N. anomalus in the beginning of the 20th century by aquarists (Rachow, 1926). The taxon N. anomalus Steindachner, 1976 is not clearly defi ned because the fi rst description is not informative, the type specimens are lost and the species is not fi gured in the fi rst description.

ZooKeys 881: 53–89. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.881.32055 Abstract This study presents an extensive review of published and unpublished occurrence records of fish species in the Rio Negro drainage system within the Brazilian territory. The data was gathered from two main sources: 1) litterature compilations of species occurrence records, including original descriptions and re- visionary studies; and 2) specimens verification at the INPA fish collection. The results reveal a rich and diversified ichthyofauna, with 1,165 species distributed in 17 orders (+ two incertae sedis), 56 families, and 389 genera. A large portion of the fish fauna (54.3% of the species) is composed of small-sized fishes < 10 cm in standard length.

This study aimed to catalog the fishes of this basin. Collections were performed with active and passive gear in 35 sampling sites, between 2012 and 2014, in several habitats (main channels, streams, floodplains, permanent and temporary pools, ponds, and dams). A total of 2,545 specimens were collected, belonging to 55 species distributed in 10 orders, 31 families, and 50 genera; 30 of these are strictly freshwater species, and 25 estuarine-marine species.

Editor in charge: Uwe Fritz Abstract A new miniature species of the freshwater fsh genus Priocharax is described from the Rio Jamari, Rio Madeira drainage, Amazon basin. Priocharax varii sp. n. is the fourth species currently recognized in the genus and shares with the other three the presence of a conspicuous larval pectoral fn in adults, a fully toothed maxilla, a triangular pseudotympanum situated anterior to the ffth vertebra and a tiny size com- bined with a translucent body. The new species is diagnosed from congeners in having an adipose fn, a unique feature within Priocharax. Molecular identifcation of the new species and the other valid Priocharax species supports the morphological fndings.
