American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists Board of Governors Meeting Student Union Building 207/209 American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists Board of Governors Meeting Student Union Building 207/209 - University of British Columbia Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada 8 August 2012 Maureen A. Donnelly Secretary Florida International University College of Arts & Sciences 11200 SW 8th St. - ECS 450 Miami, FL 33199 [email protected] 305.348.1235 1 July 2012 The ASIH Board of Governor's is scheduled to meet on Wednesday, 8 August 2012 from 5:00 – 7:00 pm in the Student Union Building, Rooms 207/209 at the University of British Columbia. President Beaupre plans to move blanket acceptance of all reports included in this book that cover society business for 2011 and 2012 (in part). The book includes the ballot information for the 2012 elections (Board of Governors Election and General Election held during the Annual Business Meeting). Governors can ask to have items exempted from blanket approval. These exempted items will be acted upon individually. We will also act individually on items exempted by the Executive Committee. Please remember to bring this booklet with you to the meeting. I will ship a few extra copies to Vancouver for the meeting. Please contact me directly (email is best - [email protected]) with any questions you may have. Please notify me if you will not be able to attend the meeting (if you have not contacted me yet) so I can share your regrets with the Governors. I will leave for Vancouver on 7 August so try to contact me before that date if possible. The Annual Business Meeting will be held on Sunday 12 August 2012 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm in The Gage Common Block (please consult the schedule for the room number for the meeting as it has not yet been determined). Please plan to attend both the BOG meeting and Annual Business Meeting. I look forward to seeing you in Vancouver. Sincerely, Maureen A.

  • Behavioral Evidence of Chemical Communication by Male Caudal Fin Organs of a Glandulocaudine Fish (Teleostei: Characidae)
    1 Ichthyological Exploration of Freshwaters/IEF-1127/pp. 1-11 Published 22 September 2020 LSID: http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:483EB8ED-1D49-4584-9030-DE92226A6771 DOI: http://doi.org/10.23788/IEF-1127 Behavioral evidence of chemical communication by male caudal fin organs of a glandulocaudine fish (Teleostei: Characidae) Clayton Kunio Fukakusa* All fishes in the tribe Glandulocaudini have hypertrophied tissue with club cells in the caudal fin (the caudal organ). Because this structure is present only in adult males, it is hypothesized that these cells secrete a reproduction-related pheromone. The hypothesis that the caudal organ releases chemicals that attract females is tested in Mimagoniates inequalis. In a Y-maze and an aquarium, females were attracted to a caudal organ extract and to water that was conditioned with caudal organ-bearing males, respectively, but not to caudal-fin lobe extract or water conditioned with males from which the caudal organs were removed (control stimuli). In tests with male-female pairs, there were no differences in the responses to caudal organ extract and male caudal organ-conditioned water, but the responses to both stimuli differed in relation to the controls. Male-female pairs engaged in fewer courtship events and more agonistic interactions than they did without chemical stimuli and with control stimuli. These results provide evidence for a possible pheromonal system in M. inequalis. The caudal organ is a specialized secretory structure that produces a chemical signal that attracts females and increases the aggressiveness of males.

Además, analizamos los posibles orígenes de esta ictiofauna, postulando que parte de la cuenca del río Valdivia ha funcionado como un sumidero, principalmente su parte alta, con aportes de fuentes tanto costero-Pacífi cas como del Este de Los Andes. Concluimos que el río San Pedro es de particular valor ictiofaunístico por su alta riqueza específi ca, endemismos y características biogeográfi cas. PALABRAS CLAVE: Fauna íctica, Río San Pedro, Endemismos, Conservación, Chile. ABSTRACT Based on three consecutive years of sampling and bibliographic revision, the composition, singularity and conservation status of the San Pedro River ichthyofauna is described. In addition, the potential origin of this Valdivia River ichthyofauna was analyzed and this basin is proposed to have worked like a sink, mainly the higher zone, having been colonized both from Coastal-Pacifi c as from Eastern Andes sources. It is concluded that this river has a particular conservation value due to its high species richness, endemism and biogeographic characteristics.

Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 38.2: 241–252, Doi: https://doi.org/10.32800/ abc.2015.38.0241 Abstract A new species of Bryconamericus (Characiformes, Stevardiinae, Characidae) from the Pacific coast of northwes- tern Ecuador, South America.— A new species of Bryconamericus (Characiformes, Characidae, Stevardiinae) is described from the Pacific coast of northwestern Ecuador, South America. The new species is distinguished from all congeners by the presence in males of bony hooks on the caudal fin rays (vs. absence). The different layers of pigment that constitute the humeral spots have differing degrees of development and structure that are independent of each other. Brown melanophores are distributed in a thin, vertical, superficial layer of the epithelium (layer 1) and in another deeper (layer 2) that overlaps the first and is centered over the lateral–line. B. ecuadorensis has a horizontally oval or elliptical shape layer 2 pigment in the anterior humeral spot (vs. a rectangular or circular layer 2). The new species further differs in having an anterior extension of the caudal peduncle spot (vs. no anterior extension of the caudal peduncle spot) and by having a dark lateral stripe overlaid by the peduncular spot and by the regularly distributed pigmentation on scales on the sides of the body (vs.

  • Constraints on the Timescale of Animal Evolutionary History
    Palaeontologia Electronica palaeo-electronica.org Constraints on the timescale of animal evolutionary history Michael J. Benton, Philip C.J. Donoghue, Robert J. Asher, Matt Friedman, Thomas J. Near, and Jakob Vinther ABSTRACT Dating the tree of life is a core endeavor in evolutionary biology. Rates of evolution are fundamental to nearly every evolutionary model and process. Rates need dates. There is much debate on the most appropriate and reasonable ways in which to date the tree of life, and recent work has highlighted some confusions and complexities that can be avoided. Whether phylogenetic trees are dated after they have been estab- lished, or as part of the process of tree finding, practitioners need to know which cali- brations to use. We emphasize the importance of identifying crown (not stem) fossils, levels of confidence in their attribution to the crown, current chronostratigraphic preci- sion, the primacy of the host geological formation and asymmetric confidence intervals. Here we present calibrations for 88 key nodes across the phylogeny of animals, rang- ing from the root of Metazoa to the last common ancestor of Homo sapiens. Close attention to detail is constantly required: for example, the classic bird-mammal date (base of crown Amniota) has often been given as 310-315 Ma; the 2014 international time scale indicates a minimum age of 318 Ma.

  • A New Species of Hemibrycon(Teleostei
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 5(3):251-257, 2007 Copyright © 2007 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia A new species of Hemibrycon (Teleostei: Characiformes: Characidae) from the río Ucayali drainage, Sierra del Divisor, Peru Vinicius A. Bertaco*, Luiz R. Malabarba*,**, Max Hidalgo*** and Hernán Ortega*** A new characid species, Hemibrycon divisorensis, is described from the río Ucayali drainage, Loreto, Peru. The new species is distinguished from all Hemibrycon species by the presence of a wide black asymmetrical spot covering base of caudal-fin rays and extending along entire length of caudal-fin rays 9 to 12-13 (except from H. surinamensis), and a black band in the lower half of the caudal peduncle extending from the region above the last anal-fin rays to the caudal-fin base. Furthermore, it is distinguished from most species of the genus by the number of scale rows below the lateral line (4-5 vs 5-9), except H. jabonero, H. microformaa, H. orcesi, and H. surinamensis. It differs from these species by scale and fin ray counts and color pattern. The lack of a supraorbital in Hemibrycon species is discussed and confirmed. Uma nova espécie de caracídeo, Hemibrycon divisorensis, é descrita para a bacia do río Ucayali, Loreto, Peru. A nova espécie distingue-se das demais espécies de Hemibrycon pela presença de uma ampla mancha preta assimétrica na base dos raios da nadadeira caudal estendida até a extremidade dos raios 9 a 12 ou 13 (exceto de H. surinamensis), e de uma faixa preta na metade inferior do pedúnculo caudal desde a região acima dos últimos raios da nadadeira anal até a base da nadadeira caudal.
