(Actinopterygii: Cyprinodontiformes: Riv- ulidae), a new killifish from the Tapanahony River drainage in southeast Surinam FRANS B. M. VERMEULEN1 & TOMAS HRBEK2* 1 Tanki Leendert 194 c, Noord, Aruba; [email protected] 2 Department of Biology, University of Puerto Rico Rio Piedras, San Juan, PR 00931, Puerto Rico; [email protected] * Correspondence to: TOMAS HRBEK Abstract Kryptolebias sepia n. sp. is described from small forest tributaries of the Tapanahony and Palumeu Rivers which form part of the Upper Marowijne River system in southeast of Surinam. This species is distinguished from all other Kryptolebias spp. and Rivulus spp. by strong melanism on the body, its ability to change color pattern rapidly, the lack of strong sexual dimorphism, and the presence of pronounced adult/juvenile dichromatism. Key words: Rivulus, Kryptolebias, Guyana Shield, mtDNA, speciation, molecular phylogeny, biodiversity Introduction The fauna and flora of the Guyana shield is particularly rich. While extensive floristic sur- veys have been undertaken, relatively little work has been conducted on the fish fauna of this region. Most surveys have been done in Venezuela, and Brazilian surveys have con- centrated primarily on the middle Rio Negro drainage. The first and last major survey of Guyana was conducted by Eigenmann in 1909 (Eigenmann 1912), and more recently his route has been retraced by researchers focusing on loricariid catfishes (Hardman et al. 2002). A survey of freshwater fishes of French Guiana has also been published (Keith et al. 2000a, b). With the exception of a cichlid survey by Kullander and Nijssen (1989), no systematic ichthyological survey has been done in Surinam. Although these studies con- centrated on larger species and not small species inhabiting primary forest streams, they still revealed an incredible diversity of larger and small fish species. Small fish species are an especially interesting component of Guyana shield drainages, in particular those of the Accepted by L. Page: 13 Mar. 2005; published: 31 Mar. 2005 1.

This type of tail primitively results from an ontogenetic fusion of centra (bodies of vertebrae) and the possession of paired bracing bones located bilaterally along the dorsal region of the caudal skeleton, derived ontogenetically from the neural arches (uroneurals) of the ural (tail) centra.

  • Resolving Cypriniformes Relationships Using an Anchored Enrichment Approach Carla C
    Stout et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2016) 16:244 DOI 10.1186/s12862-016-0819-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Resolving Cypriniformes relationships using an anchored enrichment approach Carla C. Stout1*†, Milton Tan1†, Alan R. Lemmon2, Emily Moriarty Lemmon3 and Jonathan W. Armbruster1 Abstract Background: Cypriniformes (minnows, carps, loaches, and suckers) is the largest group of freshwater fishes in the world (~4300 described species). Despite much attention, previous attempts to elucidate relationships using molecular and morphological characters have been incongruent. In this study we present the first phylogenomic analysis using anchored hybrid enrichment for 172 taxa to represent the order (plus three out-group taxa), which is the largest dataset for the order to date (219 loci, 315,288 bp, average locus length of 1011 bp). Results: Concatenation analysis establishes a robust tree with 97 % of nodes at 100 % bootstrap support. Species tree analysis was highly congruent with the concatenation analysis with only two major differences: monophyly of Cobitoidei and placement of Danionidae. Conclusions: Most major clades obtained in prior molecular studies were validated as monophyletic, and we provide robust resolution for the relationships among these clades for the first time. These relationships can be used as a framework for addressing a variety of evolutionary questions (e.g. phylogeography, polyploidization, diversification, trait evolution, comparative genomics) for which Cypriniformes is ideally suited.

Poeciliids have figured prominently in previous studies on the roles of dispersal and vicari- ance in shaping current geographic distributions. Most recently, Hrbek et al. combined a OPEN ACCESS DNA-based phylogeny of the family with geological models to provide a biogeographic per- spective that emphasized the role of both vicariance and dispersal.

  • Fishes of the River Vjosa – an Annotated Checklist
    © Zool.-Bot. Ges. Österreich, Austria; download unter www.zobodat.at Acta ZooBot Austria 155, 2018, 163–176 Fishes of the River Vjosa – an annotated Checklist Spase Shumka, Paul Meulenbroek, Fritz Schiemer & Radek Šanda Based on a combination of intensive fieldwork for a period of thirteen years (2004– 2017), literature review and review of museum specimens, we hereby provide an up- dated checklist of the fishes of Albanian part of River Vjosa. Our results show that there are at least 31 species of fishes inhabiting the river system, of which 27 are native, including eight species endemic to the Balkans. With 11 species, Cyprinidae are by far the most specious family, followed by Mugilidae (five). Salmonidae and Acipenseridae are represented by 2 species each. The remaining ten families are represented by a single species. At least four species (Pseudorasbora parva, Oncorhynchus mykiss, Carassius sp., Gambusia holbrooki) were introduced into the Vjosa basin. The provided list includes the distribution of each species in River Vjosa, as well as annotations referring to in- troductions, taxonomic-and their conservation status.

  • Geometric Morphometrics and Phylogeny of the Catfish Genus Mystus Scopoli (Siluriformes:Bagridae) and North American Cyprinids (Cypriniformes)
    Geometric Morphometrics and Phylogeny of the Catfish genus Mystus Scopoli (Siluriformes:Bagridae) and North American Cyprinids (Cypriniformes) by Shobnom Ferdous A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 14, 2013 Copyright 2013 by Shobnom Ferdous Approved by Jonathan W. Armbruster, Department of Biological Sciences, Auburn University & Committee Chair Craig Guyer, Department of Biological Sciences, Auburn University Michael C. Wooten, Department of Biological Sciences, Auburn University Lawrence M. Page, Curator of Fishes, Florida Museum of Natural History Abstract Understanding the evolution of organismal form is a primary concern of comparative biology, and inferring the phylogenetic history of shape change is, therefore, a central concern. Shape is one of the most important and easily measured elements of phenotype, and shape is the result of the interaction of many, if not most, genes. The evolution of morphological traits may be tightly linked to the phylogeny of the group. Thus, it is important to test the phylogenetic dependence of traits to study the relationship between traits and phylogeny. My dissertation research has focused on the study of body shape evolution using geometric morphometrics and the ability of geometric morphometrics to infer or inform phylogeny. For this I have studied shape change in Mystus (Siluriformes: Bagridae) and North American cyprinids. Mystus Scopoli 1771 is a diverse catfish group within Bagridae with small- to medium-sized fishes. Out of the 44 nominal species worldwide, only 30 are considered to be part of Mystus. Mystus is distributed in Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Malay Peninsula, Vietnam, Sumatra, Java and Borneo.
