LAVETT SMITH1 In 1860, Felipe Poey described Serranus dubius from a single specimen that probably had been collected near Havana. Poey commented that the new form seemed to be intermediate between Serranus creolus [= Paranthias furcifer (Valenciennes)] and the guativere [Cephalopholis fulva (Linnaeus)]. The fishermen who brought the specimen to Poey had also noticed this intermediacy: ". ce qui fit dire a l'un d'eux que c'etait un hybride du creolus et du Guativere." Poey went on to say that this was not the first time that he had seen fishermen, embarrassed at being unable to name a rare species, call some fish a hybrid to cover their ignorance. In this case, however, the fishermen were probably correct. In 1868 Poey transferred Serranus dubius to Enneacentrus Gill, a genus originally proposed to contain Serranus ouatabili Valenciennes ( = Ceph- alopholisfulva) (Gill, 1865). In 1874 Poey created the genus Menephorus for the enigmatic Serranus dubius, and a year later (1875) he described a sec- ond, similarly intermediate fish as another member, Menephorus punctiferus, of this new genus. 1 Assistant Curator, Department ofIchthyology, the American Museum ofNatural History. 2 AMERICAN MUSEUM NOVITATES NO. 2276 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Poey's original specimens are in the Museum of Comparative Zoo- logy at Harvard University, and through the courtesy of Dr.

  • Below the Mesophotic C
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Below the Mesophotic C. C. Baldwin1, L. Tornabene2 & D. R. Robertson3 Mesophotic coral ecosystems, which occur at depths of ~40 to 150 m, have received recent scientifc attention as potential refugia for organisms inhabiting deteriorating shallow reefs. These ecosystems merit research in their own right, as they harbor both depth-generalist species and a distinctive reef-fsh Received: 31 August 2017 fauna. Reef ecosystems just below the mesophotic are globally underexplored, and the scant recent literature that mentions them often suggests that mesophotic ecosystems transition directly into Accepted: 12 February 2018 those of the deep sea. Through submersible-based surveys in the Caribbean Sea, we amassed the most Published: xx xx xxxx extensive database to date on reef-fsh diversity between ~40 and 309 m at any single tropical location. Our data reveal a unique reef-fsh assemblage living between ~130 and 309 m that, while taxonomically distinct from shallower faunas, shares strong evolutionary afnities with them. Lacking an existing name for this reef-faunal zone immediately below the mesophotic but above the deep aphotic, we propose “rariphotic.” Together with the “altiphotic,” proposed here for the shallowest reef-faunal zone, and the mesophotic, the rariphotic is part of a depth continuum of discrete faunal zones of tropical reef fshes, and perhaps of reef ecosystems in general, all of which warrant further study in light of global declines of shallow reefs. Studies of deep tropical-reef ecosystems have surged during the past decade1–10. This is due in part to the global decline of shallow coral reefs having sparked interest in the potential for deep reefs to act as refugia for shallow-water organisms stressed by warming surface waters or deteriorating reefs.

B. No. 1603, Ernakulam North P. O., Cochi - 682 018, Kerala - INDIA Received: 30.07.2009 Abstract: Sacura boulengeri (Heemstra, 1973) is a rare serranid fi sh (Subfamily: Anthiinae) having very disjunct distribution in the western Indian Ocean. Th e rarity of the species is evident from earlier reports and, so far, no related studies on the species have been published except on taxonomy and distributional records. In the present investigation, the length-weight relationship of Sacura boulengeri was estimated to be W = 0.0777 × L2.690 (with 95% confi dence intervals for b and r2). An analysis of the stomach contents revealed that sergestid shrimps and copepods were the major food items of the diet. Key words: Length-weight relationship, Anthiinae, Sacura boulengeri, Indian waters Th e subfamily Anthiinae of the family Serranidae Knowledge of length-weight relationships (LWRs) (Perciformes) consists of about 21 genera with 170 is useful in fi shery science for assessing length-based species (Nelson, 2006). Anthiine fi shes are beautifully growth and the well-being of the population. In the colored fi shes that inhabit coral and deep-reef present work, the LWR (W = a × Lb) calculated for habitats in tropical and warm temperate seas, and S. boulengeri specimens caught off the western coast some of these species are taxonomically confusing.

ZooKeys 786: 105–115. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.786.27382 Abstract During a recent expedition to St. Paul’s Rocks, Atlantic Ocean, a distinctive and previously unknown spe- cies of Anthiadinae was collected at a depth of 120 m. A genetic analysis indicated the undescribed species is a member of the genus Tosanoides, which was only known to occur in the Pacific Ocean. This new taxon is distinguishable from all other Tosanoides species by the following combination of characters: soft dorsal fin rays 15–16; anal fin rays 9; ventral scale rows 9–10; last dorsal spine the longest (instead first through fourth). Here Tosanoides aphrodite sp. n. is described and illustrated, only known from St. Paul’s Rocks. Keywords Brazil, coral reefs, deep reefs, fish endemism, oceanic island, rebreather diving Introduction The group commonly known as anthias fishes are classified within the serranid subfamily Anthiadinae Poey, 1861 (van der Laan et al.
