  • Two New Species of Sea Catfish Named
    Media only: Elisabeth King (507) 212-8216; [email protected] June 30, 2017 Sean Mattson (507) 212-8290; [email protected] Media website: http://www.stri.si.edu/english/about_stri/media/press_releases/index.php Two new species of sea catfish named A group of scientists from Panama, Colombia, Brazil and Puerto Rico have described two new species of sea catfish in the genus Ariopsis, in a report published in the journal Zootaxa. Based on a specimen from Casaya Island in Panama’s Las Perlas archipelago, they named the first new species, Jimenez’s Sea Catfish, Ariopsis jimenzi for Máximo Jiménez Acosta, a zooarchaeology technician in archaeologist Richard Cooke’s lab at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. Jiménez drew attention to the possible existence of a new species based on his examination of bone characteristics in specimens formerly originally believed to be A. seemanni, or the Colombian shark catfish. His observation that the bones belonged to a new species was immediately confirmed by molecular analysis. The second new species was named the New Granada sea catfish, Ariopsis canteri, for Diego Canter Ríos (1984-2007), a young and talented Colombian ichthyologist who died in a traffic accident near Santa Marta, Colombia along with three other biology undergraduates. He collected the data on the new species and also worked on this group of catfish for part of his bachelor’s thesis in marine biology. The zoologists in the team — Alexandre Marceniuk from Brazil’s Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi; Arturo Acero of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, and Ricardo Betancur of the University of Puerto Rico — constructed a family tree showing how the eight different species in the genus Ariopsis are related.

  • "Colombian Shark Catfish" Ariopsis Seemanni in Water of Different Salinities 1Lury N
    Evaluation of the survival and growth of the ornamental "Colombian shark catfish" Ariopsis seemanni in water of different salinities 1Lury N. García, 1Jean P. Lozano, 2Frank A. Chapman 1 Programa de Tecnología en Acuicultura, Universidad del Pacífico, Buenaventura, Valle del Cauca, Colombia; 2 Fisheries & Aquatic Sciences-SFRC, University of Florida, Florida, USA. Corresponding author: F. A. Chapman, [email protected] Abstract. Ariopsis seemanni is one of the few marine catfish in the ornamental fish trade. In Colombia, its country of origin, this catfish is being overfished. The most immediate threat to their populations occurs during their collection and commercialization, in which they are treated as a freshwater fish. The fish are collected in water of varying salinities then immediately placed in freshwater that compromises their health and typically causes mass mortalities. In this study, we evaluated the growth and survival of small juveniles of this catfish raised in water of different salinities (0, 10, 20 ppt), over a period of 60 days. The average weight and length of the catfish at the beginning of the experiment were 2.6±0.1 g and 60.9±2.7 mm, respectively. At the end of the experiment, the catfish reared in salt water (10 and 20 ppt) grew significantly (p < 0.05) from their initial values and were significantly larger (e.g., 6.0±1.3 g and 82±7.4 mm; p < 0.05) than those maintained in freshwater; which did not gain significant weight (e.g., 2.6±0.5 g, p > 0.05). The average size of fish was similar (p > 0.5), within the two salinity treatments.

Aceptado 16-IV-2010. Abstract: Bycatch fish species from shrimp industrial fishery in the Gulf of California, Mexico. The shrimp fishery in the Gulf of California is one the most important activities of revenue and employment for communi- ties. Nevertheless, this fishery has also created a large bycatch problem, principally fish. To asses this issue, a group of observers were placed on board the industrial shrimp fleet and evaluated the Eastern side of the Gulf during 2004 and 2005. Studies consisted on 20kg samples of the capture for each trawl, and made possible a sys- tematic list of species for this geographic area. Fish represented 70% of the capture. A total of 51 101 fish were collected, belonging to two classes, 20 orders, 65 families, 127 genera, and 241 species. The order Perciformes was the most diverse with 31 families, 78 genera, and 158 species. The best represented families by number of species were: Sciaenidae (34) and Paralichthyidae (18) and Haemulidae and Carangidae (16 each).

El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar el efecto de la gonadotropina coriónica humana (HGC) y el extracto pituitario de carpa (EPC) sobre la maduración final y el desove en hembras adultas de la especie. Se utilizaron 24 parejas de peces silvestres capturadas del medio, con un peso promedio de 263.6±42.2 g y 174.4±30.4 g para hembras y machos, respectivamente. Se utilizaron cuatro tratamientos hormonales: T1: 5 mg EPC/kg; T2: 7 mg EPC/kg; T3: 2000 UI HGC/kg y T4: 1000 UI HGC/kg. Se identificaron tres tipos de oocitos en maduración, no se presentaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p>0,05) entre los tratamientos utiliza- dos y la cantidad de oocitos en maduración; no se obtuvo desove espontaneo en ninguna de las hembras inducidas con las dosis hormonales empleadas.

A total of 166 species of freshwater fishes were sampled, a 64% increase over previously published reports. Eight species belong to primary freshwater families, 47 to secondary, and 111 to peripherals. In order to understand the species-drainages relationships, a presence-absence matrix was built for the 19 major drainages and 55 primary and secondary freshwater fishes.
