Celestial Pearl Danio", a New Genus and Species of Colourful Minute Cyprinid Fish from Myanmar (Pisces: Cypriniformes)
THE RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 2007 55(1): 131-140 Date of Publication: 28 Feb.2007 © National University of Singapore THE "CELESTIAL PEARL DANIO", A NEW GENUS AND SPECIES OF COLOURFUL MINUTE CYPRINID FISH FROM MYANMAR (PISCES: CYPRINIFORMES) Tyson R. Roberts Research Associate, Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. - Celestichthys margaritatus, a new genus and species of Danioinae, is described from a rapidly developing locality in the Salween basin about 70-80 km northeast of Inle Lake in northern Myanmar. Males and females are strikingly colouful. It is apparently most closely related to two danioins endemic to Inle, Microrasbora rubescens and "Microrasbora" erythromicron. The latter species may be congeneric with the new species. The new genus is identified as a danioin by specializations on its lower jaw and its numerous anal fin rays. The colouration, while highly distinctive, seems also to be characteristically danioin. The danioin notch (Roberts, 1986; Fang, 2003) is reduced or absent, but the danioin mandibular flap and bony knob (defined herein) are present. The anal fin has iiiSVz-lOV: rays. In addition to its distinctive body spots and barred fins the new fish is distinguished from other species of danioins by the following combination of characters: snout and mouth extremely short; premaxillary with an elongate and very slender ascending process; mandible foreshortened; body deep, with rounded dorsal and anal fins; modal vertebral count 15+16=31; caudal fin moderately rather than deeply forked; principal caudal fin rays 9/8; scales vertically ovoid; and pharyngeal teeth conical, in three rows KEY WORDS. - Hopong; principal caudal fin rays; danioin mandibular notch, knob, and pad; captive breeding. -

Corydoras Tukano, a New Species of Corydoradine Catfish from the Rio Tiquié, Upper Rio Negro Basin, Brazil (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes: Callichthyidae)
Neotropical Ichthyology, 1(2):83-91, 2003 Copyright © 2003 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Corydoras tukano, a new species of corydoradine catfish from the rio Tiquié, upper rio Negro basin, Brazil (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes: Callichthyidae) Marcelo R. Britto* and Flávio C.T. Lima** A new Corydoras species from the rio Tiquié, upper rio Negro system, Amazonas, Brazil, is described. This taxon was previously referred to as “Corydoras species ‘Asher’”, “Corydoras cf. reynoldsi”, and “Corydoras aff. reynoldsi” in the aquarist literature. The new taxon can be distinguished from all its congeners, except Corydoras reynoldsi and C. weitzmani, by its color pattern, consisting of three large, dark blotches, the first one (“mask”) on the head, across the eye; the second one on the trunk at the level of dorsal fin; and the third one on the trunk at the level of the adipose fin. It can be distinguished from Corydoras reynoldsi mainly by the development of trunk blotches; and from C. weitzmani by the presence of a dusky saddle between the dorsal and adipose fins, the second trunk blotch extending vertically from the adipose-fin base to the anal-fin base, and the presence of four dark stripes in the caudal fin. Uma nova espécie de Corydoras do rio Tiquié, bacia do alto rio Negro, estado do Amazonas, Brasil, é descrita. Este táxon foi anteriormente citado na literatura aquarista como “Corydoras species ‘Asher’”, “Corydoras cf. reynoldsi” e “Corydoras aff. reynoldsi”. O novo táxon pode ser distinguido de todos seus congêneres, exceto Corydoras reynoldsi e C. weitzmani, por seu padrão de colorido, que consiste em três grandes manchas pretas, a primeira (“máscara”) na cabeça, através do olho; a segunda no tronco, no nível da nadadeira dorsal; e a terceira no tronco, no nível da nadadeira adiposa. -

Email: [email protected] *author for correspondence Abstract Boraras naevus, new species, is described from peninsular Thailand. It is distinguished from other congeners by features of its sexually dimorphic colour pattern, principal caudal-fin, pelvic-fin and branched dorsal-fin ray counts, lateral scale row counts, and a number of osteological features. Key words: Cypriniformes, Danioninae, Taxonomy, Southeast Asia Introduction Members of the cyprinid genus Boraras Kottelat & Vidthayanon are small, brightly coloured fishes that inhabit swamps and slow-flowing streams throughout much of Southeast Asia (Kottelat & Vidthayanon, 1993). Reaching maximum adult sizes less than 20 mm in standard length, all members of Boraras are considered miniature fishes (sensu Weitzman & Vari, 1988) and exhibit a number of reductive characteristics, including the absence of the body lateral line, reduced cephalic lateral line system, low numbers of scales, branched fin rays, gill rakers and pharyn- geal tooth rows (Kottelat & Vidthayanon, 1993), and the complete absence of a number of skeletal elements (Con- way, 2005; Britz & Conway, 2009). -

The dataset comprises 1 individual from each of 15 species, 13 Danios and two outgroups. These data are from McClusckey and Postlethwait, 2015. • Software - All are open source software • Stacks (http://catchenlab.life.illinois.edu/stacks/) - A set of interconnected open source programs designed initially for the de novo assembly of RAD sequences into loci for genetic maps, and extended to be used more flexibly in studies of organisms with and without a reference genome. • RAxML (http://sco.h-its.org/exelixis/web/software/raxml/index.html) - A software program written by the Exelixis Lab for the construction of maximum likelihood phylogenetic trees. !1 Exercise IV. Building a RADseq-based Phylogenetic Tree 1. In this exercise we will be working on a set of RAD-seq data taken from a number of Danio species, and two outgroups to Danio. We want to understand how these species relate to one another phylogenetically by examining variable sites between the genomes of these 15 species. The data set includes one sample per species. Our goal is to process the raw RAD data and reconstruct loci shared across the species. -

Fish Overview
The Toledo Zoo/ThinkingWorks Teacher Overview for the Fish Lessons Ó2003 Teacher Overview: Fish Fish have many traits that are unique to this particular class of animals. Below is a list of general fish traits to help you and your students complete the ThinkingWorks menu. This lesson focuses on typical fish that most people are familiar with, not on atypical fish such as seahorses. Fish are divided into three groups or classes, each with its own set of features. These classes include the bony fish (e.g., tuna and bass), cartilaginous fish (e.g., sharks and rays) and jawless fish (e.g., lampreys). We have included a list of the different fish found at The Toledo Zoo. Most of the fish are found in the Aquarium but there are also fish in the Diversity of Life. Note that animals move constantly in and out of the Zoo so the list below may be inaccurate. Please call the Zoo for a current list of fish that are on exhibit and their locations. Typical Fish Traits Lightweight, strong scales Lateral line for detecting for protection changes in turbulence along a fish as well as changes in water pressure Gas bladder for buoyancy, stability (internal) Symmetrical tail for Most fish have a well powerful swimming developed eye for locating prey, detecting predators and finding a mate. Flexible “lips” for picking up food Gills for extracting oxygen from the water Maneuverable, paired fins for Lightweight, strong moving forward and controlling skeleton for support roll, pitch and yaw q Fish are cold-blooded, obtaining heat from the surrounding water. -

Spawning Method: Egg-layer Corydoras (AKA cory cats and cories) are very hardy and make good beginner fish for a community tank. For species tank, the dwarf cories do better. There are generally 2 types of cory, the dwarf cory and the normal cory. Brochis are not cories. The dwarf cory is great for nano tanks because it usually remains less than 3cm long ( about 1.3 inch). They do well in community tanks too and the only special care they require is not putting them together with aggressive fish like Cichlids. Dwarf Cichlids may do well with them occasionally but avoid them if you can.
