Zoological Studies 40(2): 103-126 (2001) A Review of Lanternfishes (Families: Myctophidae and Neoscopelidae) and Their Distributions around Taiwan and the Tungsha Islands with Notes on Seventeen New Records John Ta-Ming Wang* and Che-Tsung Chen Graduate School of Fisheries Science, National Taiwan Ocean University, Keelung, Taiwan 202, R.O.C. Fax: 886-2-28106688. E-mail: [email protected] (Accepted December 20, 2000) John Ta-Ming Wang and Che-Tsung Chen (2001) A review of lanternfishes (Families: Myctophidae and Neoscopelidae) and their distributions around Taiwan and the Tungsha Islands with notes on seventeen new records. Zoological Studies 40(2): 103-126. Lanternfishes collected during 9 cruises from 1991 to 1997 were studied. The area sampled lies between 19°N and 25°N and 114°E and 123°E. The specimens collected in this area comprise 40 species belong to 16 genera, among which 17 species are first records. These first record species include Benthosema fibulatum, Bolinichthys supralateralis, Electrona risso, Hygophum proximum, H. reinhardtii, Lampadena anomala, Lobianchia gemellarii, Lampanyctus niger, L. turneri, L. tenuiformis, Myctophum asperum, M. aurolaternatum, M. nitidulum, M. spinosum, Notolychnus valdiviae, Notoscopelus caudispinosus, and N. resplendens. Among these, six species, Bolinichthys supralateralis, Electrona risso, Lampanyctus turneri, Lampadena anomala, Notolychnus valdiviae, and Notoscopelus caudispinosus, are first records for the South China Sea, and the species, Lampadena anomala is a new record for Asian oceans (Table 1). Four species (Triphoturus microchir, Diaphus diadematus, D. latus, and D. taaningi) were controversial in previous reports, so they are discussed in this study. Geographic distributions and localities of catches of all lanternfish species are shown on the maps (Figs. -

A New Phylogenetic Test for Comparing Multiple High‐
ORIGINAL ARTICLE doi:10.1111/evo.12743 A new phylogenetic test for comparing multiple high-dimensional evolutionary rates suggests interplay of evolutionary rates and modularity in lanternfishes (Myctophiformes; Myctophidae) John S. S. Denton1,2,3 and Dean C. Adams4 1Department of Ichthyology and Richard Gilder Graduate School, American Museum of Natural History, New York, New York 10024 2Current Address: Department of Vertebrate Paleontology, American Museum of Natural History, New York, New York 10024 3E-mail: [email protected] 4Department of Ecology, Evolution and Organismal Biology, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa 50011 Received April 10, 2015 Accepted July 22, 2015 The interplay between evolutionary rates and modularity influences the evolution of organismal body plans by both promoting and constraining the magnitude and direction of trait response to ecological conditions. However, few studies have examined whether the best-fit hypothesis of modularity is the same as the shape subset with the greatest difference in evolutionary rate. Here, we develop a new phylogenetic comparative method for comparing evolutionary rates among high-dimensional traits, and apply this method to analyze body shape evolution in bioluminescent lanternfishes. We frame the study of evolutionary rates and modularity through analysis of three hypotheses derived from the literature on fish development, biomechanics, and biolu- minescent communication. We show that a development-informed partitioning of shape exhibits the greatest evolutionary rate differences among modules, but that a hydrodynamically informed partitioning is the best-fit modularity hypothesis. Furthermore, we show that bioluminescent lateral photophores evolve at a similar rate as, and are strongly integrated with, body shape in lanternfishes. These results suggest that overlapping life-history constraints on development and movement define axes of body shape evolution in lanternfishes, and that the positions of their lateral photophore complexes are likely a passive outcome of the interaction of these ecological pressures. -

339–354 a Review on Mesopelagic Fishes Belonging to Family
Author version: Rev. Fish Biol. Fish., vol.21; 2011; 339–354 A Review on Mesopelagic Fishes belonging to family Myctophidae 1*Ms.Venecia Catul, 2* Dr. Manguesh Gauns, 3Dr. P.K Karuppasamy 1*[email protected]; Tel: 91-9890618568, Fax: 91-0832-2450217 National Institute of Oceanography, Dona Paula, Goa, India 2 *[email protected]; Tel: 91-0832-2450217 National Institute of Oceanography, Dona Paula, Goa, India 3 [email protected]; Tel: 91- 9447607809 National Institute of Oceanography, Regional Centre, Kochi, India *- Corresponding authors 1 Abstract Myctophids are mesopelagic fishes belonging to family Myctophidae. They are represented by approx. 250 species in 33 genera. Called as “Lanternfishes”, they inhabit all oceans except the Arctic. They are well-known for exhibiting adaptations to oxygen minimum zones (OMZ- in the upper 2000m) and also performing diel vertical migration between the meso- and epipelagic regions. True to their name, lanternfishes possess glowing effect due to the presence of the photophores systematically arranged on their body, one of the important characteristic adding to their unique ecological features. Mid-water trawling is a conventional method of catching these fishes which usually accounts for biomass approx. in million tones as seen in Arabian Sea (20-100 million) or Southern ocean (70-200 million). Ecologically, myctophids link primary consumers like copepods, euphausiids and top predators like squids, whales and penguins in a typical food web. Lantern fishes become a major part of deep scattering layers (DSL) during migration along with other fauna such as euphausiids, medusae, fish juveniles, etc. Like any other marine organisms, Myctophids are susceptible to parasites like siphonostomatoid copepods, nematode larvae etc in natural habitats. -

Although the use of these large datasets is becoming more widespread, little to no work Deep Sea has been done in estimating phylogenetic relationships using UCEs in deep-sea fishes. Among deep-sea animals, Taxonomy the 257 species of lanternfishes (Myctophiformes) are among the most important open-ocean lineages, re- Classification presenting half of all mesopelagic vertebrate biomass. With this relative abundance, they are key members of the midwater food web where they feed on smaller invertebrates and fishes in addition to being a primary prey item for other open-ocean animals. Understanding the evolution and relationships of midwater organisms generally, and this dominant group of fishes in particular, is necessary for understanding and preserving the underexplored deep-sea ecosystem. -
