Received: October 9, 2013; Accepted: January 21, 2014 Abstract We report 69 fish species in 34 teleost families nearly all collected during a preliminary survey of the Sungai Pohara and coastal localities in Sulawesi Tenggara, including Muna Island, in June 2010. Of these species, nine are introduced or exotic and another is questionably native. The family Gobiidae is the most diverse taxon, represented by 14 native species. Atherinomorph fishes of the family Adrianichthyidae are represented in the province by four endemic species and two others that are widespread, all in the genus Oryzias. This fish fauna contrasts sharply with the riverine ichthyo- fauna of the adjacent Sulawesi Tenggara islands of Buton and Kabaena in which there are reportedly no ricefishes and few endemics. New species are being described by the field team and collaborators. Our ultimate goal is to discover, describe, highlight, understand and encourage the conservation of the native freshwater and coastal fish biota of Sula- wesi. Keywords: endemic fishes, introduced species, Oryzias, Sungai Pohara Abstrak Kami melaporkan hasil survei pendahuluan di Sungai Pohara dan perairan pantai di Sulawesi Tenggara, termasuk Pulau Muna. Tujuan utama kami adalah menemukan, mendeskripsikan, menggarisbawahi, memahami, dan menggiatkan upaya konservasi biota ikan air tawar dan pesisir asli Sulawesi. Survei yang dilakukan pada bulan Juni 2010 berhasil mendapatkan 69 spesies dari 34 famili Teleostei. Sembilan spesies di antaranya merupakan ikan introduksi atau bersifat eksotik dan satu spesies masih diragukan, asli setempat atau bukan. Gobiidae merupakan famili yang paling beragam, terwakili oleh 14 spesies asli. Ikan Atherinomorph dari famili Adrianichthyidae terwakili oleh empat spesies endemik di provinsi ini dan dua spesies lain yang penyebarannya sangat luas. Keenam spesies tersebut termasuk dalam genus Oryzias. Keragaman jenis fauna ikan ini sangat berbeda dengan jenis-jenis ikan sungai di dua pulau terdekat di wilayah Sulawesi Tenggara, yaitu Buton dan Kabaena. Di dua pulau tersebut tidak ditemukan ikan padi (Oryzias, ricefishes) dan hanya sedikit spesies endemik. Beberapa spesies baru dideskripsikan oleh tim lapangan dan para kolaborator.

Six distinct species are recognized. Keys, descriptions and illustrations of the species are presented. Morphological differences between and within all six species are clarified. Twenty-two morphometric characters and ten meristic characters were examined, and 14 morphometric and nine meristic characters were found to differ amongst the six species. Anal-fin ray numbers of O. cellebensis, O. javanicus, O. dancena, O. minutillus, O. latipes and O. mekongensis were 22, 23, 24, 19, 18 and 15, respectively. These differences suggest that the six species may be reproductively isolated from each other.

  • Chapter 1 History and Features of Medaka
    P1: IFM/IFM P2: SFK/UKS QC: SFK/UKS T1: SFK BLBS032-Murata March 5, 2009 7:44 Chapter 1 History and Features of Medaka Medaka, Oryzias latipes, is a small egg-laying secondary freshwater fish native to East Asian countries, primarily Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China. This fish is a member of the atherinomorpha taxon Beloniformes. Other members of order Beloniformes are halfbeaks and garfish, many of which are marine fish. This suggests that the common ancestors of medaka and relatives were marine fish and some species of this group adapted to the freshwater environment. This is one possible reason why there are several species adapted to freshwater or seawater within the same genus (Inoue and Takei, 2003). 1.1 History Medaka has been reared as an ornamental fish since the Edo period. Figure 1-1 shows the Ukiyoe painting called “Medaka Scooping,” published in 1767–1768. Two girls are scooping medaka and putting them in a small glass tank. In 1835, Motohisa Mori described three medaka strains: wild type, orange-red type, and white type (see also Figure 1-7). The orange-red type strain has a mutation at the b locus and the white- type strain is a double mutant at the b and r loci. As it is not feasible to isolate a double mutant from wild type medaka, it is likely that relatively large numbers of the orange-red type strain were cultured at the end of Edo period. Medaka was first described in Siebold’s Fauna Japonica, and originally assigned to the genus Poecilia by Temminck and Schlegel in 1846.

The new species differs from all other Nomorhamphus in anal-fi n morphology of adult males. The third or fourth segment of the second anal-fi n ray is composed of two rows of subsegments, giving the third or fourth segment the appearance of being split into two rays. The spiculus is curved dorsally and contacts the distal segments of the third anal-fi n ray with its proximal and middle segments; the distal segments are curved ventrally, giving the spiculus a sickle-like shape. Appearance and colouration of Nomorhamphus rex are similar to N. kolonodalensis and N. ebrardtii, from which it is distinguished by the shape of the andropodium and in having a relatively longer lower jaw. This description brings the number of Nomorhamphus endemic to Sulawesi to ten.

  • Hyperosmotic Tolerance of Adult Fish and Early Embryos Are Determined
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Hyperosmotic tolerance of adult fsh and early embryos are determined by discrete, single loci Received: 2 August 2017 Accepted: 29 March 2018 in the genus Oryzias Published: xx xx xxxx Taijun Myosho1,2, Hideya Takahashi2,3, Kento Yoshida2, Tadashi Sato2, Satoshi Hamaguchi2, Tatsuya Sakamoto3 & Mitsuru Sakaizumi2 The acquisition of environmental osmolality tolerance traits in individuals and gametes is an important event in the evolution and diversifcation of organisms. Although teleost fsh exhibit considerable intra- and interspecifc variation in salinity tolerance, the genetic mechanisms underlying this trait remain unclear. Oryzias celebensis survives in sea and fresh water during both the embryonic and adult stages, whereas its close relative Oryzias woworae cannot survive in sea water at either stage. A linkage analysis using backcross progeny identifed a single locus responsible for adult hyperosmotic tolerance on a fused chromosome that corresponds to O. latipes linkage groups (LGs) 6 and 23. Conversely, O. woworae eggs fertilised with O. celebensis sperm died in sea water at the cleavage stages, whereas O. celebensis eggs fertilised with O. woworae sperm developed normally, demonstrating that maternal factor(s) from O. celebensis are responsible for hyperosmotic tolerance during early development. A further linkage analysis using backcrossed females revealed a discrete single locus relating to the maternal hyperosmotic tolerance factor in a fused chromosomal region homologous to O. latipes LGs 17 and 19. These results indicate that a maternal factor governs embryonic hyperosmotic tolerance and maps to a locus distinct from that associated with adult hyperosmotic tolerance. Adjusting to osmotically diferent environments is a major factor limiting the ability of freshwater organisms to colonize sea water, or for marine organisms to expand their distribution into freshwater systems.

Lawi 1 Aquatic Resources Management Study Program, Hasanuddin University, Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia; 2 Balik Diwa College of Marine Technology, Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Corresponding author: S. B. A. Omar, [email protected] Abstract. Locally called beseng-beseng, Marosatherina ladigesi (Ahl 1936) is a rainbowfish endemic to the Maros karst region in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The colorful > ladigesi male has become popular within ornamental fish hobbyists worldwide. However there is a lack of published information on the basic biological parameters of this species. This research aimed to determine the length-weight relationship and condition factors of two wild M. ladigesi populations. Sampling was carried out in two studies. In the first study, samples were collected 12 times at fortnightly intervals from October 2013 to March 2014. The fish were caught using a rectangular net (3 x 1m), 0.5 cm mesh size, from Bantimurung River (N = 338) and Pattunuang River (N = 331), both in Maros District. The samples were examined in the Fisheries Biology Laboratory, Hasanuddin University. The fish collected from Bantimurung river comprised 69 males and 269 females, while those from Pattunuang River comprised 88 males and 243 females. In the second study, samples were collected 8 times from July to October 2020. The number of samples obtained from the Bantimurung River was 206 individuals, while in the Pattunuang River no fish samples were obtained.

  • Medaka — a Model Organism from the Far East
    REVIEWS MEDAKA — A MODEL ORGANISM FROM THE FAR EAST Joachim Wittbrodt*, Akihiro Shima‡ and Manfred Schartl§ Genome sequencing has yielded a plethora of new genes the function of which can be unravelled through comparative genomic approaches. Increasingly, developmental biologists are turning to fish as model genetic systems because they are amenable to studies of gene function. Zebrafish has already secured its place as a model vertebrate and now its Far Eastern cousin — medaka — is emerging as an important model fish, because of recent additions to the genetic toolkit available for this organism. Already, the popularity of medaka among developmental biologists has led to important insights into vertebrate development.

Sulawesi is the largest island of the Wallacea. Here, we present an annotated checklist of fish species record- ed in Sulawesi’s inland waters. We recognize a total of 226 species from 112 genera and 56 families. Gobiidae (41 species), Adrianichthyidae (20 species) and Telmatherinidae (19 species) are most species-rich, making up a total of 43% of the total species diversity. 65 species are endemic to Sulawesi’s freshwaters, including 19 Tematherinidae, 17 Adrianichthyi- dae, and 17 Zenarchopteridae. 44% of the inland fish fauna are obligate freshwater fishes, followed by euryhaline (38%) and amphi-, ana- or diadromous (29%) taxa. 65 species have been recorded from lacustrine environments. However, we stress that the data available are not representative for the island’s freshwater habitats. The fish species diversity of the spectacular lakes is largely explored, but the riverine ichthyofaunas are in clear need of further systematic exploration.
