Koi Cyprinus carpio haematopterus Class: Actinopterygii Order: Cypriniformes Family: Cyprinidae Characteristics: Small to very large size fish, depending on age. Koi are an ornamental, decorative variety of domesticated common carp. Carp were first bred for color in 1820 in Japan. There are over 20 different Koi varieties, distinguished mostly by their color patterns. Koi vary in color with different varieties being white, black, red, yellow, blue, and cream. The possible colors are virtually limitless, due to specific breeding of the fish. Koi are hardy fish, and can even survive winter temperatures. However, they do require the water to have a great deal of oxygen while they are polluting it quickly. Oxygen pumps or water circulation devices are often Range & Habitat: necessary in smaller ponds. Carp are originally found in central Europe and Asia. Carp were first Behavior: domesticated in East Asia, and Koi are very friendly fish. They can even learn to recognize the person have since spread almost feeding them and take food from the hand. They live peacefully with other worldwide. Koi are generally kept fish species, and will school together if they are comfortable in their in outdoor koi ponds or water environment. Koi will stir up the sediment from the bottom of the pond, gardens. causing very dirty water. Reproduction: Koi reproduce similarly to most other fish species. This reproductive method is called spawning. The female will lay a large numbers of eggs, and one or more males will externally fertilize the eggs. Koi will produce thousands of offspring, called fry, at one time. Diet: Lifespan: up to 100-200 Wild: Omnivores eating mostly algae, insect larvae, and pond vegetation. years in captivity.

The Status of the Endangered Freshwater Fishes in China and the Analysis of the Endangered Causes Institute of Hydrobiology
The status of the endangered freshwater fishes in China and The analysis of the endangered causes HE Shunping, CIIEN Yiyu Institute of Hydrobiology, CAS, Wuhan, ITubei Province, 430072 Abstract More than 800 species of freshwater fishes are precious biological resources in inland water system of China. Among them, there are a great number of endemic and precious group, and a lot of monotypic genera and species. Recently, owing to the synthetic effects of the natural and human-beings, many of these fishes gradually became endangered. The preliminary statistic result indicates that 92 species are endangered fishes and account for 10% of the total freshwater fishes in China. For the purpose of protection of the biodiversity of fishes, it is necessary to analyse these causes which have led the fishes to become endangered. This report could be used as a scientific reference for researching and saving the endemic precious freshwater fishes in China. Key words Endangered freshwater fishes, Endangered causes, China In the process of the evolution of living things, along with the origin of life, the extinction of life also existed. In the long_ life history, the speciation and the extinction of living things often keep a relative balance. As time goes on, especially after by the impact of human beings activity of production and life, the pattern of the biodiversity were changed or damaged, more or less. At last, in the modern society, human beings activity not only accelerate the progress of society and the development of economy, but also, as a special species, become the source of disturbing_ to other species.

Khanom, T Khatun, M.A.S. Jewel*, M.D. Hossain and M.M. Rahman Department of Fisheries, University of Rajshahi, Rajshahi 6205, Bangladesh Abstract: The study was conducted to investigate the abundance and present status of fish biodiversity in the Shiba river at Tanore Upazila of Rajshahi district, Bangladesh. The study was conducted from November, 2016 to February, 2017. A total of 30 species of fishes were recorded belonging to nine orders, 15 families and 26 genera. Cypriniformes and Siluriformes were the most diversified groups in terms of species. Among 30 species, nine species under the order Cypriniformes, nine species of Siluriformes, five species of Perciformes, two species of Channiformes, two species of Mastacembeliformes, one species of Beloniformes, one species of Clupeiformes, one species of Osteoglossiformes and one species of Decapoda, Crustacea were found. Machrobrachium lamarrei of the family Palaemonidae under Decapoda order was the most dominant species contributing 26.29% of the total catch. In the Shiba river only 6.65% threatened fish species were found, and among them 1.57% were endangered and 4.96% were vulnerable. The mean values of Shannon-Weaver diversity (H), Margalef’s richness (D) and Pielou’s (e) evenness were found as 1.86, 2.22 and 0.74, respectively. Relationship between Shannon-Weaver diversity index (H) and pollution indicates the river as light to moderate polluted.

This type of tail primitively results from an ontogenetic fusion of centra (bodies of vertebrae) and the possession of paired bracing bones located bilaterally along the dorsal region of the caudal skeleton, derived ontogenetically from the neural arches (uroneurals) of the ural (tail) centra.

Box 4111, Iran. 2Fisheries Department, Agricultural and Natural Resources Faculty, Gonbad kavoos University, Gonbad kavoos, Iran. * . Email: [email protected] Abstract: This research was conducted to study the body shape changes in common carp, Cyprinus carpio var. Sazan during early developmental stages using landmark- based geometric morphometric method. For this purpose, a total number of 210 larvae from hatching time till 55 days post hatching (dph) were sampled. For extracting body shape data, the right side of specimens was photographed and nine landmark-points were defined and digitized on 2D pictures using tpsDig2 software. After GPA, the landmark data were analyzed using Relative Warp analysis, regression of shape on total length and cluster analysis. The results showed that change of body shape in common carp during early development includes (1) increase in the head depth, and trunk length from hatching up to 8 dph, (2) increase in the body depth, and the head and tail lengths from 8-20 dph, and (3) increase in the head length and depth from 20-55 dph. The cluster analysis was revealed that larval stages can be divided into four phases, including eleuthero-embryonic, larva, younger juvenile and juvenile.

Parasitology Is a Tool for Identifying the Original Biotope of the Gibel Carp (Carassius Auratus Gibelio Berg, 1932) Parazitoló

Crucian carp [Carassius carassius (Linnaeus, 1758)] is a native fish species in European waters. The goldfish, a species of Chinese origin arrived to Europe long time ago, and at the time when Linnaeus in 1758 published his Systema Naturae he described two Carassius species, the crucian carp as Cyprinus carassius and the goldfish as Cyprinus auratus. During the last two centuries 13 other Carassius spp. were described which proved to be synonymous of C. carassius and 3‐3 species as synonymous of Carassius auratus auratus and C. auratus gibelio, respectively. The authors confute the European origin of Carassius gibelio Bloch, called as Prussian carp. They compared infections of the gibel carp and goldfish with myxosporeans in Europe and in the Far‐East and found that these fishes in the Far‐East have been infected by several host specific Myxobolus and Thelohanellus species, while in Europe of them only a single species is known. Great differences in the range of myxosporean spp. suggest that both gibel carp and goldfish are Far‐ East origin fishes which arrived to Europe in the historical times.

Bergmann2, Mansour El-Matbouli1,* 1Clinical Division of Fish Medicine, University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna, Austria 2Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut, Federal Research Institute for Animal Health, Institute of Infectology, Greifswald-Insel Riems, Germany ABSTRACT: Common carp (including ornamental koi carp) Cyprinus carpio L. are ecologically and economically important freshwater fish in Europe and Asia. C. carpio have recently been endangered by a third cyprinid herpesvirus, known as cyprinid herpesvirus-3 (CyHV-3), the etio- logical agent of koi herpesvirus disease (KHVD), which causes significant morbidity and mortality in koi and common carp. Clinical and pathological signs include epidermal abrasions, excess mucus production, necrosis of gill and internal organs, and lethargy. KHVD has decimated major carp populations in Israel, Indonesia, Taiwan, Japan, Germany, Canada, and the USA, and has been listed as a notifiable disease in Germany since 2005, and by the World Organisation for Ani- mal Health since 2007. KHVD is exacerbated in aquaculture because of the relatively high host stocking density, and CyHV-3 may be concentrated by filter-feeding aquatic organisms. CyHV-3 is taxonomically grouped within the family Alloherpesviridae, can be propagated in a number of cell lines, and is active at a temperature range of 15 to 28°C. Three isolates originating from Japan (KHV-J), USA (KHV-U), and Israel (KHV-I) have been sequenced. CyHV-3 has a 295 kb genome with 156 unique open reading frames and replicates in the cell nucleus, and mature viral particles are 170 to 200 nm in diameter.

Resolving Cypriniformes Relationships Using an Anchored Enrichment Approach Carla C
Stout et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2016) 16:244 DOI 10.1186/s12862-016-0819-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Resolving Cypriniformes relationships using an anchored enrichment approach Carla C. Stout1*†, Milton Tan1†, Alan R. Lemmon2, Emily Moriarty Lemmon3 and Jonathan W. Armbruster1 Abstract Background: Cypriniformes (minnows, carps, loaches, and suckers) is the largest group of freshwater fishes in the world (~4300 described species). Despite much attention, previous attempts to elucidate relationships using molecular and morphological characters have been incongruent. In this study we present the first phylogenomic analysis using anchored hybrid enrichment for 172 taxa to represent the order (plus three out-group taxa), which is the largest dataset for the order to date (219 loci, 315,288 bp, average locus length of 1011 bp). Results: Concatenation analysis establishes a robust tree with 97 % of nodes at 100 % bootstrap support. Species tree analysis was highly congruent with the concatenation analysis with only two major differences: monophyly of Cobitoidei and placement of Danionidae. Conclusions: Most major clades obtained in prior molecular studies were validated as monophyletic, and we provide robust resolution for the relationships among these clades for the first time. These relationships can be used as a framework for addressing a variety of evolutionary questions (e.g. phylogeography, polyploidization, diversification, trait evolution, comparative genomics) for which Cypriniformes is ideally suited.
