Wainwrightb a Departamento de Biología, Universidad del Valle, Cali, Colombia b Department of Evolution and Ecology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, United States c Instituto de Estudios en Ciencias del Mar, CECIMAR, Universidad Nacional de Colombia sede Caribe, El Rodadero, Santa Marta, Colombia ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: We present a phylogenetic analysis with divergence time estimates, and an ecomorphological assessment of the Percomorpharia role of the benthic-to-pelagic axis of diversification in the history of haemulid fishes. Phylogenetic analyses were Fish performed on 97 grunt species based on sequence data collected from seven loci. Divergence time estimation Functional traits indicates that Haemulidae originated during the mid Eocene (54.7–42.3 Ma) but that the major lineages were Morphospace formed during the mid-Oligocene 30–25 Ma. We propose a new classification that reflects the phylogenetic Macroevolution history of grunts. Overall the pattern of morphological and functional diversification in grunts appears to be Zooplanktivore strongly linked with feeding ecology. Feeding traits and the first principal component of body shape strongly separate species that feed in benthic and pelagic habitats. The benthic-to-pelagic axis has been the major axis of ecomorphological diversification in this important group of tropical shoreline fishes, with about 13 transitions between feeding habitats that have had major consequences for head and body morphology.

    BYCATCH OF THE ARTISANAL SHRIMP FISHERY IN THE GULF OF CALIFORNIA (SONORA AND SINALOA) MEXICO Report prepared by Alejandro Balmori Ramírez (INAPESCA, CRIP-Guaymas) and Rufino Morales Azpeitia (CIBNOR-Unidad Guaymas), in collaboration with Everardo Miranda Mier and Jesús Guadalupe Padilla Serrato. Guaymas, Sonora, México. June 2012 Summary One of the most important fishing resources in Mexico is shrimp, this is due to its high economic and social value. Nonetheless, many non-target species are captured incidentally during shrimp-fishing activities, and grouped as faunal companions or shrimp bycatch (SBC). Most of the SBC species have not been studied and the impact of this fishery upon them is yet unknown. This document presents the results of a study on the artisanal shrimp fisheries’ bycatch within the bays of Guaymas, Bahía de Lobos, and El Tóbari, in the State of Sonora; and in Santa Maria La Reforma in the State of Sinaloa, during the 2011–2012 shrimp fishing season. The study collected shrimp and SBC samples, identified the organisms to the species level, and recorded biological sampling (biometrics). Logbook data and sampling information was captured in a database. We documented 854 fishing hauls for all of the bays. SBC analysis shows a total composition of 46 identified species belonging to different taxonomic groups such as fishes, crustaceans, gastropods, and elasmobranchs, and an additional 10 species identified to the genus level only. The most diverse group was that of bony fishes and the most dominant species was the swimming crab (Callinectes spp.). The amount of SBC species varied spatially (lagoon system). During the shrimping activity, a high percentage (20-30%) of negative fishing hauls (i.e., without any SBC captures) was recorded, indicating that the artisanal shrimp fishery does not generate any bycatch in a third of all fishing hauls.

That work has been the main source of information for freshwater fishes of El Salvador up to today. Based on the combination of an intensive literature review, electronic database searches, re-identification of museum specimens, and fieldwork, we hereby provide an updated checklist of the inland fishes of El Salvador. This checklist provides distributional data at the Salvadoran hydrographical and political (by department) levels.

Zoosystema 39 (4): 501-598. https://doi.org/10.5252/z2017n4a5 ABSTRACT 313 nominal species of monogenean parasites of aquatic vertebrates occurring in Mexico are included in this checklist; in addition, records of 54 undetermined taxa are also listed. All the monogeneans registered are associated with 363 vertebrate host taxa, and distributed in 498 localities pertaining to 29 of the 32 states of the Mexican Republic. The checklist contains updated information on their hosts, habitat, and distributional records. We revise the species list according to current schemes of KEY WORDS classification for the group. The checklist also included the published records in the last 11 years, Platyhelminthes, Mexico, since the latest list was made in 2006. We also included taxon mentioned in thesis and informal distribution, literature. As a result of our review, numerous records presented in the list published in 2006 were Actinopterygii, modified since inaccuracies and incomplete data were identified. Even though the inventory of the Elasmobranchii, Anura, monogenean fauna occurring in Mexican vertebrates is far from complete, the data contained in our Testudines.
