    Pacific Plate Biogeography, with Special Reference to Shorefishes VICTOR G. SPRINGER m SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 367 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoo/ogy Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Phylogenetic relationships of 43 species in 11 genera, representing four subfamilies of the family Lutjanidae and two genera of the family Caesionidae, were inferred using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI). Further assessment using the mtDNA control region (CR) was carried out to infer the relationship between the Indian and western Pacific types of Lutjanus russellii collected from the coast of Peninsular Malaysia. A total of 11 and 12 species were sequenced for COI and CR genes, respectively. Clade formation reflects, to some extent, the species groupings based on morphological characteristics and their biogeography. The close phylogenetic relationship between Pinjalo pinjalo and the Lutjanus red snappers (Lutjanus malabaricus and Lutjanus sebae) warrants a taxonomic revision of the former as the two genera are currently separated based on non-exclusive morphological characters. A sequence divergence of 4.2% between the Indian and western Pacific types of L.

Snapper and grouper are important fishery resources with great commercial value for exporters to major international markets. The fisheries also support the livelihoods and food security of many local, small-scale fishing communities worldwide. It is therefore all the more critical that management of these fisheries improves, thus ensuring this important resource will remain available to provide both food and income. Landings of snapper and grouper have been steadily increasing: in the 1950s, total landings were about 50,000 tonnes, but they had grown to more than 612,000 tonnes by 2013.

    INT. J. BIOL. BIOTECH., 8 (3): 455-461, 2011. MORPHOLOGY AND EARLY LIFE HISTORY PATTERN OF SOME LUTJANUS SPECIES: A REVIEW *Zubia Masood and Rehana Yasmeen Farooq Department of Zoology, University of Karachi, Karachi-75270, Pakistan. *email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The present study was based on the literature review of the fishes belonging to the snapper family Lutjanidae. Data parameters about the morphology and early life history pattern not measured during the survey were taken from the FishBase data base (see www.fishbase.org and Froese et al., 2000). These data parameters included, Lmax (maximum length), Linf (length infinity); K (growth rate); M (natural mortality); LS (life span); Lm (length at maturity); tm (age at first maturity); to (age at zero length); tmax (longevity) and also the morphological data. Morphological and life history data were taken only for five species of fishes belongs to genus Lutjanus i.e., L.johnii, L.malabaricus, L.lutjanus, L.fulvus, L.russellii. The main objective of this study was to review some aspects of distribution, morphology and feeding habits, spawning and also acquired and analyze information on selected life history variables to described patterns of variation among different species of snappers. Keywords: Lutjanidae, morphology, life history. INTRODUCTION This family is commonly known as “Snappers” are perch-like fishes, moderately elongated, fairly compressed (Allen and Talbot, 1985). Small to large fishes, ranging from 15cm-120cm or 1m in length and 40 kg in weight. Mouth is terminal, jaw bear large canine teeth (no canines in Apherius); Preopercle usually serrate. Dorsal fin continuous or slightly notched with 10-12 spines and 10-17 soft rays; anal fin with 3 spines and 7-11 soft rays; pelvic fins originating just behind pectoral base.
