Corresponding author: *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The Western Australian deep-water tonguesole Cynoglossus westraliensis n. sp. is described from off North West Cape, Western Australia, based on two specimens collected at a depth of 250 metres. The new species is characterised within the Cynoglossus carpenteri species group by the snout relatively long, bluntly rounded; head length 21-25% of SL, snout length 9.3-11.6% of SL (43.4-46.5% of HL); eyes not contiguous; corner of mouth nearer to posterior edge of opercle than to tip of snout; ocular side with 3 lateral lines, midlateral-line scales 111-115, scale rows between midlateral and dorsolateral lines 20, blind side without lateral lines; ctenoid scales on ocular side, cycloid scales on blind side; dorsal-fin-rays 120-126; anal-fin rays 105-106; caudal-fin rays 8; gill chamber and peritoneum black. A key to the species of the Cynoglossus carpenteri species-group is presented. Keywords: Tonguesole, Cynoglossidae, Western Australia, New species, Identification key, Distribution.

Cuddalore-Dt, Tamilnadu, India Government Arts College, Viruthachalam Submitted: 31 Jan 2020 Accepted: 05 Feb 2020; Published: 07 Mar 2020 Abstract Bycatch and discards are common and pernicious problems faced by all fisheries globally. It is recognized as unavoidable in any kind of fishing but the quantity varies according to the gear operated. In tropical countries like India, bycatch issue is more complex due to the multi-species and multi-gear nature of the fisheries. Among the different fishing gears, trawling accounts for a higher rate of bycatch, due to comparatively low selectivity of the gear. A study was conducted during June 2018 - Dec 2019 in the Mudasalodai fish landing centre, southeast coast of India. During the study period six sp. of flat fishes collected and identified taxonomically. Keywords: Flat fish, tongue fish, sole fish, bycatch, fish landing, waters of Parangipettai. The study was conducted for a period of diversity, taxonomy one and half year (June 2018 - Dec 2019), no sampling was done in the month of May, due to the fishing holiday in the coast of Introduction Tamil Nadu. The collected flat fishes were kept in ice boxes and Fish forms an important source of food and is man’s important transferred to the laboratory and washed in tap water.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

  • Food and Feeding Habits of Malabar Sole Cynoglossus Macrostomus Norman
    J. mar. biol. Ass. India, 2000, 42 (1&2) : 124 - 134 Food and Feeding habits of Malabar sole Cynoglossus macrostomus Norman A. A. Jayaprakash Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Kochi - 682 014 Abstract The food and feeding habits of Malabar sole Cynoglossus macrostomus Norman occurring along the coastal seas off Kerala were studied both qualitatively and quantitatively during 1994-96. The samples for the study were collected from three widely located centres like Cochin, Ambalapuzha and Neendakara. The fish mainly adapted to a bottom habitat feeds on polychaetes and detritus, amphipods, copepods, small molluscs and foraminifera. Active feed- ing was found immediately after spawining during October - November and February March. There was not much difference in the forage items noticed at different centres. Since the detritus is an important food component followed by other macrobenthos the fish can safely be placed between trophic level I and 11.

The samples were collected with bongo nets and a Multi Plankton Sampler (MPS), both in summer and winter 2002. A total of 352 flatfishes larvae were collected in summer and 343 in winter, representing three families and a total of 13 taxa: Paralichthyidae ( Citharichthys cornutus, C. spilopterus, Citharichthys sp ., Cyclopsetta chittendeni, Syacium spp ., Etropus spp . and Paralichthys spp .), Bothidae ( Bothus ocellatus and Monolene antillarum ) and Cynoglossidae ( Symphurus trewavasae, S. jenynsi, S. plagusia and S. ginsburgi ). The most abundant taxa were Etropus spp ., Syacium spp . and Bothus ocellatus . Etropus spp . occurred mainly as far out as the 200 m isobath and Syacium spp . from 100 m. B. ocellatus was present mainly in the oceanic zone between Ubatuba and Rio de Janeiro as from the 200 m isobath. The greatest average densities of these species occurred in the strata from 0 to 20 m depth in summer and between 20 and 40 m in winter. RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a composição, abundância, densidade, distribuição horizontal e vertical das larvas de Pleuronectiformes ao longo da plataforma continental Sudeste brasileira.

CALIFORNIA MARINE FISH LANDINGS FOR 1972 LEO PINKAS Marine Resources Region 1.1. INTRODUCTION The protection, propagation, and wise utilization of California's living marine resources (established as common property by statute, Section 1600, Fish and Game Code) is dependent upon the welding of biological, environment- al, economic, and sociological factors. Fundamental to each of these factors, as well as the entire management pro- cess, are harvest records. The California Department of Fish and Game began gathering commercial fisheries land- ing data in 1916. Commercial fish catches were first published in 1929 for the years 1926 and 1927. This report, the 32nd in the landing series, is for the calendar year 1972. It summarizes commercial fishing activities in marine as well as fresh waters and includes the catches of the sportfishing partyboat fleet. Preliminary landing data are published annually in the circular series which also enumerates certain fishery products produced from the catch.

    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE, 47(2): 464-515,1990 EASTERN ATLANTIC TONGUEFISHES (SYMPHURUS: CYNOGLOSSIDAE, PLEURONECTIFORMES), WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF TWO NEW SPECIES Thomas A. Munroe ABSTRACT Six species of symphurine tonguefishes, including two previously undescribed, from the Mediterranean Sea and eastern Atlantic Ocean (including the Azores, Madeira, Ascension, and St. Helena) are described and illustrated. A key to the species is provided. Symphurus vanmel/eae. a rarely captured and poorly-known bathyal species (361-944 m), previously thought to be conspecific with S. ligulatus. is now considered distinct. The species is known from 65 specimens collected off the continental shelf and upper continental slope of tropical West Africa (14°N-12"8). Symphurus vanmel/eae is unique among eastern Atlantic tongue- fishes in its combination of twelve caudal-fin rays, ten abdominal vertebrae, black peritoneum, and 1-2-2-2-1 pattern of interdigitation (ID pattern) of dorsal pterygiophores and neural spines. Two other deep-sea species, S. ligulatus (205-1,024 m) and S. nigrescens (47-1,400 m, usually 90-350 m), have sympatric but mostly allotopic distributions in the Mediterranean Sea and adjacent portions of the eastern Atlantic Ocean. Symphurus ligulatus is the only eastern Atlantic (Mediterranean -18°N) species possessing 14 caudal-fin rays, black perito- neum and a 1-2-2-2-2 ID pattern. Symphurus nigrescens, a widespread species (Bay of Biscay, Azores, throughout the Mediterranean, to ca. 7"8), is distinguished from all other eastern Atlantic species by the combination of 12 caudal-fin rays, 1-3-2 ID pattern, black peritoneum, and lack of small scales on the blind-side dorsal- and anal-fin rays.
