A checklist of the species is given, with preliminary descriptions of their assemblage structure. In terms of the number of species per family, Gobiidae was the most diverse (28 species), followed by Leiognathidae (11 species) and Engraulidae (10 species). In terms of individual numbers, Engraulidae, Leiognathidae and Ambassidae were the most dominant, whereby the 20 most abundant species comprised 88.5% of the total number of individuals collected. The fish assemblage structure was compared with published accounts of other tropical Indo-West Pacific mangrove estuaries, and found to be similar to those of tropical Australia. Although a grater number of species were recorded from Sikao Creek than in comparable studies in other geographic regions, all of the studies were similar in that they have relatively few species that are clearly dominant in abundance.

Similarities in assem- blage structure with other Indo-West Pacific man- grove estuaries are also discussed. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study site, Sikao Creek estuary (7∞32¢N, 99∞20¢E), which is a medium-sized (main channel length approximately 5 km) mangrove estuary, is located in Trang Province on the west coast of Thai- land (Fig. 1). The forest, which is dominated by Rhizophora apiculata, has been designated as a protected area and is relatively undisturbed. Inter- tidal mudflats with mangrove fringes and sandy- mud beaches lacking mangroves, but neither seagrass beds nor coral reefs, occur in the immedi- ate vicinity of the creek mouth. The estuary is sub- jected to semidiurnal tides with a tidal range of 1.0–2.5 m. Sampling was conducted approximately three times a year: March (dry season), August/ September (middle of wet season) and Novem- ber/December (end of wet season) at six fixed stations (stations 1–6) located from the mouth to the upper reaches of the creek (Fig. 1). Salinities at sampling varied from 10 (wet season) to 30 (dry season) in the upper reaches of the creek, but remained relatively stable at the creek mouth (28–32). Water temperatures varied from 26∞C to 34∞C, often being higher at the creek mouth than in the creek reaches, but no seasonal trends were apparent. Fishes were collected using a large and small seine, and a bag net. Size, sampling session and total number of operations for each net are shown in Table 1. The small seine net collected mainly Fig. 1 Map of Sikao Creek showing sampling sites. small-sized fishes, and the large seine net collected larger, more mobile fishes.

The medaka phylogenetic tree indicates that Daisy’s medaka belongs to the celebensis species group. The salinity tolerance of Daisy’s medaka was assessed. Our findings revealed that 20‰ (hypertonic) saltwater (SW) was lethal to Daisy’s medaka. However, 62.5% of individuals survived 10‰ (isotonic) SW with pre-acclimation to 5‰ SW for one week. This transfer regime, “Experimental (Exp.) 10‰ SW”, was used in the following experiments. After 10‰ SW-transfer, the plasma osmolality of Daisy’s medaka significantly increased. The protein abun- dance and distribution of branchial Na+, K+-ATPase (NKA) and Na+, K+, 2Cl– cotransporter 1 (NKCC1) were also examined after transfer to 10‰ SW for one week. Gill NKA activity increased significantly after transfer to 10‰ SW. Meanwhile, elevation of gill NKA α-subunit protein- abundance was found in the 10‰ SW-acclimated fish. In gill cross-sections, more and larger NKA- immunoreactive (NKA-IR) cells were observed in the Exp.

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. KEY WORDS: Oryzias, Revision, Morphological difference, Cluster analysis four species are known from Thailand, Laos, INTRODUCTION Myanmar, and Vietnam, but eleven species are found from Indonesia and one species in Ricefish of the genus Oryzias belong to Japan (Magtoon, 1986; Roberts, 1998; the family Adrianichthyidae and are widely Kotellat 2001a, b; Parenti and Soeroto, 2004; distributed in South, East and Southeast Asia Parenti, 2008). and southwards to Sulawesi and the Timor Recently, there have been several studies islands (Yamamoto, 1975; Labhart, 1978; published on various aspects of Oryzias Uwa and Parenti, 1988; Chen et al., 1989; biology, for instance on the comparative Uwa, 1991a; Roberts, 1989, 1998).

Ikan ini juga memiliki potensi sebagai ikan hias untuk akuaskap. Budidaya ikan O. javanicus belum populer sehingga pengadaan ikan ini mengandalkan hasil tangkapan alam. Ikan liar hasil tangkapan alam membutuhkan adaptasi di dalam wadah terkontrol. Salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi performa adaptasi awal yaitu kepadatan ikan selama pengangkutan sistem tertutup. Kondisi yang terlalu padat berdampak pada performa adaptasi ikan yang kurang baik. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji performa adaptasi O. javanicus selama pemeliharaan pascapengangkutan. Performa berkaitan dengan sintasan, tingkah laku, dan jumlah telur selama 15 hari pemeliharaan. Kepadatan ikan yaitu 24 ekor/L (perlakuan A) dan 40 ekor/L (perlakuan B) yang dikemas selama 6 jam.

Benayahu Department of Zoology, George S. Wise Faculty of Life Sciences, Tel Aviv University, Ramat Aviv, Tel Aviv 69978, Israel Email: [email protected] (Corresponding author) L. M. Chou Department of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Science, National University of Singapore, 14 Science Drive 4, Singapore 117543 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. – Octocorallia (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) from Singapore were collected and identifi ed in a survey conducted in 1999. Colonies collected previously, between 1993 and 1997, were also studied. The entire collection of ~170 specimens yielded 25 species of the families Helioporidae, Alcyoniidae, Paraclcyoniidae, Xeniidae and Briareidae. Their distribution is limited to six m depth, due to high sediment levels and limited light penetration. The collection also yielded Cladiella hartogi, a new species (family Alcyonacea), which is described. All the other species are new zoogeographical records for Singapore. A comparison of species composition of octocorals collected in Singapore between 1993 and 1977 and those collected in 1999 revealed that out of the total number of species, 12 were found in both periods, whereas seven species, which had been collected during the earlier years, were no longer recorded in 1999. Notably, however, six species that are rare on Singapore reefs were recorded only in the 1999 survey and not in the earlier ones. It is not yet clear whether these differences in species composition indeed imply changes over time in the octocoral fauna, or may refl ect a sampling bias.

As the number of ZnO NPs containing products grows, and the release of these products Citation: Amin, N.; Zulkifli, S.Z.; into the environment—particularly to the aquatic environment—has increased, several questions Azmai, M.N.A.; Ismail, A. Toxicity of about their toxic effects on aquatic organisms have arisen. In this study, we explore the embryotoxicity Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles on the of ZnO NPs by using the newly introduced model organism Oryzias javanicus (Javanese medaka). Embryo of Javanese Medaka (Oryzias We found that the 96 h LC50 of ZnO NPs on the embryo of Javanese medaka were 0.643 mg/L, javanicus Bleeker, 1854): A 1.333 mg/L, and 2.370 mg/L in ultra-pure, deionized, and dechlorinated tap water.
