  • Freshwater Fish Survey of Homadola-Nakiyadeniya Estates, Sri Lanka
    FRESHWATER FISH SURVEY OF HOMADOLA-NAKIYADENIYA ESTATES, SRI LANKA. Prepared by Hiranya Sudasinghe BSc. (Hons) Zoology, M.Phil. reading (University of Peradeniya) INTRODUCTION The diversity of freshwater fishes in Sri Lanka is remarkably high, with a total of 93 indigenous fishes being recorded from inland waters, out of which 53 are considered to be endemic (MOE, 2012; Batuwita et al., 2013). Out of these, 21 are listed as Critically Endangered, 19 as Endangered and five as Vulnerable in the National Red List (MOE, 2012). In addition, several new species of freshwater fishes have been discovered in the recent past which have not yet been evaluated for Red Listing (Batuwita et al., 2017; Sudasinghe 2017; Sudasinghe & Meegaskumbura, 2016; Sudasinghe et al., 2016). Out of the 22 families that represent the Sri Lankan freshwater ichthyofauna, the family Cyprinidae dominates, representing about 50% of the species, followed by the families Gobiidae, Channidae and Bagridae, which represent seven, five and four species, respectively. The remainder of the other families are each represented in Sri Lanka by three species or less. Four major ichthyological zones, viz. Southwestern zone, Mahaweli zone, Dry zone and the Transition zone were identified by Senanayake and Moyle (1982) based on the distribution and the endemism of the fish. The Southwestern zone shows the greatest diversity, followed by the Mahaweli zone, with the least diversity observed in the Dry zone. About 60% of the freshwater fishes occur both in the dry and the wet zones of the island while the rest are more or less restricted to the wet zone. Of the endemic fishes, more than 60% are restricted to the wet zone of the island while about 30% occur in both the dry and the wet zones.

Collette National Marine Fisheries Service Systematics Laboratory National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC 20560–0153, U.S.A. email: [email protected] Needlefishes are a relatively small family of beloniform fishes (Rosen and Parenti 1981 [ref. 5538], Collette et al. 1984 [ref. 11422]) that differ from other members of the order in having both the upper and the lower jaws extended into long beaks filled with sharp teeth (except in the neotenic Belonion), the third pair of upper pharyngeal bones separate, scales on the body relatively small, and no finlets following the dorsal and anal fins. The nostrils lie in a pit anterior to the eyes. There are no spines in the fins. The dorsal fin, with 11–43 rays, and anal fin, with 12–39 rays, are posterior in position; the pelvic fins, with 6 soft rays, are located in an abdominal position; and the pectoral fins are short, with 5–15 rays. The lateral line runs down from the pectoral fin origin and then along the ventral margin of the body. The scales are small, cycloid, and easily detached. Precaudal vertebrae number 33–65, caudal vertebrae 19–41, and total verte- brae 52–97. Some freshwater needlefishes reach only 6 or 7 cm (2.5 or 2.75 in) in total length while some marine species may attain 2 m (6.5 ft).

  • Fish Fauna of North East India with Special Reference to Endemic and Threatened Species
    Rec. zool. Surv. India: 101 (Part 3-4) : 81-99,2003 FISH FAUNA OF NORTH EAST INDIA WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ENDEMIC AND THREATENED SPECIES NmEDITA SEN Eastern Regional Station, Zoological Survey of India, Shillong-793 003 INTRODUCTION North Easr India with it's sister states have unique topography, varied watershed pattern and physiography. The area is enriched with diversified fish fauna. A perusal of literature reveals that the area is blessed with 291 species under I 19 genera, 38 families and 12 orders (Hora, 1921 a, 1921b, 1936; Jayaram 1963, 1999; Malhotra and Suri, 1969; Sen, 1977, 1995, 1999a, 1999b; Bannan, 1984, 1992, 1994; Sen, 1985; S~gh & Singh, 1985; Vishwanath & Singh, 1986; Datta, Bannan & Jayaram, 1987; Talwar & Jhingran, 1991; Bhagowati & Biswas 1992; Vishwanath, 1993; Sen & Biswas, 1994; Nath & Dey, 1-997;· Keishing & Vishwanath, 1998, 1999; Kumar & Singh, 1998; Vishwanath et al. 1998; Vi &hwanath & Kosygin, 1999, 2000a, 2000b, 2001; Arunkumar, 2000a, 2000b; Arunkumar & Singh, 2000; Menon et al. 2000). The recorded and reported species along with their distribution in different States of N. E. India, status, type locality and endemicity have been shown in Table 1. Controversy is there regarding total number of species occurring in North East India. Regarding endemic species also differences of opinion persist. Sen (1985) identified 48 species to be endemic to Assam and neighbouring North Eastern States. Sarkar and Ponniah (2000) reported 66 species endemic to this region. Ghosh and Lipton (1982) reported 33 species as restricted in their distribution to this region. The present paper is worked out to get a total picture of the fish species recorded and reported so far from this region, as well as the endemic and threatened species occurring in N.

    Zoological Research 35 (1): 51−58 DOI:10.11813/j.issn.0254-5853.2014.1.051 Four new records of fish species (Cypriniformes: Nemacheilidae, Balitoridae; Characiformes: Prochilodontidae) and corrections of two misidentified fish species (Tetraodontiformes: Tetraodontidae; Beloniformes: Belonidae) in Yunnan, China Marco Endruweit* Qingshan Road 601, Qingdao, China Abstract: In this study, six fish species of five families are reported for the first time from Yunnan Province, China. The nemacheilid Schistura amplizona Kottelat, 2000 is reported from the Luosuojiang River and Nanlahe River subbasins, Mekong basin; the prochilodontid Prochilodus lineatus (Valenciennes, 1837), the balitorid Vanmanenia serrilineata Kottelat, 2000, and the tetraodontid Monotrete turgidus Kottelat, 2000, from Nanlahe River subbasin, Mekong basin; the balitorid Beaufortia daon (Mai, 1978), and the belonid Xenentodon canciloides (Bleeker, 1854), both, from Black River subbasin, Red River basin.
