A New Species of Hemibrycon(Teleostei
Neotropical Ichthyology, 5(3):251-257, 2007 Copyright © 2007 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia A new species of Hemibrycon (Teleostei: Characiformes: Characidae) from the río Ucayali drainage, Sierra del Divisor, Peru Vinicius A. Bertaco*, Luiz R. Malabarba*,**, Max Hidalgo*** and Hernán Ortega*** A new characid species, Hemibrycon divisorensis, is described from the río Ucayali drainage, Loreto, Peru. The new species is distinguished from all Hemibrycon species by the presence of a wide black asymmetrical spot covering base of caudal-fin rays and extending along entire length of caudal-fin rays 9 to 12-13 (except from H. surinamensis), and a black band in the lower half of the caudal peduncle extending from the region above the last anal-fin rays to the caudal-fin base. Furthermore, it is distinguished from most species of the genus by the number of scale rows below the lateral line (4-5 vs 5-9), except H. jabonero, H. microformaa, H. orcesi, and H. surinamensis. It differs from these species by scale and fin ray counts and color pattern. The lack of a supraorbital in Hemibrycon species is discussed and confirmed. Uma nova espécie de caracídeo, Hemibrycon divisorensis, é descrita para a bacia do río Ucayali, Loreto, Peru. A nova espécie distingue-se das demais espécies de Hemibrycon pela presença de uma ampla mancha preta assimétrica na base dos raios da nadadeira caudal estendida até a extremidade dos raios 9 a 12 ou 13 (exceto de H. surinamensis), e de uma faixa preta na metade inferior do pedúnculo caudal desde a região acima dos últimos raios da nadadeira anal até a base da nadadeira caudal. -

There are indications that the strong seasonal presence (late spring to early fall) of sand tigers in this area is a relatively new phenomenon as local fishermen claim that they had never seen this species in large numbers until recently. We utilized passive acoustic telemetry to monitor seasonal residency, habitat use, site fidelity, and fine scale movements of 35 sand tigers (79 – 120 cm fork length; age 0 - 1) in PKD Bay. Sharks were tracked within PKD Bay for periods of 5 – 88 days during September – October, 2008 and June – October, 2009. All movement data are currently being analyzed to quantify spatial and temporal habitat use, however, preliminary analyses suggest that sharks display a high degree of site fidelity to several areas of PKD Bay. Outside PKD Bay, we documented broader regional movements throughout New England. Collectively, these data demonstrate the that both PKD Bay and New England coastal waters serve as nursery and essential fish habitat (EFH) for neonatal and juvenile sand tiger sharks. -
Two New Species of Knodus (Characidae: Stevardiinae) from the Upper Rio Tocantins Basin, with Evidence of Ontogenetic Meristic Changes

The new species are distinguished from other congeners by meristic and morphometric characters, such as the number of cusps in the premaxillary and dentary teeth, the number of scale series between dorsal-fin origin and lateral line, the orbital diameter and the body depth. With the two new species, the number of endemic species in the upper rio Tocantins basin upstream of the mouth of the rio Paranã, rises to 53 (89 to the confluence with rio Araguaia). The existence of a meristic character that changes through ontogeny (allomery), viz. the number of scale series between dorsal-fin origin Submitted October 2, 2020 and lateral line, was detected in some species of Knodus through a regression Accepted January 1, 2021 analysis. Additionally, this paper describes an unambiguous, more informative by Paulo Lucinda and precise new method for counting vertebrae, which will enhance the efficacy Epub 08 March, 2021 of this trait in species comparisons.

Reproductive Characteristics of Characid Fish Species (Teleostei
Reproductive characteristics of characid fish species (Teleostei... 469 Reproductive characteristics of characid fish species (Teleostei, Characiformes) and their relationship with body size and phylogeny Marco A. Azevedo Setor de Ictiologia, Museu de Ciências Naturais, Fundação Zoobotânica do Rio Grande do Sul, Rua Dr. Salvador França, 1427, 90690-000 Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil. ([email protected]) ABSTRACT. In this study, I investigated the reproductive biology of fish species from the family Characidae of the order Characiformes. I also investigated the relationship between reproductive biology and body weight and interpreted this relationship in a phylogenetic context. The results of the present study contribute to the understanding of the evolution of the reproductive strategies present in the species of this family. Most larger characid species and other characiforms exhibit a reproductive pattern that is generally characterized by a short seasonal reproductive period that lasts one to three months, between September and April. This is accompanied by total spawning, an extremely high fecundity, and, in many species, a reproductive migration. Many species with lower fecundity exhibit some form of parental care. Although reduction in body size may represent an adaptive advantage, it may also require evolutionary responses to new biological problems that arise. In terms of reproduction, smaller species have a tendency to reduce the number of oocytes that they produce. Many small characids have a reproductive pattern similar to that of larger characiforms. On the other hand they may also exhibit a range of modifications that possibly relate to the decrease in body size and the consequent reduction in fecundity. -

Dr. Sezgin GÜÇLÜAY Mehmet Ertan BAMYACI ELAZIĞ-2017 II ÖZET Doktora Tezi Bizans İmparatorluğunda Ticaret (VIII-X. Yüzyıllar) Mehmet Ertan BAMYACI Fırat Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Genel Türk Tarihi Anabilim Dalı Elazığ-2017, Sayfa: XIII+302 İnsanlık tarihi ile başlayan ticaret, tarih boyunca farklı gelişim süreçleri yaşamıştır. Hayatın devamı için gerekli olan zorunlu tüketim ürünlerinin takası (trampa) ile başlayan bu süreç, günümüze gelindiğinde küresel bir boyut kazanmış ve dünya siyasetinin temel belirleyici unsurlarından biri halini almıştır. Başlangıçtan günümüze yaşamış olduğu gelişim sürecinde ticarete katkı sunan aktörlerden birisi ise Bizans’tır. Bir çağa damgasını vurmuş bu büyük imparatorluk, uygulamış olduğu ticaret politikaları ve ticarete kazandırmış olduğu müesseselerle sadece kendi döneminde değil, kendinden sonra kurulan güçlü devletlere de örnek oluşturmuştur. Bizans’ın sahip olduğu coğrafi konum, onu doğu ve batı dünyası arasında bir kavşak yapmıştır. Özellikle de Bizans, doğunun lüks ürünlerini batıya aktarmada önemli bir aracı rol üstlenmiştir. İmparatorluğun başkenti olan Konstantinopolis, uluslararası ticaretin yürütülmüş olduğu yolların kesişme noktasındadır ve adeta bir dünya başkentidir. Ayrıca “Altın Boynuz” olarak tabir edilen doğal ve muhteşem bir limana sahip olması bu kentin ticari anlamda en büyük avantajlarından biri olmuştur. Nüfusunun en az olduğu dönemlerde dahi sayının iki yüz binin altına düşmemesi burayı ticari açıdan hep önemli kılmıştır. Kentte yoğun bir üretim yapılmasına rağmen, bu üretim kentin ihtiyaçlarını karşılama noktasında yeterli gelmemektedir. Bu sebeple başkent, imparatorluğun farklı bölgeleriyle ve dış dünyayla ithalat ağırlıklı bir ticari faaliyet sürdürmektedir. Bu noktada özellikle ipek ve baharat gibi pahalı ve lüks ürünlerin temininde dış dünyaya muhtaçtır. -
