  • Morphology and Significance of the Luminous Organs in Alepocephaloid Fishes

(Eds), Wien; 1996: download Deep-sea unter www.biologiezentrum.at and extreme shallow-water habitats: affinities and adaptations. - Biosystematics and Ecology Series 11:151-163. Morphology and significance of the luminous organs in alepocephaloid fishes Y. I. SAZONOV Abstract: Alepocephaloid fishes, or slickheads (two families, Alepocephalidae and Platytroctidae), are deep-sea fishes distributed in all three major oceans at depths of ca. 100-5000 m, usually between ca. 500 and 3000 m. Among about 150 known species, 13 alepocephalid and all (ca. 40) platytroctid species have diverse light organs: 1) postcleithral luminous gland (all platytroctids); it releases a luminescent secredon which presumably startles or blinds predators and allows the fish to escape; 2) relatively large, regulär photophores on the head and ventral parts of the body in the alepocephalid Microphotolepis and in 6 (of 14) platytroctid genera. These organs may serve for countershading and possibly for giving signals to other individuals of the same species; 3) small "simple" or "secondary" photophores covering the whole body and fins in 5 alepocephalid genera, and a few such structures in 1 platytroctid; these organs may be used for Camouflage in the glow of spontaneous bioluminescence; 4) the mental light organ in 2 alepocephalid genera from the abyssal zone (Bathyprion and Mirognathus) may be used as a Iure to attract prey. Introduction Alepocephaloid fishes, or slickheads, comprise two families of isospondyl- ous fishes (Platytroctidae and Alepocephalidae). The group is one of the most diverse among oceanic bathypelagic fishes (about 35 genera with 150 species), and these fishes play a significant role in the communities of meso- and bathypelagic animals.

RANDALL 2 ABSTRACT: The following fishes represent new records for the Hawaiian Islands: the moray eel Lycodontis javanicus (Bleeker), the frogfish Antennarius nummifer (Cuvier), the jack Carangoides ferdau (Forssk::U), the grouper Cromileptes altivelis (Cuvier) (probably an aquarium release), the chubs Kyphosus cinerascens (Forsskal) and K. vaigiensis (Quoy and Gaimard), the armorhead Pentaceros richardsoni Smith, the goatfish Upeneus vittatus (Forsskal) (a probable unintentional introduction by the Division of Fish and Game, State of Hawaii), the wrasse Halichoeres marginatus Ruppell,' the gobies Nemateleotris magnifica Fowler and Discordipinna griessingeri Hoese and Fourmanoir, the angelfish Centropyge multicolor Randall and Wass, the surgeonfish Acanthurus lineatus (Linnaeus), the oceanic cutlassfish Assurger anzac (Alexander), and the driftfish Hyperoglyphe japonica (Doderlein). In addition, the snapper Pristipomoides auricilla (Jordan, Evermann, and Tanaka) and the wrasse Thalassoma quinquevittatum (Lay and Bennett), both overlooked in recent compilations, are shown to be valid species for the Hawaiian region. Following Parin (1967), the needlefish Tylosurus appendicu­ latus (Klunzinger), which has a ventral bladelike bony projection from the end of the lower jaw, is regarded as a morphological variant of T. acus (Lacepede).

    ~ibieuicanovittresAuseiim PUBLISHEDI BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CENTRAL PARK WEST AT 79TH STREET, NEW YORK, N. Y. I0024 NUMBER 2473 NOVEMBER 23, I97I Notes on the Structure and Relationships of the Alepocephaloid Fishes BY P. HUMPHRY GREENWOOD1 AND DONN ERIC ROSEN2 ABSTRACT The alepocephaloid fishes, which have had a long, uncertain taxonomic history, are compared with members of the Argentinoidei. The two groups share a dis- tinctive pharyngobranchial structure not known to occur in any other major group of fishes. Study of the caudal skeleton of alepocephaloids and argentinoids reveals additional trenchant similarities between these two groups. Other ana- tomical information is consistent with the hypothesis that alepocephaloids and argentinoids form a monophyletic assemblage. The two groups are included as two superfamilies, the Alepocephaloidea and Argentinoidea, of the suborder Argentinoidei. Suggested reartangements of members of the Argentinoidea also are proposed. INTRODUCTION Until recently the alepocephaloid fishes were uncertainly classified either with the clupeoid or salmonoid fishes. Gosline (1969) reviewed the group and implied a relationship of the alepocephaloids with the osmeroid fishes and concluded that the alepocephaloids are ". least unlike the osmeroids among modern fishes." The alepocephaloids are thus left as much incertae sedis as they were before. Gosline's review did not 1 Senior Principal Scientific Officer, Department of Zoology, British Museum (Natural History). 2 Chairman and Curator, Department of Ichthyology, the American Museum of Natural History. 2 AMERICAN MUSEUM NOVITATES NO. 2473 include any comparisons of alepocephaloids with the argentinoid fishes. The investigation reported here is an attempt to fill that gap.

In this extreme environment, every photon Deep-sea teleost counts and may make the difference between life and death for its inhabitants. Two sources of light are present Dim-light vision in the deep-sea; downwelling light, that becomes dimmer and spectrally narrower with increasing depth until Ocular adaptation completely disappearing at around 1000 m, and bioluminescence, the light emitted by animals themselves. Retina Despite these relatively dark and inhospitable conditions, many teleost fish have made the deep-sea their home, Opsin relying heavily on vision to survive. Their visual systems have had to adapt, sometimes in astonishing and Bioluminescence bizarre ways. This review examines some aspects of the visual system of deep-sea teleosts and highlights the exceptional diversity in both optical and retinal specialisations. We also reveal how widespread several of these adaptations are across the deep-sea teleost phylogeny. Finally, the significance of some recent findings as well as the surprising diversity in visual adaptations is discussed. 1.

TAXONOMY AND DISTRIBUTION OF ROULEINA ATTRITA AND ROULEINA MADERENSIS (PISCES: ALEPOCEPHALIDAE)1 DOUGLAS F. MARKLE2 ABSTRACT Three Atlantic species ofXenodermichthys and Rouleina are recognized: X. copei, R. attrita, and R. maderensis. Bathytroctes mollis and B. aequatoris are considered junior synonyms of R. attrita. Anomalopterus megalops is considered incerta sedis. Diagnostic characters for R. attrita are: no photophores, convoluted testes, 43-48 lateral line scales, 43-46 preural vertebrae, papillae on body near lateral line, and maturation at a size around 250-300 rnm standard length. Diagnostic characters for R. maderensis are: photophores present, lobate testes, 50-56 lateral line scales, 47-50 preural vertebrae, papillae usually peripheral to photophores on fins and fin bases, and maturation at a size around 200-250 mm standard length. The two species are sharply segregated by depth: 91% ofall R.
