From Fuller and Neilson (2018): “Failed at both locations in Florida. No additional specimens have been reported or collected.” This species is in trade in the United States. From Arizona Aquatic Gardens (2018): “Pink Kissing Gourami Fish […] $8.99 Out of stock” Means of Introductions in the United States From Fuller and Neilson (2018): “The introduction resulted from either an aquarium release or a fish-farm escape.” Remarks This species’ name is spelled “Helostoma temminkii” according to ITIS (2018), but the correct spelling according to Fricke et al. (2018) is “Helostoma temminckii”. The misspelling occurs often enough that it was also used when researching in preparation of this report. From Fricke et al.

Simple Summary: Paradise fish (Macropodus opercularis) has been a favored subject of behavioral research during the last decades of the 20th century. Lately, however, with a massively expanding genetic toolkit and a well annotated, fully sequenced genome, zebrafish (Danio rerio) became a central model of recent behavioral research. But, as the zebrafish behavioral repertoire is less complex than that of the paradise fish, the focus on zebrafish is a compromise. With the advent of novel methodologies, we think it is time to bring back paradise fish and develop it into a modern model of Citation: Rácz, A.; Adorján, G.; behavioral and evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) studies. The first step is to define the Fodor, E.; Sellyei, B.; Tolba, M.; housing and husbandry conditions that can make a paradise fish a relevant and trustworthy model. -

This species was previously recorded from the same area over 15 years ago, but was considered extirpated. The rediscovery of a reproducing population of this species highlights the dearth of information available regarding the dozens of non-native fishes in Florida, as well as the need for additional research and monitoring. Key words: canal; croaking gourami; cypress swamp; Florida; Loxahatchee; Osphronemidae; Trichopsis vittata was previously considered extirpated (Shafland Introduction et al. 2008a, b), but is now known to be reproducing in a localised area. Dozens of non-native fishes have been introduced into Florida’s inland waterways, via accidental escape, pet releases, or intentional introduction -
Status of Fish Species Diversity in Ghaghat River in Northern Bangladesh M

Mostakim ISSN 1025-482X (Print)95 2521-5477 (Online) STATUS OF FISH SPECIES DIVERSITY IN GHAGHAT RIVER IN NORTHERN BANGLADESH M. R. Islam1*, M. Das1, M. N. Mondal2 and G. M. Mostakim3 Abstract Fish species diversity and it’s conservation status of Ghaghat river in northern region of Bangladesh was investigated by field sampling using a taxonomic guide, FishBase data and International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) conservation index. The study revealed that a total of 55 species of fishes belonging to 45 genera, 22 families and 9 orders were found in the river. Among the identified fish orders, Cypriniformes was the highest diverse group with 34% species abundance followed by Siluriformes and Perciformes with 24% each. On the other hand, fishes under the orders Beloniformes, Decapoda, and Tetradontiformes were the least abundant (2%). Fish species diversity was found prominent during the monsoon. Based on IUCN conservation index 6(11%), 10(18%) and 7(13%) species in Ghaghat river were identified as critically endangered, endangered and vulnerable respectively. A total 14 types of fishing gear under 8 major groups were found to operate in the studied river, which included some banned gears like gill net and seine net. An effective conservation strategy needs to be developed to stop indiscriminate fishing and to conserve the fish biodiversity in Ghaghat river. Keywords: Fish, biodiversity, ghaghat river, conservation. Introduction barrages, pollution, using of banned fishing gears fish biodiversity is declining (Rahman Bangladesh is blessed with a large number et al., 2016). -
Behavior and Phylogeny of Fishes of the Genus Colisa and the Family Belontiidae
BEHAVIOR AND PHYLOGENY OF FISHES OF THE GENUS COLISA AND THE FAMILY BELONTIIDAE by RUDOLPH J. MILLER') and AMBROSE JEARLD2) (Department of Zoology, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma, U.S.A.) (With2 Figures) (Acc.25-VI-1982) Introduction In an earlier paper on the behavior and phylogeny of trichogasterine fishes (MILLER & RoBISON, 1974) we presented arguments supporting the use of behavioral characteristics in assessing phylogenetic relation- ships among animals. Though we agreed with ATZ (1970) that care must be taken in establishing "homologies of behavior", we concluded that behaviortaxonomy studies often prove useful at the family or genus group level (MAYR, 1958; CULLEN, 1959; ALEXANDER, 1962; WICKLER, 1967; HINDE, 1970). We were able to show that the four species in the genus Trichogaster fall rather easily into two groups, based on numerous trench- ant behavioral characteristics. We also have been studying the behavior of the four species currently recognized in the genus Colisa (RESER, 1969; JANZOw, 1971; JEARLD, 1975). The purpose of this paper is to describe the reproductive behaviors of the Colisa spp., examine this information for insights on phylogenetic relationships of the group, and integrate this data with the earlier material on Trichogaster. Since LIEM (1963) placed both genera at the peak of adaptive radiation in the family Belontiidae, such a comparison may be of some value in assessing strengths and weaknesses of the comparative behavior technique. The Anabantoidei are a group of over 50 species of perciform fishes in- habiting tropical and subtropical regions of Southeast Asia, India, and Central Africa. The most recent revision of the group was done by LIEM (1963) who ordered the 15 genera into four families on the basis of 1) We are grateful to Drs H. -

Abstract Mastacembelus armatus which is popularly known as tire-track spiny eel or zig-zag eel is a common fish species of Indian sub-continent. It is a popular table fish due to delicious taste and high nutritional value. In Bangladesh, its demand is even higher than that of the carps. It also has good popularity as an aquarium fish and recently has been reported to be exported as indigenous ornamental fish from India to other countries. Information so far available on its food, feeding habit and reproductive biology is in a scattered manner and till date no such consolidated report on these aspects is available. -

Small ornamental species are mostly preferable in aquarium industry. BK Mahapatra Gourami is one of the most valuable and popular in small ornamental fish world. In India presently 8 ICAR-Central Institute of indigenous Gourami species are very common and highly demanding. Ctenops nobilis is one of the Fisheries Education, Salt Lake highly demanding and important among the 8 indigenous Gourami species. It is the only known species City, Kolkata, India in its genus. The fish is mainly cold water species. The species is widely distributed but it is a naturally scarce species. As per IUCN Red list, 2010 status the species is assessed as Near Threatened for its J Maity Vidyasagar University, population declines in the wild. Very little data available of the fish resulting problems occur during Midnapore, West Bengal, India maintenance of the fish in aquarium. So the proper study on the fish, captive breeding and rearing procedure of the fish is very important to meet the increasing demand of the fish among aquarium hobbyist.
