Family names are particularly important because they are among the most widely used of all technical animal names. Apart from using the correct family-group name according to the Code, it is also important to use one unique universal name (with a fixed spelling) to avoid confusion. We have compiled a list of family- group names for Recent fishes, applied the rules of the Code and, if possible, tried to conserve the names in prevailing recent practice. We list all of the family-group names found to date for Recent fishes (N=2625), together with their author(s) and year of publication. This list can be used in assigning the correct family-group name to a genus or a group of genera. With this publication we contribute to the usage of correct, universal family-group names in the classification of, and for communication about, Recent fishes. Key words: family names, subfamily names, tribal names, ICZN, Zoological Code, nomenclature, prevailing spelling, prevailing recent practice Introduction The goal of this publication is to contribute to the use of correct family-group names in Recent fishes. Confusion about names, inconsistent use, and incorrect spellings create problems in communication and in searches for information. The zoological family-group names include superfamily (suffix –oidea), family (suffix –idae), subfamily (suffix –inae), tribe (suffix –ini), and subtribe (suffix –ina). They are regulated by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (hereafter referred to as the Code) as published by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). The 4th edition of the Code (in effect on 1 January 2000) provided a set of rules for the naming of animals and the resolution of nomenclatural problems. Consistency in the use of valid family-group names is very important because they are among the most widely used of all technical names for fishes. They are used by fish systematists and frequently by scientists in related fields of biology, by naturalists, fishermen and aquarium hobbyists (van der Laan 2014). Like every scientific name, a family-group name serves as a tool for the storage and retrieval of information attached to the taxon. Family-group names also are important in that they often are used to form English vernacular names (and adjectives) as follows: · Tribes (–ini): by changing the suffix to singular in or plural ins; for example, Characini to characin fishes or characins · Subfamilies (–inae): by changing the suffix to singular ine or plural ines; for example, Characinae to characine fishes or characines · Families (–idae): by changing the suffix to singular id or plural ids; for example, Characidae to characid fishes or characids · Superfamilies (–oidea): by changing the suffix to singular ide or plural ides; for example, Characoidea to characide fishes or characides. As a result, an error in spelling of a family-group name extends to errors in vernacular names. Furthermore, if the names of higher-ranked taxa, specifically ordinal names (superorders, orders or suborders), are based on a FAMILY-GROUP NAMES OF RECENT FISHES Zootaxa 3882 (1) © 2014 Magnolia Press · 3 Amphibichthyidae Hogg 1841:362 [ref. 2183] (family) Amphibichthys [senior objective synonym of Lepidosirenidi Bonaparte 1841, but not used as valid after 1899] Lepidosirenidi Bonaparte 1841:introduzione [10] [ref. 515] (family) Lepidosiren [junior objective synonym of Amphibichthyidae Hogg 1841, but Lepidosirenidae in prevailing recent practice; Lepidosirenidae used as valid by: Jordan 1923 [ref. 2421], Schultz with Stern 1948 [ref. 31938], Bertin & Arambourg 1958, Lagler, Bardach & Miller 1962, McAllister 1968 [ref. 26854], Lindberg 1971 [ref. 27211], Nelson 1976 [ref. 32838], Shiino 1976, Lagler, Bardach, Miller & May Passino 1977, Nelson 1984 [ref. 13596], Sterba 1990, Robins et al. 1991b [ref. 14238], Nelson 1994 [ref. 26204], Springer & Raasch 1995:104 [ref. 25656], Eschmeyer 1998 [ref. 23416], Reis et al. 2003 [ref. 27061], Nelson 2006 [ref. 32486], Buckup, Menezes & Ghazzi 2007] ?

  • Phylogenetic Relationships of Selected Genera of Lutjanidae Inferred from Mitochondrial Regions, with a Note on the Taxonomic Status of Pinjalo Pinjalo

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Phylogenetic relationships of 43 species in 11 genera, representing four subfamilies of the family Lutjanidae and two genera of the family Caesionidae, were inferred using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI). Further assessment using the mtDNA control region (CR) was carried out to infer the relationship between the Indian and western Pacific types of Lutjanus russellii collected from the coast of Peninsular Malaysia. A total of 11 and 12 species were sequenced for COI and CR genes, respectively. Clade formation reflects, to some extent, the species groupings based on morphological characteristics and their biogeography. The close phylogenetic relationship between Pinjalo pinjalo and the Lutjanus red snappers (Lutjanus malabaricus and Lutjanus sebae) warrants a taxonomic revision of the former as the two genera are currently separated based on non-exclusive morphological characters. A sequence divergence of 4.2% between the Indian and western Pacific types of L.

    A REVIEW OF THE SPARID^ AND RELATED FAMILIES OF PERCH-LIKE FISHES FOUND IN THE WATERS OF JAPAN. By David Starr Jordan and William Francis Thompson, Of Stanford University, California. In the present paper is given a review of the species of fishes belonging to those percomorphoiis famihes alUed to the Sparoid fishes, or fishes related to the tai or porgy of the waters of Japan, which have not been hitherto discussed in these pages by the senior author and his associates. The families of Kuldiidse, Priacanthidse, Theraponidse, Banjosidae, Hsemulidae, Sparidse, Kyphosidse, and Ery- thrichthyidse are thus included. The paper is based on material collected in Japan in 1900 by Pro- fessors Jordan and Snyder and now divided between the United States National Museum and the museum of Stanford University. Most of the cuts are from drawings by Mr. Sekko Shimada. The families here named are adopted provisionally only. The dis- tinctions between Sparidse, Haemulidse, Lutianidae, and their relatives are of doubtful value, while at present no definite boundaries can be assigned to the Serranidse. L Family KUHLIID.^. Body oblong, strongly compressed; scales large, cihated. Lateral line complete, the tubes straight and occupying the half or more of the exposed surface of the scale. Mouth rather large, protractile; maxillary exposed, without supplemental bone; teeth in jaws in villi- form bands; teeth on vomer, palatines, entopterygoids, and ecto- pterygoids; tongue smooth; head partly naked; preorbital and pre- opercle denticulate; opercle with 2 spines. Gill membranes separate; 6 branchiostegals; pseudobranchise large; gill-rakers long and slender. Dorsal fms connected at the base, with X, 9 to 13 rays, the spinous portion longer than the soft.

  • Final EIS, Donlin Gold Project
    Donlin Gold Project Chapter 3: Environmental Analysis Final Environmental Impact Statement 3.13 Fish and Aquatic Resources 3.13 FISH AND AQUATIC RESOURCES SYNOPSIS This section describes conditions and evaluates potential impacts to fish and aquatic resources from the proposed action and alternatives. Each alternative is examined by major project component (Mine Site; Transportation Corridor; and Pipeline) by project phase (Construction, Operations, and Closure). An Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) Assessment is provided in Appendix Q. EXISTING CONDITION SUMMARY Fish and aquatic resources are of central importance to the livelihood of residents of the proposed project area. While other chapter sections (Section 3.5, Surface Water Hydrology, Section 3.7, Water Quality, and Section 3.21, Subsistence) discuss topics associated with fish and aquatic resources, this section characterizes aquatic habitat and the diversity, abundance, and distribution of fish in the Kuskokwim River and the drainages affected by the proposed project. The section also describes the regulatory framework associated with the management and protection of area fisheries and aquatic habitats and presents an analysis of expected consequences of the proposed project and alternatives. Both federal and state laws protect fish and aquatic resources that would be affected by components of the proposed project. Key laws and regulations include: the Clean Water Act (CWA), including Sections 402 and 404, which govern discharges to waters of the U.S.; the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson- Stevens Act), which governs protection of EFH; and state regulation of mining and water use and discharge permits as well as fish habitat protection requirements. The Kuskokwim River and many of its tributaries, including tributaries in the Crooked Creek drainage, are designated as EFH for Pacific salmon.
