Publication year: 2014 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1036/1097-8542.680400 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1036/1097-8542.680400) Content Morphology Euteleostei Bibliography Phylogeny Classification Additional Readings Clupeomorpha and Ostariophysi The most recent group of actinopterygians (rayfin fishes), first appearing in the Upper Triassic (Fig. 1). About 26,840 species are contained within the Teleostei, accounting for more than half of all living vertebrates and over 96% of all living fishes. Teleosts comprise 517 families, of which 69 are extinct, leaving 448 extant families; of these, about 43% have no fossil record.

This type of tail primitively results from an ontogenetic fusion of centra (bodies of vertebrae) and the possession of paired bracing bones located bilaterally along the dorsal region of the caudal skeleton, derived ontogenetically from the neural arches (uroneurals) of the ural (tail) centra. -

Order ANGUILLIFORMES
click for previous page 1630 Bony Fishes Order ANGUILLIFORMES ANGUILLIDAE Freshwater eels by D.G. Smith iagnostic characters: Body moderately elongate, cylindrical in front and only moderately com- Dpressed along the tail. Eye well developed, moderately small in females and immatures, markedly enlarged in mature males. Snout rounded. Mouth moderately large, gape ending near rear margin of eye; lower jaw projects beyond upper; well-developed fleshy flanges on upper and lower lips. Teeth small, granular, in narrow to broad bands on jaws and vomer. Anterior nostril tubular, near tip of snout; posterior nostril a simple opening in front of eye at about mideye level. Dorsal and anal fins continuous around tail; dorsal fin begins well behind pectoral fins, somewhat in front of or above anus; pectoral fins well developed. Small oval scales present, embedded in skin and arranged in a basket-weave pattern. Lateral line complete. Colour: varies from yellowish green to brown or black; sexually mature individuals often bicoloured, black above and white below, with a bronze or silvery sheen. well-developed scales present dorsal-fin origin lips well back projecting pectoral fins present lower jaw Habitat, biology, and fisheries: Anguillid eels spend most of their adult lives in fresh water or estuarine habitats. They are nocturnal, hiding by day and coming out at night to forage. They take almost any available food, mainly small, benthic invertebrates. They are extremely hardy and live in a wide variety of aquatic habitats. At maturity, they leave fresh water and enter the ocean to spawn. Some species migrate long distances to specific spawning areas. -

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences. -
