Kners Korrespondenz. Wien, im April/Juni 2008 ©Biologiezentrum Linz/Austria, download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Abstract Within the Habsburg monarchy, due to the comprehensive re-organisation of the universities in 1849, Rudolf Kner (1810-1869) was the first person to become appointed Professor in Zoology. He was also the first person who brought scientific zoology to the University of Vienna and later became a well-known ichthyologist. The present biographical survey treats the career of the Linz- born R. Kner from his basic education to his employment in the k.k.Natural Cabinet in Vienna (1836-1841), to the professor- ship in Lemberg/Galicia (Lviv/Ukraine; 1841-1848) and finally (1849) to the Professorship in Zoology in Vienna. This curricu- lum is displayed in connection with the circumstances of Kner‘s private life and his thoughts as noted in his early diaries as well as in his correspondance. Friends and colleagues in the ”Biedermeier” period (1820-1848) are considered, as are later relations. The family‘s association with Waldegg-Oed (Lower Austria) where, after 1856, the Kners also owned their country-house, is pre- sented.

  • Cascadu, Flat-Head Or Chato
    UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Behaviour Callichthys callichthys (Flat-head Cascadu or Chato) Family: Callichthyidae (Plated Catfish) Order: Siluriformes (Catfish) Class: Actinopterygii (Ray-finned Fish) Fig. 1. Flat-head cascade, Callichthys callichthys. [“http://nas.er.usgs.gov/queries/factsheet.aspx?SpeciesID=335”, Downloaded 10th October 2011] TRAITS. Was first described by Linnaeus in 1758 and was named Silurus callichthys. They generally reach a maximum length of 20 cm and can weigh up to 80g.(Froese and Pauly, 2001) The females are generally larger and more robust as compared to the males. The Callichthys callichthys is an elongated catfish with a straight or flattened belly profile. It also has a broad flattened head and a body which is almost uniform in breath with some posterior tapering which beings after dorsal fin. (Figure 2) Its body consists of 2 rows of overlapping plates or scutes. Approximately 26 – 29 scutes seen on the upper lateral series and 25 – 28 scutes seen on the lower lateral series. The fins are rounded and the fish also has a total of 6-8 soft dorsal rays. It also has 2 pairs of maxillary barbles near its mouth and small eyes. The fish has an inferior type mouth ( Berra, 2007). The Callichthys callichthys is dark olive green in colour to a grey brown as seen in Figure 1, with the males having a blue to violet sheen on its flanks. ECOLOGY. Callichthys callichthys is a freshwater organism which is primarily riverine in habitat (Arratia, 2003). Only 2 families of catfishes are found to colonise marine habitats UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Behaviour (Arratia, 2003).

E-mail: [email protected] Received in revised form 10 March 2000; accepted 20 June 2000 Key words: cyprinid fish, rudd, Scardinius erythrophthalmus, food, diet Abstract The first data on the ecology of rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus) introduced to the Iberian peninsula are presen- ted. The habitat and diet variation of rudd were studied in Lake Banyoles (Spain), an oligotrophic karstic lake dominated by exotic fish species. Rudd were strictly littoral and the diet was based on detritus and plant material. The most important animal prey were the cladocerans Daphnia longispina and Scapholeberis rammneri, amphi- pods and several late stages of nematoceran dipterans. Rudd were more zooplanktivorous in spring and autumn and less in summer. There was also a size-dependent diet shift, from microcrustaceans to macroinvertebrates. The diet of rudd was also distinguished by the importance of plant material and various small neustonic invertebrates, particularly S. rammneri and late stages of nematocerans, showing a strong resource partitioning with other fish species. The degree of herbivory in Lake Banyoles was lower than usual. Introduction or early 20th and since the 1980s are expanding their distribution (Burkhead & Williams, 1991), though Rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus) are medium- their interactions with native species remain unknown sized cyprinid fish native to freshwaters of Europe and (Easton et al., 1993).

Rua Cristóvão Colombo, 2265, CEP 15054-000, São José do Rio Preto, SP, Brazil. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new species of Moenkhausia is described from the rio Amazonas and rio Orinoco basins. The new species can be distinguished from congeners mainly by the combination of a conspicuous, relatively small and circular humeral spot, a black spot on the upper caudal-fin lobe, lower caudal-fin lobe without spot or a faint one, and middle caudal-fin rays hyaline or with dark tips. Mature males have a unique combination of two large-sized bony hooks on the anal-fin rays and tiny spines on the distal portion of all fins, which distinguishes the new species from any other species of Characidae. Key words: Systematics, Moenkhausia lepidura species-group, bony hooks Resumo Uma nova espécie de Moenkhausia é descrita das bacias dos rios Amazonas e Orenoco.

  • Phylogenetic Relationships of the South American Doradoidea (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes)
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 12(3): 451-564, 2014 Copyright © 2014 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20120027 Phylogenetic relationships of the South American Doradoidea (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes) José L. O. Birindelli A phylogenetic analysis based on 311 morphological characters is presented for most species of the Doradidae, all genera of the Auchenipteridae, and representatives of 16 other catfish families. The hypothesis that was derived from the six most parsimonious trees support the monophyly of the South American Doradoidea (Doradidae plus Auchenipteridae), as well as the monophyly of the clade Doradoidea plus the African Mochokidae. In addition, the clade with Sisoroidea plus Aspredinidae was considered sister to Doradoidea plus Mochokidae. Within the Auchenipteridae, the results support the monophyly of the Centromochlinae and Auchenipterinae. The latter is composed of Tocantinsia, and four monophyletic units, two small with Asterophysus and Liosomadoras, and Pseudotatia and Pseudauchenipterus, respectively, and two large ones with the remaining genera. Within the Doradidae, parsimony analysis recovered Wertheimeria as sister to Kalyptodoras, composing a clade sister to all remaining doradids, which include Franciscodoras and two monophyletic groups: Astrodoradinae (plus Acanthodoras and Agamyxis) and Doradinae (new arrangement). Wertheimerinae, new subfamily, is described for Kalyptodoras and Wertheimeria. Doradinae is corroborated as monophyletic and composed of four groups, one including Centrochir and Platydoras, the other with the large-size species of doradids (except Oxydoras), another with Orinocodoras, Rhinodoras, and Rhynchodoras, and another with Oxydoras plus all the fimbriate-barbel doradids. Based on the results, the species of Opsodoras are included in Hemidoras; and Tenellus, new genus, is described to include Nemadoras trimaculatus, N.

    Neotropical Ichthyology, 4(1):27-44, 2006 Copyright © 2006 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia Revision of the South American freshwater fish genus Laemolyta Cope, 1872 (Ostariophysi: Characiformes: Anostomidae) Kelly Cristina Mautari and Naércio Aquino Menezes The anostomid genus Laemolyta Cope, 1872, is redefined.Various morphological, especially osteological characters in addi- tion to the commonly utilized features of dentition proved useful for its characterization. A taxonomic revision of all species was made using meristics, morphometrics and color pattern. Five species are recognized: Laemolyta fernandezi Myers, 1950, from the río Orinoco (Venezuela) and the sub-basins Tocantins/Araguaia and Xingu, L. orinocensis (Steindachner, 1879), restricted to the río Orinoco, L. garmani (Borodin, 1931) and L. proxima (Garman, 1890), from the Amazon basin with the latter also occurring in the Essequibo River (Guiana), and L. taeniata (Kner, 1859), from the Amazon and Orinoco basins. Laemolyta garmani macra is considered a synonym of L. garmani, L. petiti a synonym of L. fernandezi, and L. nitens and L. varia synonyms of L. proxima. Lectotypes are designated herein for L. orinocencis and L. taeniata. O gênero Laemolyta Cope, 1872 da família Anostomidae é redefinido e além das características da dentição usualmente utilizadas, outros caracteres morfológicos, principalmente osteológicos, também se revelaram úteis para sua conceituação. Foi feita a revisão taxonômica de todas as espécies utilizando-se dados morfométricos, merísticos e padrão de colorido. Cinco espécies são reconhecidas: Laemolyta fernandezi Myers, 1950 do rio Orinoco (Venezuela) e rios Tocantins/Araguaia e Xingu, Laemolyta orinocensis (Steindachner, 1879) restrita ao rio Orenoco, L. garmani (Borodin, 1931) e Laemolyta proxima (Garman, 1890) da bacia Amazônica, esta última ocorrendo também no rio Essequibo (Guianas) e Laemolyta taeniata (Kner, 1859) da bacia Amazônica e rio Orenoco.
