    ISSN 1545-150X California Academy of Sciences A N N O T A T E D C H E C K L I S T S O F F I S H E S Number 16 September 2003 Family Belonidae Bonaparte 1832 needlefishes By Bruce B. Collette National Marine Fisheries Service Systematics Laboratory National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC 20560–0153, U.S.A. email: [email protected] Needlefishes are a relatively small family of beloniform fishes (Rosen and Parenti 1981 [ref. 5538], Collette et al. 1984 [ref. 11422]) that differ from other members of the order in having both the upper and the lower jaws extended into long beaks filled with sharp teeth (except in the neotenic Belonion), the third pair of upper pharyngeal bones separate, scales on the body relatively small, and no finlets following the dorsal and anal fins. The nostrils lie in a pit anterior to the eyes. There are no spines in the fins. The dorsal fin, with 11–43 rays, and anal fin, with 12–39 rays, are posterior in position; the pelvic fins, with 6 soft rays, are located in an abdominal position; and the pectoral fins are short, with 5–15 rays. The lateral line runs down from the pectoral fin origin and then along the ventral margin of the body. The scales are small, cycloid, and easily detached. Precaudal vertebrae number 33–65, caudal vertebrae 19–41, and total verte- brae 52–97. Some freshwater needlefishes reach only 6 or 7 cm (2.5 or 2.75 in) in total length while some marine species may attain 2 m (6.5 ft).

We compared species lists from nine sites in the Madre de Dios region, five of which are in nationally recognized protected areas and four are outside the country’s protected area system. Los Amigos, occurring outside the protected area system, is the most species-rich locality included in our comparison.

  • Changes in the Fish Community of a Western Caribbean Estuary After the Expansion of an Artificial Channel to the Sea
    water Article Changes in the Fish Community of a Western Caribbean Estuary after the Expansion of an Artificial Channel to the Sea Juan J. Schmitter-Soto * and Roberto L. Herrera-Pavón El Colegio de la Frontera Sur, Av. Centenario km 5.5, Chetumal 77014, Quintana Roo, Mexico; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +52-983-835-0440 (ext. 4302) Received: 30 October 2019; Accepted: 2 December 2019; Published: 6 December 2019 Abstract: Increased connectivity between coastal lagoons and the sea is expected to entail a greater proportion of marine species in the former. Chetumal Bay, estuary of the Hondo river into the Caribbean, had a limited access to the sea until the opening of the Zaragoza Canal. We sought changes in the fish community from 1999–2001 (just after an expansion of the canal) to 2015–2018. The same fishing gear was used, in the same localities, during all seasons. Total fish abundance and mean local richness decreased, although total abundance increased in the polyhaline zone. Diversity was greater in the oligohaline zone in 1999–2001, and in the mesohaline zone in 2015–2018. Three guilds were absent in 2015–2018: Medium-sized herbivores, large piscivores, and medium-sized planktivores. Abundance of small benthivores decreased by decade; medium-sized piscivores and small planktivores became more abundant in 2015–2018 in the polyhaline zone. These changes may be due to the opening of the channel, but illegal fishing outside the bay may explain the decrease in juveniles of large piscivores, and erosion in the innermost part may be destroying important habitats.

Holoubek and William E. Jensen Department of Biological Sciences, Emporia State University, 1200 Commercial Ave, Emporia, KS 66801 Oak savanna, once widespread across central North America, has functionally vanished from most of its range. Our objective was to quantify avian habitat associations across a gradient from open-canopy oak savanna to closed-canopy forest in the Cross Timbers region of southeastern Kansas. Using 2012 point-count data, we modeled species-specific detection (p) and occupancy (ψ) probabilities against vegetative variables using program Presence. We first established the best p predictors and then used these when modeling ψ. Of 28 species modeled, ψ for 7 was strongly associated with vegetative variables. Occupancies of Contopus virens, Polioptila caerulea, and Passerina cyanea peaked at intermediate tree densities or canopy coverages. Icterus spurius, Spiza americana, and Spizella pusilla occupancies were highest at low tree densities or canopy coverages. These species might benefit from reductions in tree density within otherwise closed-canopy forest. Moderate habitat relationships with ψ were found for three other species. Point counts will resume in 2013. Quantifying bird habitat use in oak savanna will be useful in guiding future savanna restoration for avian conservation. Roble Sabana, una vez extendido a traves de Norte America central, ha funcionalmente desaparecido en la mayoria de su extension.

  • Do Natural Differences in Acoustic Signals Really Interfere in Conspecific Recognition in the Pan-Amazonian Frog Allobates Femoralis?
    Do natural differences in acoustic signals really interfere in conspecific recognition in the pan-Amazonian frog Allobates femoralis? Luciana K. Erdtmann1), Pedro I. Simões, Ana Carolina Mello & Albertina P. Lima (Coordenação de Pesquisas em Ecologia, Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia, Avenida André Araújo 2936, Cx. Postal 478, Aleixo, Manaus, AM 69060-001, Brazil) (Accepted: 28 February 2011) Summary The call of the pan-Amazonian frog Allobates femoralis shows wide geographical variation, and males show a stereotyped and conspicuous phonotactic response to playback of conspe- cific calls. We evaluated the capacity of males of A. femoralis and a closely related species A. hodli to respond aggressively to natural conspecific and heterospecific calls varying in number of notes, by means of field playback experiments performed at two sites in the Brazil- ian Amazon. The first site, Cachoeira do Jirau (Porto Velho, Rondônia), is a parapatric con- tact zone between A. femoralis that use 4-note calls, and A. hodli with 2-note calls, where we performed cross-playbacks in both focal populations. The second site, the Reserva Florestal Adolpho Ducke (Manaus, Amazonas), contained only A. femoralis with 4-note calls. There, we broadcast natural stimuli of 2-note A. hodli, 3-note and 4-note A. femoralis, and 6-note A. myersi. We found that the phonotactic behaviour of A. femoralis and A. hodli males did not differ toward conspecific and heterospecific stimuli, even in parapatry. Our results indi- cated that the evolutionary rates of call design and call perception are different, because the geographical variation in calls was not accompanied by variation in the males’ aggressive behaviour.

  • Fishes of the Lemon Bay Estuary and a Comparison of Fish Community Structure to Nearby Estuaries Along Florida’S Gulf Coast
    Biological Sciences Fishes of the Lemon Bay estuary and a comparison of fish community structure to nearby estuaries along Florida’s Gulf coast Charles F. Idelberger(1), Philip W. Stevens(2), and Eric Weather(2) (1)Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Fish and Wildlife Research Institute, Charlotte Harbor Field Laboratory, 585 Prineville Street, Port Charlotte, Florida 33954 (2)Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Fish and Wildlife Research Institute, 100 Eighth Avenue Southeast, Saint Petersburg, Florida 33701 Abstract Lemon Bay is a narrow, shallow estuary in southwest Florida. Although its fish fauna has been studied intermittently since the 1880s, no detailed inventory has been available. We sampled fish and selected macroinvertebrates in the bay and lower portions of its tributaries from June 2009 through April 2010 using seines and trawls. One hundred three fish and six invertebrate taxa were collected. Pinfish Lagodon rhomboides, spot Leiostomus xanthurus, bay anchovy Anchoa mitchilli, mojarras Eucinostomus spp., silver perch Bairdiella chrysoura, and scaled sardine Harengula jaguana were among the most abundant species. To place our information into a broader ecological context, we compared the Lemon Bay fish assemblages with those of nearby estuaries. Multivariate analyses revealed that fish assemblages of Lemon and Sarasota bays differed from those of lower Charlotte Harbor and lower Tampa Bay at similarities of 68–75%, depending on collection gear. These differences were attributed to greater abundances of small-bodied fishes in Lemon and Sarasota bays than in the other much larger estuaries. Factors such as water circulation patterns, length of shoreline relative to area of open water, and proximity of Gulf passes to juvenile habitat may differ sufficiently between the small and large estuaries to affect fish assemblages.
