Box 1870 Nordnes, N-5817 Bergen, Norway 2South African Institute of Aquatic Biodiversity, Grahamstown, South Africa 3 Australian Museum, Sydney, Australia 4Corresponding author. E-Mail: [email protected] Abstract Upeneus stenopsis n. sp. is described based on four specimens collected off northern Australia and Quezon Island, Philippines, at depths between 165 to 275 m and compared with four closely related species: the deep-water dwelling Upeneus davidaromi (Red Sea) and U. mascareinsis (Western Indian Ocean) and the shallow Indo-West Pacific species, U. subvittatus and U. vittatus. The new species can be distinguished from all other Upeneus species by a narrow caudal peduncle and a combination of morphometric and meristic characters. This is the first record of a deep-water goatfish of the genus Upeneus from the Pacific. A juvenile Upeneus collected off Quezon at 127–142 m depth was also assigned to the new species and compared to four similar-sized (69–79 mm SL) specimens of U. mascareinsis. A diagnosis is provided for U. subvittatus, along with evidence of its occurrence in the Eastern Indian Ocean and interspecific comparisons. The continued need to screen scientific fish collections for the occurrence of undescribed species that have successfully colonized and adapted to the depth zone surrounding the ocean margin is outlined.

  • Plants and Politics at the Bogor Botanical Gardens
    Vol. 11, no. 3 (2018) 169–177 | ISSN: 1876-9055 | e-ISSN: 2212-7283 Laborious Transformations: Plants and Politics at the Bogor Botanical Gardens ANDREAS WEBER* & ROBERT-JAN WILLE** ABSTRACT Contributors to this theme issue examine the history of the life sciences at the Botanical Gardens in Bogor (Kebun Raya Bogor) in Indonesia. Each of the essays in this theme issue focusses on a major transformation that the garden, its networks, and staff underwent in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Before summarizing individual contributions, this introductory essay familiarizes readers with more recent scholarship in the field. Taken together, the essays in our theme issue suggest that the practice of the life sciences at the Gardens can be best analyzed as the outcome of historical processes of coordination and competition in which different disciplines, communities, and networks not only in insular Southeast Asia but also other parts of the world played a formative role. Keywords: history of life sciences, Kebun Bogor Raya, Buitenzorg, Indonesia, colonialism, botanical garden The Bogor Botanical Gardens1 in Indonesia, which was called ‘s Lands Plantentuin in what was then Buitenzorg in the Dutch Indies, has undergone several crucial transformations since its foundation in 1817. Even if one focusses only on the colonial period and lea- ves aside the period after the Indonesian Revolution, the Gardens’ history enhances our understanding of the complex relationship between evolving colonial science practices and varying forms of imperial politics. The historical relationship between the botanical garden’s political organization and practices to study plants can be best described as co- evolutionary. Earlier versions of the papers in this theme issue have been presented at an * University of Twente, Department of Science, Technology, and Policy Studies (BMS-STePS), PO Box 217, 7500 AE, The Netherlands.

The new species can be dis- tinguished from all other congeneric species by the combination of four characters: number of gill rakers on lower limb, caudal-peduncle depth, interorbital length, and interdorsal distance. Strong allometric variation in body form between the holotype and the four smaller paratypes was found. Based on the lack of lateral body stripes, a rather narrow caudal pe- duncle depth, and large eyes in adults as common characteristics for U.

  • From Laboratory Lichens to Colonial Symbiosis. Melchior Treub Bringing German Evolutionary Plant Embryology to Dutch Indonesia, 1880–1909
    Vol. 11, no. 3 (2018) 191–205 | ISSN: 1876-9055 | e-ISSN: 2212-7283 From Laboratory Lichens to Colonial Symbiosis. Melchior Treub Bringing German Evolutionary Plant Embryology to Dutch Indonesia, 1880–1909 ROBERT-JAN WILLE* ABSTRACT In this article I demonstrate that Buitenzorg formed an important site for developmental botany or plant embryology. The research station at Buitenzorg was not only a place for colonial big science, but also a hotspot for new transformations in biology. This article focuses on the evolutionary science practice of Buitenzorg’s director Melchior Treub and on how he adapted a German style of laboratory biology to the reality of the colonial tropics. In Buitenzorg, plant embryology evolved from a European taxonomic Hilfswissenschaft into a leading sub-discipline of colonial agricultural science. Studying cooperation in nature, Treub was extra keen on experimenting with new forms of political cooperation in the empire. Keywords: Melchior Treub, plant embryology, research stations, development, imperialism, Buitenzorg In contrast to previous directors, Melchior Treub was not overly excited when he moved to the Dutch colonies in Southeast Asia to take up the position of director of the Plantentuin in Buitenzorg. Treub had ambitions for a European professorship instead and would feel exiled during his first years in Java.1 Nevertheless, he would stay for 29 years, until 1909. Under his directorship the Plantentuin transformed from a botanical garden with a handful of European staff – and already several more Javanese and Sundanese workers – into a central imperial office for science and agriculture, with more than ten laboratories in Java and Sumatra and hundreds of bureaucrats, scientists and labourers, not only from the Indonesian Archipelago but also from other parts of the world.

It has a rounded snout with two short, thin barbels. Two well-separated dorsal fins are present; the first of them has 7 spines and the second has 8–10 soft rays, lying directly above the anal fin (which has 1 spine and 6–8 soft rays). The tail fin is deeply forked. The back and sides of this goatfish are mottled reddish-brown and the belly is white. The tail fin lobes are striped with 3–7 reddish-brown bars with white interspaces on the upper lobe and 4–5 of the same colour on the lower lobe. 2013-2021 © IUCN Centre for Mediterranean Cooperation. More info: www.iucn-medmis.org Pag. 1/5 Mediterranean invasive species factsheet www.iucn-medmis.org Identification and Habitat Other species that look similar This species is typically found in waters to a depth of 50 m on sandy, gravel and muddy seabeds. It feeds on small benthic invertebrates, mainly crustaceans and, to a lesser extent, polychaetes. Reproduction The spawning season for Por's goatfish lasts from March to September. The eggs and larvae are planktonic and larvae settle 6–9 months after hatching, upon reaching a length of 3–4 cm. Similar Species Five species of the family Mullidae occur in the Mediterranean: two are non-indigenous Red Sea species, the goldband goatfish Upeneus moluccensis and the brownband or Por’s goatfish U.

Of the 42 species of goatfishes (Mullidae) recorded from this area, 12 were described only since 2010 and ten of those belong to the genus Upeneus. During a recent review of species of Upeneus of the so-called japonicus-species group (characterized by seven dorsal-fin spines), 13 specimens that had been previously identified as U. guttatus from Indonesia and Vietnam were found to be distinct, representing possibly two undescribed species. These specimens were studied together with 20 U. itoui from S Japan, a rather similar species, and a yet unidentified congeneric from S Japan.
