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).

RICARDO SERRÃO SANTOS, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS SANTOS, RICARDO SERRÃO, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS 1997. Marine fishes of the Azores: An annotated checklist and bibliography. Arquipélago. Life and Marine Sciences Supplement 1: xxiii + 242pp. Ponta Delgada. ISSN 0873-4704. ISBN 972-9340-92-7. A list of the marine fishes of the Azores is presented. The list is based on a review of the literature combined with an examination of selected specimens available from collections of Azorean fishes deposited in museums, including the collection of fish at the Department of Oceanography and Fisheries of the University of the Azores (Horta). Personal information collected over several years is also incorporated. The geographic area considered is the Economic Exclusive Zone of the Azores. The list is organised in Classes, Orders and Families according to Nelson (1994). The scientific names are, for the most part, those used in Fishes of the North-eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean (FNAM) (Whitehead et al. 1989), and they are organised in alphabetical order within the families. Clofnam numbers (see Hureau & Monod 1979) are included for reference. Information is given if the species is not cited for the Azores in FNAM. Whenever available, vernacular names are presented, both in Portuguese (Azorean names) and in English. Synonyms, misspellings and misidentifications found in the literature in reference to the occurrence of species in the Azores are also quoted. The 460 species listed, belong to 142 families; 12 species are cited for the first time for the Azores.

Seventy-six species were encountered in 252 censuses, with mean ± s.e.of99± 3 individuals and 15·7 ± 0·3 species 40 m−2 transect. The average fish biomass, calculated from length-class estimation, was 22·1kg40m−2 transect. The species contributing most to biomass were, in decreasing order, Melichthys niger, Cephalopholis fulva, Kyphosus spp., Holocentrus adscensionis, Sparisoma amplum, Sparisoma axillare, Acanthurus bahianus and Epinephelus adscensionis. Carnivorous fishes were the largest trophic group in terms of biomass, followed by omnivores and roving herbivores. The two predominant types of reef habitat, fringing reefs built by coralline algae and rocky reefs made of volcanic boulders, showed significant differences in the biomass and the abundance of the trophic guilds.

  • Zootaxa, a New Species of Snapper
    Zootaxa 1422: 31–43 (2007) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2007 · Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) A new species of snapper (Perciformes: Lutjanidae) from Brazil, with comments on the distribution of Lutjanus griseus and L. apodus RODRIGO L. MOURA1 & KENYON C. LINDEMAN2 1Conservation International Brasil, Programa Marinho, Rua das Palmeiras 451 Caravelas BA 45900-000 Brazil E-mail:[email protected] 2Environmental Defense, 485 Glenwood Avenue, Satellite Beach, FL, 32937 USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Snappers of the family Lutjanidae contain several of the most important reef-fishery species in the tropical western Atlantic. Despite their importance, substantial gaps exist for both systematic and ecological information, especially for the southwestern Atlantic. Recent collecting efforts along the coast of Brazil have resulted in the discovery of many new reef-fish species, including commercially important parrotfishes (Scaridae) and grunts (Haemulidae). Based on field col- lecting, museum specimens, and literature records, we describe a new species of snapper, Lutjanus alexandrei, which is apparently endemic to the Brazilian coast. The newly settled and early juvenile life stages are also described. This spe- cies is common in many Brazilian reef and coastal estuarine systems where it has been often misidentified as the gray snapper, Lutjanus griseus, or the schoolmaster, L. apodus. Identification of the new species cast doubt on prior distribu- tional assumptions about the southern ranges of L. griseus and L. apodus, and subsequent field and museum work con- firmed that those species are not reliably recorded in Brazil. The taxonomic status of two Brazilian species previously referred to Lutjanus, Bodianus aya and Genyoroge canina, is reviewed to determine the number of valid Lutjanus species occurring in Brazil.

  • Swim Bladder and Its Modifications Swim Bladder
    Swim Bladder and its modifications Swim Bladder Swim bladder also known as air bladder or gas bladder is a characteristic structure in most of the osteichthyes It situated between the alimentary canal and kidneys and sac like in appearance It contain air and develop as a small outgrowth from wall of the gut Structural Modification In primitive bony fish, Polypterus it is in the form of bilobed sac having smooth wall. The right lobe is larger than the left and the two are joined at the proximal ends before opening into the pharynx by an aperture (glottis) provided with muscular sphincter In Lepidosteus (Holostei) the bladder is single elongated sac which open into gut by glottis. The wall of sac is not smooth but shows alveoli arranged in two rows In Dipnoi, Neoceratodus, Protopterus and Lepidosiren the bladder resembles the lung of an amphibian. The wall of bladder is highly vascular and shows numerous alveoli that are further divided into the smaller sacculi. Their bladder is modified for aerial respiration Structural Modification in teleost Gas bladder is present in most teleost but it is absent in several order of fishes such as Pleuronectiformes, Echeneiformes, Giganturiformes, Saccopharyngiformes, Pegasifformes and Symbranchiformes Teleost species in which bladder is present , it may be oval, tubular fusiform, heart shaped, horse-shoe shaped or dumb bell shaped In Cyprinidae (Labeo, Cirrhinus, Catla) the air bladder is divided into two inter connecting chambers In several sound producing fishes, the air bladder has finger like caecal outgrouth. In Gadus a pair of such caeca extend into the head region of the fish.

  • Hemiramphidae Gill 1859 Halfbeaks
    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 22 February 2004 Family Hemiramphidae Gill 1859 halfbeaks 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] The Hemiramphidae, the halfbeaks, is one of five families of the order Beloniformes (Rosen and Parenti 1981 [ref. 5538]). The family name is based on Hemiramphus Cuvier 1816 [ref. 993], but many authors have misspelled the genus as Hemirhamphus and the family name as Hemirhamphidae (although the other genera in the family do have the extra h; e.g., Arrhamphus, Euleptorhamphus, Hyporhamphus, Oxypo- rhamphus, and Rhynchorhamphus). The family contains two subfamilies, 14 genera and subgenera, and 117 species and subspecies. It is the sister-group of the Exocoetidae, the flyingfishes, forming the super- family Exocoetoidea (Collette et al. 1984 [ref. 11422]). Most halfbeaks have an elongate lower jaw that distinguishes them from the flyingfishes (Exocoetidae), which have lost the elongate lower jaw, and from the needlefishes (Belonidae) and sauries (Scomberesocidae), which have both jaws elongate. The Hemi- ramphidae is defined by one derived character: the third pair of upper pharyngeal bones are anklylosed into a plate. Other diagnostic characters include: pectoral fins short or moderately long; premaxillae pointed anteriorly, forming a triangular upper jaw (except in Oxyporhamphus); lower jaw elongate in juveniles of all genera, adults of most genera; parapophyses forked; and swim bladder not extending into the haemal canal.

Poissons ostéichthyens du Maastrichtien au sud du Niger Marc Michaut Institut préparatoire aux études scientifiques et techniques, Université de Tunis, La Marsa, Tunisie 29 janvier 2017 Abstract A large set of chiefly marine fossils is provided by the maastrichtian sites of the south of Niger, which are above all In Daman, and also Kehehe and Mentess. The bony fishes represent an important part of these fossils, so we were able to count in total 33 species belonging to 25 genera. Various taxa are present : Ceratodonti- dae, Pycnodontiformes, Ichthyodectiformes or Tselfatiiformes, Pachyrhizodontidae, Albuliformes, Siluriformes, Stratodontidae, Enchodontidae, Cimolichthyidae, Blo- chiidae, Sphyraenidae, Tetraodontiformes, Sparidae and other indeterminate taxa. In contrast with other maastrichtian areas, the Nigerien fossils arise almost only as alone bones or teeth ; this feature produces many difficulties for their studies. So we were compelled to use a distinct specific method for each taxon, in order to recover the highest amount of information from the fossils.

Summary: Local patterns of fish density, microhabitat use, feeding behaviour, bite rate, territory area and agonistic inter- actions were recorded for Ophioblennius trinitatis at an oceanic archipelago (southwestern Atlantic). Rugosity, number of crevices and benthic diversity positively predicted the distribution of O. trinitatis. Turf algae was the preferred food item at all sites, but given its high availability inside and outside territory boundaries, it did not seem to be a limiting factor on the density of this blenny, as opposed to substrate heterogeneity. Bite rate was higher in the afternoon and for smaller individu- als (juveniles). Territory size showed local variation and, although larger territories may be an effect of density-dependent conditions (more available space in low-density areas), we propose that individuals expand territories to compensate for re- siding in areas of lower quality (i.e. of low structural complexity). Larger individuals defended larger territories and residents responded differently to intruders, with higher rates of agonistic interactions towards potential competitors.
