Također, oni su jedna od akustički najistraživanijih skupina zrakoperki današnjice, sa 23 poznate vrste koje se glasaju. U sklopu ove disertacije, u četiri znanstvene publikacije prvi je put istražena, upotrebom bioakustičkih metoda i analiza, sposobnost stvaranja zvukova i vokalni repertoar glavoča linije Gobius Neogobius melanostomus, Neogobius fluviatilis i Ponticola kessleri, kao i Perccottus glenii (Odontobutidae). Nadalje, ovom su disertacijom istražene anatomske strukture uključene u proces produkcije zvukova kod rotana, a rezultati su pokazali kako se mehanizam najvjerojatnije temelji na kontrakcijama kranijalno-pektoralnih mišića. Upotrebom molekularnih analiza koje uključuju metode filogenetske rekonstrukcije s mitohondrijskim i jezgrenim genetičkim biljezima, rekonstruirani su odnosi vokalnih glavoča linije Gobius te istražena korelacija između genetičke i akustičke divergencije. Rezultati ove disertacije naglašavaju kako su zvukovi glavoča specifični za pojedinu vrstu, dok njihova interspecijska akustička divergencija prati genetičku, što pokazuje kako evolucija zvukova i genotipova prati isti obrazac.

They are also one of the most investigated acoustic cluster of actinopterygian fish nowadays, with 23 species vocally tested. In this dissertation, represented through four scientific publications, the acoustic communication and vocal repertoire was investigated in Gobius-lineage gobies Neogobius melanostomus, Neogobius fluviatilis and Ponticola kessleri, as well as in Perccottus glenii (Odontobutidae), using standardized bioacoustic methods and analyses. The presented dissertation investigated the anatomical structures involved in the sound production, and the conducted analyses indicate that the sonic mechanism could be based on the contractions of cranio-pectoral muscles. By using phylogenetic analyses with a multilocus approach, we reconstructed the interspecific relationships between vocal gobies from Gobius-lineage and correlated the acoustic and genetic divergences. Results of this dissertation emphasize that goby sounds are truly species-specific, while their interspecific acoustic divergence follows the genotypic divergence, which could indicate that acoustic signals in gobies from Gobius-lineage carry phylogenetic signal.

In this paper, we report on the distribution, habitat, population structure and conservation needs of Cobitis ohridana and Barbatula zetensis in the basin of the River Moraèa in Montenegro. Our data show both species to be mainly distributed in the lower stretch of the main river and some tributaries in lowland habitats. Cobitis ohridana preferred more shallow water with a higher abundance of filamentous algae, while Barbatula zetensis was more numerous in slightly deeper water with more stones as a bottom substrate. Slight differences in the habitat preference were also observed between juveniles and adults in both species. Although both species are abundant in suited habitat, they have a small distribution area in the Moraèa basin due to the natural rarity of the habitat. According to our data, they are not endangered.

It is one of the 25 most important world hotspot areas of Biodiversity (Myers et al. 2000). Together with two other South European peninsulas, the Iberian and the Italian, the Balkans were the most important terrestrial Pleistocene glacial refugia in Europe. The reasons of high diversity in the Balkans The present-day geographical distribution of many European temperate species has been shaped by Quaternary climatic fluctuations and ice ages. The typical scenario predicts allopatric divergence following population fragmentation into isolated geographical refugia during glacial periods.

The aim of this research was to increase the information Squalius on ecological preferences of this species and to focus on its differences lucumonis, with S. squalus (Bonaparte, 1837). Data collected in 86 different water- Squalius courses throughout Tiber River basin were analysed in the research. For squalus, each of the 368 river sectors examined, the main environmental parame- longitudinal ters and the fish community were considered. The information were anal- gradient, ysed by means of the Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) while the fish assemblage differences in ecological traits between S. lucumonis and S. squalus were compared by ANOVA. The results of the study showed significant differ- ences in the ecological preferences of the two species: the S. lucumonis showed predilection for smaller watercourses characterised by a lower number of species and a higher degree of integrity of fish community than S. squalus This information allowed to increase the basic knowledge on population biology and ecology of S.

They include the smallest European freshwater fish, Economidichthys trichonis, which is threatened by habitat loss and pollution, as are several other sand gobies. Key to good conservation management is an accurate account of the number of evolutionary significant units. Nevertheless, many taxonomic and evolutionary questions remain unresolved within the clade, and molecular studies are lacking, especially in the Balkans. Using partial 12S and 16S mitochondrial ribosomal DNA sequences of 96 specimens of at least eight nominal species (both freshwater and marine populations), we assess species relationships and compare molecular and morphological data.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Fishes of the genus Cottus have long been taxonomically challenging because of morphological similarities among species and their tendency to hybridize, and a number of undescribed species may remain in this genus. We used a combination of genetic and morphological methods to delineate and describe Cottus schitsuumsh, Cedar Sculpin, a new species, from the upper Columbia River basin, Idaho-Montana, USA. Although historically confused with the Shorthead Sculpin (C. confusus), the genetic distance between C. schitsuumsh and C. confusus (4.84–6.29%) suggests these species are distant relatives. Moreover, the two species can be differentiated on the basis of lateral-line pores on the caudal peduncle, head width, and interpelvic width. Cottus schitsuumsh is also distinct from all other Cottus in this region in having a single small, skin-covered, preopercular spine. Haplotypes of mtDNA cytochrome oxidase c subunit 1 of C. schitsuumsh differed from all other members of the genus at three positions, had interspecific genetic distances typical for congeneric fishes (1.61–2.74% to nearest neighbors), and were monophyletic in maximum-likelihood trees.

Up to now, 17 of the 21 valid genera have been included into genetic phylogenies. The present phylogenetic study analyses the only two known species of Bibarba using nuclear and mitochondrial DNA sequences. Both species together formed a monophyletic lineage that is sister to the Northern clade of Cobitidae, but well-separated from the four other major lineages within the Northern clade. The results support the validity of the genus and show it to represent a major lineage on its own. The morphological synapomorphy of the northern clade is in the sexual dimorphism, with males bearing an ossified structure (lamina circularis or scale of Canestrini) on the second branched pectoral-fin ray in males. Bibarba was reported to have such structure on the third instead of second fin ray, but our observations reveal the presence of two lamina circularis, one on the second and one on the third fin ray (character doubling).
