  • A New Genus of Miniature Cynolebiasine from the Atlantic
    64 (1): 23 – 33 © Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung, 2014. 16.5.2014 A new genus of miniature cynolebiasine from the Atlantic Forest and alternative biogeographical explanations for seasonal killifish distribution patterns in South America (Cyprinodontiformes: Rivulidae) Wilson J. E. M. Costa Laboratório de Sistemática e Evolução de Peixes Teleósteos, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Caixa Postal 68049, CEP 21944 – 970, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil; wcosta(at)acd.ufrj.br Accepted 21.ii.2014. Published online at www.senckenberg.de/vertebrate-zoology on 30.iv.2014. Abstract The analysis of 78 morphological characters for 16 species representing all the lineages of the tribe Cynopoecilini and three out-groups, indicates that the incertae sedis miniature species ‘Leptolebias’ leitaoi Cruz & Peixoto is the sister group of a clade comprising the genera Leptolebias, Campellolebias, and Cynopoecilus, consequently recognised as the only member of a new genus. Mucurilebias gen. nov. is diagnosed by seven autapomorphies: eye occupying great part of head side, low number of caudal-fin rays (21), distal portion of epural much broader than distal portion of parhypural, an oblique red bar through opercle in both sexes, isthmus bright red in males, a white stripe on the distal margin of the dorsal fin in males, and a red stripe on the distal margin of the anal fin in males.Mucurilebias leitaoi is an endangered seasonal species endemic to the Mucuri river basin. The biogeographical analysis of genera of the subfamily Cynolebiasinae using a dispersal-vicariance, event-based parsimony approach indicates that distribution of South American killifishes may be broadly shaped by dispersal events.

  • GENETICS of the SIAMESE FIGHTING FISH, BETTA Splendensl
    GENETICS OF THE SIAMESE FIGHTING FISH, BETTA SPLENDENSl HENRY M. WALLBRUNN Department of Biology, Uniuersity of Florida, Gainesuille, Florida First received March 13, 1957 ETTA SPLENDENS more commonly known as the Siamese fighting fish has B been popular in aquariums of western Europe and America for over 35 years. Its domestication and consequent inbreeding antedates the introduction into the West by 60 or 70 years. Selection for pugnacity, long fins (see Figure l), and bright colors over this long period has produced a number of phenotypes, none of which is very similar to the short-finned wild form from the sluggish rivers and flooded rice paddies of Thialand (SMITH1945). The aquarium Betta is noted for its brilliant and varied colors. These are pro- duced by three pigments, lutein (yellow), erythropterin (red), and melanin (black) ( GOODRICH,HILL and ARRICK1941 ) and by scattering of light through small hexagonal crystals (GOODRICHand MERCER1934) giving steel blue, blue, or green. Each kind of pigment is contained in a distinct cell type, xanthophores, containing yellow, erythrophores red, and melanophores black. There are no chromatophores containing two pigments such as the xanthoerythrophores of Xiphophorus helleri. The reflecting cells responsible for iridescent blues and greens are known as iridocytes or guanophores and they are more superficial than the other chromatophores. Since the pigment granules may be greatly dispersed in the many branched pseudopods or clumped into a small knot in the center of the chromatophores, the color of any single fish may vary over a wide range of shades, and may do SO in a matter of seconds.

Generally, in this group, the upper jaw consists of the premaxilla, maxilla, and supramaxilla. The lower jaw consists of the dentary, anguloarticular, retroarticular, and sesamoid articular. In higher taxa, the premaxilla bears ascending, articular, and postmaxillary processes. The maxilla usually bears a ventral and a dorsal articular process. The supramaxilla is present only in some taxa. The dentary is usually toothed and bears coronoid and posteroventral processes. The retroarticular is small and located at the posteroventral corner of the anguloarticular. Keywords Acanthopterygii, Bone, Eurypterygii, Osteology, Percomprpha following method for clearing and staining bone and 1. Introduction cartilage provided in reference [18]. A camera lucida attached to a Wild M5 dissecting stereomicroscope was used Despite the introduction of modern techniques such as to prepare the drawings.

  • The Coincidence of Ecological Opportunity with Hybridization Explains Rapid Adaptive Radiation in Lake Mweru Cichlid fishes
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13278-z OPEN The coincidence of ecological opportunity with hybridization explains rapid adaptive radiation in Lake Mweru cichlid fishes Joana I. Meier 1,2,3,4, Rike B. Stelkens 1,2,5, Domino A. Joyce 6, Salome Mwaiko 1,2, Numel Phiri7, Ulrich K. Schliewen8, Oliver M. Selz 1,2, Catherine E. Wagner 1,2,9, Cyprian Katongo7 & Ole Seehausen 1,2* 1234567890():,; The process of adaptive radiation was classically hypothesized to require isolation of a lineage from its source (no gene flow) and from related species (no competition). Alternatively, hybridization between species may generate genetic variation that facilitates adaptive radiation. Here we study haplochromine cichlid assemblages in two African Great Lakes to test these hypotheses. Greater biotic isolation (fewer lineages) predicts fewer constraints by competition and hence more ecological opportunity in Lake Bangweulu, whereas opportunity for hybridization predicts increased genetic potential in Lake Mweru. In Lake Bangweulu, we find no evidence for hybridization but also no adaptive radiation. We show that the Bangweulu lineages also colonized Lake Mweru, where they hybridized with Congolese lineages and then underwent multiple adaptive radiations that are strikingly complementary in ecology and morphology. Our data suggest that the presence of several related lineages does not necessarily prevent adaptive radiation, although it constrains the trajectories of morphological diversification. It might instead facilitate adaptive radiation when hybridization generates genetic variation, without which radiation may start much later, progress more slowly or never occur. 1 Division of Aquatic Ecology & Evolution, Institute of Ecology and Evolution,UniversityofBern,Baltzerstr.6,CH-3012Bern,Switzerland.2 Department of Fish Ecology and Evolution, Centre of Ecology, Evolution and Biogeochemistry (CEEB), Eawag Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, Seestrasse 79, CH-6047 Kastanienbaum, Switzerland.

    CICHLIFORMES: Cichlidae (part 3) · 1 The ETYFish Project © Christopher Scharpf and Kenneth J. Lazara COMMENTS: v. 6.0 - 30 April 2021 Order CICHLIFORMES (part 3 of 8) Family CICHLIDAE Cichlids (part 3 of 7) Subfamily Pseudocrenilabrinae African Cichlids (Haplochromis through Konia) Haplochromis Hilgendorf 1888 haplo-, simple, proposed as a subgenus of Chromis with unnotched teeth (i.e., flattened and obliquely truncated teeth of H. obliquidens); Chromis, a name dating to Aristotle, possibly derived from chroemo (to neigh), referring to a drum (Sciaenidae) and its ability to make noise, later expanded to embrace cichlids, damselfishes, dottybacks and wrasses (all perch-like fishes once thought to be related), then beginning to be used in the names of African cichlid genera following Chromis (now Oreochromis) mossambicus Peters 1852 Haplochromis acidens Greenwood 1967 acies, sharp edge or point; dens, teeth, referring to its sharp, needle-like teeth Haplochromis adolphifrederici (Boulenger 1914) in honor explorer Adolf Friederich (1873-1969), Duke of Mecklenburg, leader of the Deutsche Zentral-Afrika Expedition (1907-1908), during which type was collected Haplochromis aelocephalus Greenwood 1959 aiolos, shifting, changing, variable; cephalus, head, referring to wide range of variation in head shape Haplochromis aeneocolor Greenwood 1973 aeneus, brazen, referring to “brassy appearance” or coloration of adult males, a possible double entendre (per Erwin Schraml) referring to both “dull bronze” color exhibited by some specimens and to what

  • Mitochondrial ND2 Phylogeny of Tilapiines and the Evolution of Parental Care Systems in the African Cichlid Fishes
    What, if Anything, is a Tilapia?ÐMitochondrial ND2 Phylogeny of Tilapiines and the Evolution of Parental Care Systems in the African Cichlid Fishes Vera Klett and Axel Meyer Department of Biology, University of Konstanz, Germany We estimated a novel phylogeny of tilapiine cichlid ®sh (an assemblage endemic to Africa and the Near East) within the African cichlid ®shes on the basis of complete mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2) gene sequences. The ND2 (1,047 bp) gene was sequenced in 39 tilapiine cichlids (38 species and 1 subspecies) and in an additional 14 nontilapiine cichlid species in order to evaluate the traditional morphologically based hypothesis of the respective monophyly of the tilapiine and haplochromine cichlid ®sh assemblages. The analyses included many additional cichlid lineages, not only the so-called tilapiines, but also lineages from Lake Tanganyika, east Africa, the Neotropics and an out-group from Madagascar with a wide range of parental care and mating systems. Our results suggest, in contrast to the historical morphology-based hypotheses from Regan (1920, 1922), Trewavas (1983), and Stiassny (1991), that the tilapiines do not form a monophyletic group because there is strong evidence that the genus Tilapia is not monophyletic but divided into at least ®ve distinct groups. In contrast to this ®nding, an allozyme analysis of Pouyaud and AgneÁse (1995), largely based on the same samples as used here, found a clustering of the Tilapia species into only two groups. This discrepancy is likely caused by the difference in resolution power of the two marker systems used. Our data suggest that only type species Tilapia sparrmanii Smith (1840) should retain the genus name Tilapia.
