Abstract.—We critically reviewed the homologies of the jaw muscles in tetraodontiform fishes (Triacanthoidea, Balistoidea, Tetraodontoidea), as first described in Winterbottom's phylogenetic monograph (1974, Smithson. Contrib. Zool. 155:1-201), as a case study in structural duplication. Within this order of teleost fishes, the two main adductor mandibulae muscles, Al and A2, are duplicated one or more times in some subclades. The number of descendant Al and A2 muscles ranges from as few as the original two muscles in triplespines to as many as eight muscles in some . As first pointed out by Winterbottom, the homologies of some muscles are unclear, particularly in comparisons between the superfamilies Balistoidea (boxfishes, , file- fishes) and Tetraodontoidea (pursefishes, molas, puffers, porcupinefishes). We reassessed the ho- mologies (orthologs and paralogs) of these Al and A2 muscles based on their origins, insertions, and relative masses in representative taxa and their congruence with a phylogeny for these taxa. New names that reflect the homologies of these muscles are presented. Ten muscle duplications by subdivision and three phylogenetic losses of muscles have occurred in this system. No rela- tionship was found between the number of separate muscles and the relative masses of the Al or A2 muscles, suggesting that muscle duplication events essentially repackage existing muscle tissue. However, both Al and A2 muscle masses are correlated with each other and with the feeding ecology of these fishes. Durophagous taxa have relatively larger Al and A2 muscles, whereas planktivores and benthic grazers have relatively smaller A2 muscles.

In most balistoids and tetra- -0.70- odontoids, A2p is larger than A2a. This 2 3 4 5 6 7 pattern is reversed in all monacanthids Number of A1 & A2 muscles such as Monacanthus and in a single balis- tid, Xanthichthys, where A2a is larger than ^ 0.25 A2(3. This reversal is more likely due to a s reduction in A2(3 rather than to an increase in A2a because these same taxa have neg- ative A2 residuals as compared with other tetraodontiforms (Fig. 8). One other nota- ble difference is the relatively small A2a and large A2p't and A2f*"t of Sphoeroides as compared with other tetraodontids. This pattern may be associated with the fact that A2a uniquely inserts on the upper jaw in this genus.
