Donnelly Secretary Florida International University College of Arts & Sciences 11200 SW 8th St. - ECS 450 Miami, FL 33199 [email protected] 305.348.1235 13 June 2010 The ASIH Board of Governor's is scheduled to meet on Wednesday, 7 July 2010 from 5:00 – 7:00 pm in the Westin Hotel in Narragansett Ballroom B. President Hanken plans to move blanket acceptance of all reports included in this book that cover society business for 2009 and 2010 (in part). The book includes the ballot information for the 2010 elections (Board of Governors and Annual Business Meeting). Governors can ask to have items exempted from blanket approval. These exempted items will be acted upon individually. We will also act individually on items exempted by the Executive Committee. Please remember to bring this booklet with you to the meeting. I will bring a few extra copies to Providence. Please contact me directly (email is best - [email protected]) with any questions you may have. Please notify me if you will not be able to attend the meeting so I can share your regrets with the Governors. I will leave for Providence (via Boston on 4 July 2010) so try to contact me before that date if possible. I will arrive in Providence on the afternoon of 6 July 2010 The Annual Business Meeting will be held on Sunday 11 July 2010 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm in The Rhode Island Convention Center (RICC) in Room 556 AB.

Její zástupci jsou morfologicky velmi variabilní, vykazují různé potravní i reprodukční strategie a fylogenetické vztahy uvnitř této skupiny nejsou prozatím uspokojivě vyřešeny. Cílem této rešeršní práce bylo shromáždit co nejvíce informací o biologii, ekologii a biogeografii příslušníků rodu Geophagus s.l. (Geophagus, Gymnogeophagus, Microgeophagus, Crenicara, Dicrossus, Biotodoma) tvořícího významnou část diverzity tribu Geophagini, a shrnout současný stav poznání jejich fylogenetických vztahů. Jako alternativní hypotézu k současnému výkladu vzniku diverzity uvnitř celého tribu jsem do své práce zařadila biogeografickou analýzu této skupiny metodou S-DiVA (Statistical Dispersal-Vicariance Analysis).

Ecologia, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Alameda 340, Casilla 114-D, Santiago, Chile Accepted 02.v.2013. Published online at www.senckenberg.de/vertebrate-zoology on 29.viii.2013. Abstract A new species of Apistogramma, Apistogramma aguarico sp. n., is described from Ecuador, based on a total of 9 specimens collected from an oxbow lake (appr. 09°47′ S / 75°57′ W) connected to the Rio Lagartococha, an affluent of the Rio Aguarico, which is part of the Rio Napo system in the north east of Ecuador close to the border with Peru. Apistogramma aguarico sp. n. is distinguished from all other Apistogramma species by the combination (in adult males) of: truncate unmarked caudal fin with streamer-like extensions to both up- per and lower lobes in large individuals; four irregular abdominal lines formed by series of highly variable spots; serrate dorsal fin with membranes clearly prolonged past tips of spines; and ivory spot surrounding and including pectoral-fin base. The species is thought to be a representative of the Apistogramma eunotus complex within the Apistogramma regani lineage.

The St. Catharines & Area Aquarium Society is also a member of the Federation of American Aquarium Societies (FAAS – www.faas.info). More news and information about the St. Catharines & Area Aquarium Society can be found at – www.scaas.info. Our next meeting will be held on Monday, October 1st, 2012 at the Seafarers & Teamster's Union Hall, 70 St. Davids Rd. E. Thorold, Ontario. Meetings start at 7:30 but feel free to arrive early to enter items for the auction or to “talk fish”.

  • Body Size Evolution and Diversity of Fishes Using the Neotropical Cichlids (Cichlinae) As a Model System
    Body Size Evolution and Diversity of Fishes using the Neotropical Cichlids (Cichlinae) as a Model System by Sarah Elizabeth Steele A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology University of Toronto © Copyright by Sarah Elizabeth Steele 2018 Body Size Evolution and Diversity of Fishes using the Neotropical Cichlids (Cichlinae) as a Model System Sarah Elizabeth Steele Doctor of Philosophy Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology University of Toronto 2018 Abstract The influence of body size on an organism’s physiology, morphology, ecology, and life history has been considered one of the most fundamental relationships in ecology and evolution. The ray-finned fishes are a highly diverse group of vertebrates. Yet, our understanding of diversification in this group is incomplete, and the role of body size in creating this diversity is largely unknown. I examined body size in Neotropical cichlids (Cichlinae) to elucidate the large- and small-scale factors affecting body size diversity and distribution, and how body size shapes species, morphological, and ecological diversity in fishes. Characterization of body size distributions across the phylogeny of Neotropical cichlids revealed considerable overlap in body size, particularly in intermediate-sized fishes, with few, species-poor lineages exhibiting extreme body size. Three potential peaks of adaptive evolution in body size were identified within Cichlinae. I found freshwater fishes globally tend to be smaller and their distributions more diverse and right-skewed than marine counterparts, irrespective of taxonomy and clade age, with a strengthening of these trends in riverine systems. Comparisons of Neotropical cichlid body size diversity and distribution to this broader context shows that body size patterns are largely abnormal compared to most freshwater fishes, particularly those of the Neotropics.
