Zoological Studies 51(8): 1490-1506. This study reports on (1) variations in the number and position of scleral ossicles in 283 actinopterygian species representing 172 families, (2) the distribution of the morphological variants of these bony elements, (3) the phylogenetic significance of these variations, and (4) a phylogenetic hypothesis relevant to the position of the Callionymoidei, Dactylopteridae, and Syngnathoidei based on these osteological variations. The results suggest that the Callionymoidei (not including the Gobiesocidae), Dactylopteridae, and Syngnathoidei are closely related. This conclusion was based on the apomorphic character state of having only the anterior scleral ossicle. Having only the anterior scleral ossicle should have evolved independently in the Syngnathioidei + Dactylopteridae + Callionymoidei, Gobioidei + Apogonidae, and Pleuronectiformes among the actinopterygians studied in this paper. http://zoolstud.sinica.edu.tw/Journals/51.8/1490.pdf Key words: Scleral ossicle, Actinopterygii, Phylogeny.

Competition and distribution model predictions vary based on dominance hierarchies, but most assume differences in dominance are constant across habitats. More recent evidence suggests dominance and competitive advantages may vary based on habitat. We quantified dominance interactions between two species of sharks Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos and Carcharhinus melanopterus, across two different habitats, fore reef and back reef, at a remote Pacific atoll. We used Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) to observe dominance behaviors and quantified the number of aggressive interactions or bites to the BRUVs from either species, both separately and in the presence of one another. Blacktip reef sharks were the most abundant species in either habitat, and there was significant negative correlation between their relative abundance, bites on BRUVs, and the number of grey reef sharks. Although this trend was found in both habitats, the decline in blacktip abundance with grey reef shark presence was far more pronounced in fore reef habitats. We show that the presence of one shark species may limit the feeding opportunities of another, but the extent of this relationship is habitat specific. Future competition models should consider habitat-specific dominance or competitive interactions.

WHITlEy5 SUMMARY lord Howe Island, some 630 kilometres off the northern coast of New South Wales, Australia at 31.5° South latitude, is the world's southern most locality with a well developed coral reef community and associated lagoon. An extensive collection of fishes from lord Howelsland was made during a month's expedition in February 1973. A total of 208 species are newly recorded from lord Howe Island and 23 species newly recorded from the Australian mainland. The fish fauna of lord Howe is increased to 447 species in 107 families. Of the 390 species of inshore fishes, the majority (60%) are wide-ranging tropical forms; some 10% are found only at lord Howe Island, southern Australia and/or New Zealand.

    MOLECULAR PHYLOGENETIC INVESTIGATION OF THE CLINGFISHES (TELEOSTEI: GOBIESOCIDAE) A Thesis by CRAGEN DANIELLE KING Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, Kevin W. Conway Committee Members, Gary Voelker David Portnoy Interdisciplinary Faculty Chair, Duncan MacKenzie December 2017 Major Subject: Marine Biology Copyright 2017 Cragen Danielle King ABSTRACT Currently, there are roughly 170 species of clingfishes (family Gobiesocidae) divided between ten subfamilies in a “phenetic” classification scheme proposed over 60 years ago. Recently, an alternative classification scheme was proposed which included only two subfamilies. For this study, a large scale multi-locus investigation on the phylogenetic relationships of the Gobiesocidae was conducted using both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequence data to assess whether the two available classification schemes reflect the evolutionary relationships of the group. Phylogenetic hypotheses are obtained from Bayesian and Maximum Likelihood analyses of two mitochondrial (12S and COI; 1062 bp) and five nuclear genes (ENC1, GLYT, MYH6, SH3PX3, and ZIC1; 3785 bp) for 81 species of clingfishes. Four of the ten subfamilies (Aspasminae, Diademichthyinae, Diplocrepinae, and Gobiesocinae) and four genera (Aspasmichthys, Cochleoceps, Lepadichthys, and Lepadogaster) are obtained as not monophyletic. The resulting topologies also do not recover the two-subfamily classification scheme as useful for classifying clingfishes because subfamily Cheilobranchinae is obtained as a monophyletic group that is deeply embedded inside the second subfamily Gobiesocinae. The two available classification schemes and their included subfamilies are discussed in detail. ii DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to my grandparents, parents, siblings, and to the Smiths for all of their love and support.

ZooKeys 709: 135–154. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.709.14711 Abstract Seventy-six species of fishes, representing 60 genera and 34 families, were recorded from tidal pools on Jeju Island, southern Korea. The major families in terms of species were the Gobiidae (11 species), Poma- centridae (8 species), Blenniidae (6 species), and Labridae (5 species). Thirty-nine species were classified as tropical, 26 as temperate and 11 as subtropical. Keywords coastal habitats, fish diversity, inventory, northwestern Pacific Introduction Jeju Island is located southwest of the Korean Peninsula (Kim and Go 2003, Kim et al. 2009, Kwun et al. 2017) and has a volcanic rocky shoreline. The island lies in the southernmost temperate region of Korea, and many subtropical and temperate species of fishes inhabit the coastal and adjacent waters of the island (Kim 2009).
