Fahay ii Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean iii Dedication This monograph is dedicated to those highly skilled larval fish illustrators whose talents and efforts have greatly facilitated the study of fish ontogeny. The works of many of those fine illustrators grace these pages. iv Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean v Preface The contents of this monograph are a revision and update of an earlier atlas describing the eggs and larvae of western Atlantic marine fishes occurring between the Scotian Shelf and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (Fahay, 1983). The three-fold increase in the total num- ber of species covered in the current compilation is the result of both a larger study area and a recent increase in published ontogenetic studies of fishes by many authors and students of the morphology of early stages of marine fishes. It is a tribute to the efforts of those authors that the ontogeny of greater than 70% of species known from the western North Atlantic Ocean is now well described. Michael Fahay 241 Sabino Road West Bath, Maine 04530 U.S.A. vi Acknowledgements I greatly appreciate the help provided by a number of very knowledgeable friends and colleagues dur- ing the preparation of this monograph. Jon Hare undertook a painstakingly critical review of the entire monograph, corrected omissions, inconsistencies, and errors of fact, and made suggestions which markedly improved its organization and presentation.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

  • The Relationships of the Hawaiian Honeycreepers (Drepaninini) As Indicated by Dna-Dna Hybridization
    THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE HAWAIIAN HONEYCREEPERS (DREPANININI) AS INDICATED BY DNA-DNA HYBRIDIZATION CH^RrES G. SIBLEY AND Jo• E. AHLQUIST Departmentof Biologyand PeabodyMuseum of Natural History, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06511 USA ABSTRACT.--Twenty-twospecies of Hawaiian honeycreepers(Fringillidae: Carduelinae: Drepaninini) are known. Their relationshipsto other groups of passefineswere examined by comparing the single-copyDNA sequencesof the Apapane (Himationesanguinea) with those of 5 speciesof carduelinefinches, 1 speciesof Fringilla, 15 speciesof New World nine- primaried oscines(Cardinalini, Emberizini, Thraupini, Parulini, Icterini), and members of 6 other families of oscines(Turdidae, Monarchidae, Dicaeidae, Sylviidae, Vireonidae, Cor- vidae). The DNA-DNA hybridization data support other evidence indicating that the Hawaiian honeycreepersshared a more recent common ancestorwith the cardue!ine finches than with any of the other groupsstudied and indicate that this divergenceoccurred in the mid-Miocene, 15-20 million yr ago. The colonizationof the Hawaiian Islandsby the ancestralspecies that radiated to produce the Hawaiian honeycreeperscould have occurredat any time between 20 and 5 million yr ago. Becausethe honeycreeperscaptured so many ecologicalniches, however, it seemslikely that their ancestor was the first passefine to become established in the islands and that it arrived there at the time of, or soon after, its separationfrom the carduelinelineage. If so, this colonist arrived before the present islands from Hawaii to French Frigate Shoal were formed by the volcanic"hot-spot" now under the island of Hawaii. Therefore,the ancestral drepaninine may have colonizedone or more of the older Hawaiian Islandsand/or Emperor Seamounts,which also were formed over the "hot-spot" and which reachedtheir present positions as the result of tectonic crustal movement.

  • Marine Fishes of the Azores: an Annotated Checklist and Bibliography
    MARINE FISHES OF THE AZORES: AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST AND BIBLIOGRAPHY. RICARDO SERRÃO SANTOS, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS SANTOS, RICARDO SERRÃO, FILIPE MORA PORTEIRO & JOÃO PEDRO BARREIROS 1997. Marine fishes of the Azores: An annotated checklist and bibliography. Arquipélago. Life and Marine Sciences Supplement 1: xxiii + 242pp. Ponta Delgada. ISSN 0873-4704. ISBN 972-9340-92-7. A list of the marine fishes of the Azores is presented. The list is based on a review of the literature combined with an examination of selected specimens available from collections of Azorean fishes deposited in museums, including the collection of fish at the Department of Oceanography and Fisheries of the University of the Azores (Horta). Personal information collected over several years is also incorporated. The geographic area considered is the Economic Exclusive Zone of the Azores. The list is organised in Classes, Orders and Families according to Nelson (1994). The scientific names are, for the most part, those used in Fishes of the North-eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean (FNAM) (Whitehead et al. 1989), and they are organised in alphabetical order within the families. Clofnam numbers (see Hureau & Monod 1979) are included for reference. Information is given if the species is not cited for the Azores in FNAM. Whenever available, vernacular names are presented, both in Portuguese (Azorean names) and in English. Synonyms, misspellings and misidentifications found in the literature in reference to the occurrence of species in the Azores are also quoted. The 460 species listed, belong to 142 families; 12 species are cited for the first time for the Azores.

Heemstraa*, Karen Hissmannb, Hans Frickeb, Malcolm J. Smalec and Jürgen Schauerb (with hook and line or traps) in the daytime habitat of the coela- canth, we were able to identify 65 species (Table 1). For various Underwater observations of the coelacanth, Latimeria chalumnae reasons, the remaining taxa are identified only to genus or Smith, 1939, from a research submersible provided opportunities family level. Our list of the deep demersal fish at Ngazidja is to study the deep demersal fish fauna at the Comoro Islands. The obviously incomplete, as we made no attempt to collect small demersal habitat in depths of 150–400 m at the volcanic island of cryptic species (e.g. Scorpaenidae, Callionymidae, Draconettidae, Ngazidja is low in fish diversity and biomass, compared with the Percophidae, Epigonidae and Plectranthias). In addition, larger, shallow-water coral reef habitat of Ngazidja or the deep demersal elusive species (e.g. congrid and ophichthid eels and several habitats of other localities in the Indo-Pacific region. The resident species of sharks) that are known to occur at depths of 150–400 m deep demersal fish fauna at Ngazidja is dominated by the coela- in the Western Indian Ocean but have not yet been seen or canth, an ancient predator that is specially adapted for this caught at these depths at Ngazidja are not included in our low-energy environment.

  • Indications of Hotspot Movement
    Indications of Hotspot Movement The prominent bend in the Hawaiian-Emperor hotspot chain has previously been attributed to a significant change in the motion of the Pacific plate. The magnitude of a shift in plate motion large enough to create the bend present in the Hawaiian-Emperor chain would likely be present in other deposits in the pacific, which due to recent mapping of magnetic anomalies has not been observed. This leads to the hypothesis that the Hawaiian hotspot as well as the Pacific plate may be in motion. “One approach to examine hotspot fixity is to determine the age and paleolatitude of volcanoes that form a given hotspot track. For the Hawaiian hotspot, the paleolatitudes of extinct volcanic edifices of the Emperor chain should match the present-day latitude of Hawaii (~19º N) if the hotspot has remained fixed with respect to Earth's spin axis. The most reliable indicators of paleolatitude are basaltic rocks, but enough time must be spanned by any section such that geomagnetic secular variation is sampled. Recovery of such samples requires ocean drilling technology, and only a few seamounts have been sampled to date. Paleomagnetic analyses of 81-million-year-old basalt recovered from Detroit Seamount (Site 884) yielded a paleolatitude of ~36° N (10) that is discordant with Hawaii. Data from ~61 million-year-old basalt (9) from Suiko Seamount define a paleolatitude of 27° N (11). These data suggest that the Emperor Seamounts record southward motion of the hotspot plume in the mantle (10).” The Ocean Drilling Program(ODP) tested several seamounts in the Hawaiian-Emperor chain for paleolatitude data.
