Phylogenetic Position of the Fish Genus Ellopostoma (Teleostei: Cypriniformes) Using Molecular Genetic Data
157 Ichthyol. Explor. Freshwaters, Vol. 20, No. 2, pp. 157-162, 2 figs., June 2009 © 2009 by Verlag Dr. Friedrich Pfeil, München, Germany – ISSN 0936-9902 Phylogenetic position of the fish genus Ellopostoma (Teleostei: Cypriniformes) using molecular genetic data Jörg Bohlen* and Vendula Šlechtová* We investigated the phylogenetic position of Ellopostoma based on nuclear sequence data (RAG-1 gene). Ellopo- stoma is a member of the superfamily Cobitoidea (loaches) of Cypriniformes, but does not belong to any of the currently recognised families. It represents an independent lineage, recognised as a distinct new family Ellopo- stomatidae, characterized by a squarish and oblique snout, a minute protrusible mouth, a single pair of barbels, large eyes and 35-38 pharyngeal teeth.

Public domain. Available: http://eol.org/data_objects/26779416. (June 2017). 1 Native Range, and Status in the United States Native Range From Froese and Pauly (2017): “Europe: In the Baltic Sea: Swedish coast (including Bothnian Gulf, not in Gotland); in southern Baltic, extending from the Schlei to Gulf of Finland. Southeast North Sea Basin: Ems, Weser and Elbe drainages 1 and small rivers of Schleswig-Holstein and Denmark. Landlocked in several lakes in Poland, Sweden, and Russia.” Status in the United States From Neilson (2017): “Failed introduction.” “A shipment of 409 individuals from Lake Miedwie (formerly Madue Lake), Poland was stocked in Garnder Lake, Michigan in 1877 (Baird 1879; Todd 1983).” Means of Introductions in the United States From Neilson (2017): “Coregonus maraena, along with other species of Coregonus, was intentionally stocked as a food fish by the U.S. Fish Commission (Todd 1983). According to Baird (1879), 1,000 eggs of C. maraena were shipped from Poland to Michigan in 1877 and hatched in captivity at the State Hatching House in Detroit. A total of 409 of the young fish were stocked in Gardner Lake (Baird 1879; Todd 1983). Baird (1879) considered the stocking an experimental introduction of a European food fish.” Remarks From Neilson (2017): “There is much confusion regarding the identity of whitefish imported from Germany in the late 1800s by the U.S. Fish Commission, primarily due to the uncertain taxonomy and systematics of Coregonus (Kottelat and Freyhof 2007). -

Rote Liste Der Fische (Pisces) Österreichs
Rote Liste der Fische (Pisces) Österreichs Georg Wolfram, Ernst Mikschi*‡ Zusammenfassung Die vorliegende Arbeit folgt den Richtlinien zur Fortschreibung der Roten Liste gefähr- deter Tiere Österreichs (Zulka et al. 2001, Umweltbundesamt-Monographien Band 15, Wien). Die aktuelle Checkliste der Fische Österreichs umfasst 84 Taxa. Im Vergleich zur letzten Roten Liste (Spindler et al. 1997, Umweltbundesamt-Monographien Band 87, Wien) wurden einige Taxa aufgrund aktueller nomenklatorischer und taxonomischer Entwicklungen, auf die gesondert eingegangen wird, neu aufgenommen. Zwei Taxa werden als weltweit ausgestorben (Kategorie EX; Extinct) beurteilt, fünf Taxa sind regional ausgestorben (Kategorie RE; Regionally Extinct). In der Gefährdungs- kategorie „Critically Endangered“ (CR, vom Aussterben bedroht) finden sich sechs Ar- ten, 18 in der Kategorie „Endangered“ (EN; stark gefährdet) und 15 in der Kategorie „Vulnerable“ (VU; gefährdet). Neun Arten stehen auf der Vorwarnliste (Kategorie NT; Near Threatened), 17 weitere Arten, also rund ein Fünftel der aufgenommenen Taxa, sind in Österreich der Kategorie „Least Concern“ (LC; nicht gefährdet) zugeordnet. Für drei Taxa mit äußerst unsicherer taxonomischer Situation reicht die Datenlage für eine Ein- stufung nicht aus (Kategorie DD; Data Deficient). Bei weiteren neun in die Checkliste aufgenommenen Arten handelt es sich um überregional verbreitete und reproduzierende Neozoen, die explizit nicht in die Beurteilung im Rahmen der Roten Liste einbezogen werden (Kategorie NE; Not Evaluated). Aufgrund geänderter Definitionen der Gefährdungskategorien ist die vorliegende Ar- beit mit der Roten Liste von Spindler et al. (1997, Umweltbundesamt-Monographien Band 87, Wien) nur bedingt vergleichbar. Die meisten Unterschiede der Gefährdungs- einstufung sind auf methodische Änderungen oder eine geänderte Datenlage zurückzu- führen.
