  • Suborder BLENNIOIDEI TRIPTERYGIIDAE
    click for previous page 3532 Bony Fishes Suborder BLENNIOIDEI TRIPTERYGIIDAE Triplefins by J.T. Williams and R. Fricke iagnostic characters: Small, slender fishes (seldom longer than 5 cm). Cirri often present on top of Deye and on rim of anterior nostril. Upper and lower jaws each with broad band of conical teeth. Three well-defined dorsal fins, the first with III to X (III or IV in the area) spines, the second with VIII to XXVI spines, the third with 7 to 17 segmented rays; last dorsal-fin spine and first segmented ray borne on separate pterygiophores; anal fin with 0 to II spines and 14 to 32 segmented rays; caudal fin with 13 segmented rays, 9 of which are branched; pelvic fins with 2 (3 in Lepidoblennius) simple segmented rays and I embedded spine, the fin inserted anterior to pectoral-fin base. Ctenoid (cycloid in 1 species of Lepidoblennius) scales on body. Colour: highly variable, often showing sexual dichromatism; frequently with irregular bars or a mottled pattern; males may have reddish pigmentation and/or black areas on head and body, females usually mottled with brown or green. 3 dorsal fins ctenoid scales branched anterior insertion caudal-fin of pelvic fins rays Habitat, biology, and fisheries: Benthic, cryptic fishes occurring on rocky or coral substrates in shallow water, but some species are found as deep as 550 m. They are very abundant in littoral areas, but are rarely utilized commercially because of their small size. Of little commercial interest, but they have been found in Indonesian fish markets. Similar families occurring in the area Blenniidae: body always naked (scaly in Tripterygiidae); a single row of incisors in each jaw (Tripterygiidae with several rows of conical teeth, at least anteriorly in jaws); dorsal fin consisting of a single continuous fin, often deeply notched between spinous and segmented rays (3 clearly defined dorsal fins in Tripterygiidae); dorsal fin with more, a few Blenniidae species with 0 to 3 less, segmented than spinous rays (more spines than rays in Tripterygiidae).

  • 7-Day / 6-Night Itinerary: Maumere to Alor Alor
    Ultimate Indonesian Yachts 7-DAY / 6-NIGHT ITINERARY: MAUMERE TO ALOR Embark on a 7-day sailing sojourn in the mysterious Alor archipelago. This journey begins in Maumere and ends in Alor. ALOR ARCHIPELAGO The Alor archipelago is a series of rugged, volcanic islands stretching east of Bali, Sumbawa and Flores. It is perhaps most notable for its cultural diversity – the small archipelago is home to no less than 100 communities speaking 8 languages and 52 dialects. Dutch settlers fixed local rajas in the coastal areas after 1908, but were unable to penetrate the interior with its notorious fierce headhunters up until as late as the 1950s. This little-visited area remains known for its enduring indigenous animist traditions and the highland villages with their Moko drums. The many small villages in the vicinity are home to a welcoming and curious people, and visitors may also come across local spear fishermen sporting wooden framed goggles, setting traditional woven fish traps on the reefs. Among the islands surrounding Alor, deep channels make up part of the migratory route for many types of whales and the underwater landscape features breathtaking walls and coral gardens occupied by large schools of fish. These waters are notorious for powerful currents, particularly in the narrow straits between Pantar, Alor and Lembata, attracting predators from the deep. Off the Alor coast, Komba Island is home to the very active Batu Tara volcano, which billows smoke every half hour. www.ultimate-indonesian-yachts.com Ultimate Indonesian Yachts SAMPLE ITINERARY DAY 1: MAUMERE Upon arrival at the airport, you will be collected by your crew and transferred to your private yacht.

GOMON SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 177 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available.

E-mail: [email protected] 2 Conservation International Indonesia Marine Program. Jl. Dr. Muwardi No. 17, Renon, Denpasar 80235 Indonesia. Abstract A checklist of shallow (to 60 m depth) reef fishes is provided for the Bird’s Head Peninsula region of West Papua, Indonesia. The area, which occupies the extreme western end of New Guinea, contains the world’s most diverse assemblage of coral reef fishes. The current checklist, which includes both historical records and recent survey results, includes 1,511 species in 451 genera and 111 families. Respective species totals for the three main coral reef areas – Raja Ampat Islands, Fakfak-Kaimana coast, and Cenderawasih Bay – are 1320, 995, and 877. In addition to its extraordinary species diversity, the region exhibits a remarkable level of endemism considering its relatively small area. A total of 26 species in 14 families are currently considered to be confined to the region. Introduction and finally a complex geologic past highlighted The region consisting of eastern Indonesia, East by shifting island arcs, oceanic plate collisions, Timor, Sabah, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, and widely fluctuating sea levels (Polhemus and the Solomon Islands is the global centre of 2007). reef fish diversity (Allen 2008).

  • Annotated Checklist of the Fish Species (Pisces) of La Réunion, Including a Red List of Threatened and Declining Species
    Stuttgarter Beiträge zur Naturkunde A, Neue Serie 2: 1–168; Stuttgart, 30.IV.2009. 1 Annotated checklist of the fish species (Pisces) of La Réunion, including a Red List of threatened and declining species RONALD FR ICKE , THIE rr Y MULOCHAU , PA tr ICK DU R VILLE , PASCALE CHABANE T , Emm ANUEL TESSIE R & YVES LE T OU R NEU R Abstract An annotated checklist of the fish species of La Réunion (southwestern Indian Ocean) comprises a total of 984 species in 164 families (including 16 species which are not native). 65 species (plus 16 introduced) occur in fresh- water, with the Gobiidae as the largest freshwater fish family. 165 species (plus 16 introduced) live in transitional waters. In marine habitats, 965 species (plus two introduced) are found, with the Labridae, Serranidae and Gobiidae being the largest families; 56.7 % of these species live in shallow coral reefs, 33.7 % inside the fringing reef, 28.0 % in shallow rocky reefs, 16.8 % on sand bottoms, 14.0 % in deep reefs, 11.9 % on the reef flat, and 11.1 % in estuaries. 63 species are first records for Réunion. Zoogeographically, 65 % of the fish fauna have a widespread Indo-Pacific distribution, while only 2.6 % are Mascarene endemics, and 0.7 % Réunion endemics. The classification of the following species is changed in the present paper: Anguilla labiata (Peters, 1852) [pre- viously A. bengalensis labiata]; Microphis millepunctatus (Kaup, 1856) [previously M. brachyurus millepunctatus]; Epinephelus oceanicus (Lacepède, 1802) [previously E. fasciatus (non Forsskål in Niebuhr, 1775)]; Ostorhinchus fasciatus (White, 1790) [previously Apogon fasciatus]; Mulloidichthys auriflamma (Forsskål in Niebuhr, 1775) [previously Mulloidichthys vanicolensis (non Valenciennes in Cuvier & Valenciennes, 1831)]; Stegastes luteobrun- neus (Smith, 1960) [previously S.

  • Van Galen's Memorandum on the Alor Islands in 1946. an Annotated
    14 HumaNetten Nr 25 Våren 2010 Van Galen’s memorandum on the Alor Islands in 1946. An annotated translation with an introduction. Part 1. Av Hans Hägerdal Among the 17,000 islands of Indonesia, the Alor Islands are among the lesser known, but far from the least interesting. For the modern tourist they are primarily known as an excel- lent diving resort, that attracts a modest but devoted group of Westerners each year. For art historians their fame rests on the moko, the hourglass-shaped bronze drums that were once found all over the islands. Students of anthropology may know Alor via the well-known monograph of Cora Du Bois, The People of Alor (1944). Linguists find the plethora of local languages, at least fifteen in number, intriguing, the more so since speakers of Austronesian and Papuan languages meet here. And avid readers of tropical travel literature may have en- countered the islands as the supposed abode of ferocious cannibals and headhunters. To put it briefly, the Alor Islands are situated in the Nusa Tenggara Timur province of eastern Indonesia, north of Timor and east of Flores and the Solor Islands. They consist of two larger islands, Alor and Pantar, and some smaller ones. The mountainous islands cover an area which is about half of Bali’s, with a mixed population of Christians and Muslims. As is the case with much of Indonesia’s history outside Java, the past of this little archipelago is fragmentarily known up to the nineteenth century. Knowledge of the written word was utterly limited until modern times, and scholars have to piece Alorese history together from indigenous oral tradition, accounts by foreigners, and linguistic and archaeological data.

A total of 1656 fish species under two classes, 40 orders, 191 families and 683 geranra reported from marine and estuarine waters of Tamil Nadu. In the checklist, 1075 fish species were primary marine water and remaining 581 species were diadromus. In total, 128 species were reported under class Elasmobranchii (11 orders, 36 families and 70 genera) and 1528 species under class Actinopterygii (29 orders, 155 families and 613 genera). The top five order with diverse species composition were Perciformes (932 species; 56.29% of the total fauna), Tetraodontiformes (99 species), Pleuronectiforms (77 species), Clupeiformes (72 species) and Scorpaeniformes (69 species). At the family level, the Gobiidae has the greatest number of species (86 species), followed by the Carangidae (65 species), Labridae (64 species) and Serranidae (63 species). Fishery status assessment revealed existence of 1029 species worth for capture fishery, 425 species worth for aquarium fishery, 84 species worth for culture fishery, 242 species worth for sport fishery and 60 species worth for bait fishery.
