E-Mail: [email protected] Abstract Upeneus stenopsis n. sp. is described based on four specimens collected off northern Australia and Quezon Island, Philippines, at depths between 165 to 275 m and compared with four closely related species: the deep-water dwelling Upeneus davidaromi (Red Sea) and U. mascareinsis (Western Indian Ocean) and the shallow Indo-West Pacific species, U. subvittatus and U. vittatus. The new species can be distinguished from all other Upeneus species by a narrow caudal peduncle and a combination of morphometric and meristic characters. This is the first record of a deep-water goatfish of the genus Upeneus from the Pacific. A juvenile Upeneus collected off Quezon at 127–142 m depth was also assigned to the new species and compared to four similar-sized (69–79 mm SL) specimens of U. mascareinsis. A diagnosis is provided for U. subvittatus, along with evidence of its occurrence in the Eastern Indian Ocean and interspecific comparisons. The continued need to screen scientific fish collections for the occurrence of undescribed species that have successfully colonized and adapted to the depth zone surrounding the ocean margin is outlined.

(2019). Diversity and length-weight relationships of Blenniid Species (Actinopterygii, Blenniidae) from Mediterranean Brackish Waters in Turkey. Aquatic Sciences and Engineering, 34(3), 96-102. ABSTRACT This study aims to determine the species composition and range of Mediterranean Blennies (Ac- tinopterygii, Blenniidae) occurring in river estuaries and lagoon systems of the Mediterranean coast of Turkey, and to characterise the length–weight relationship of the specimens. A total of 15 sites were surveyed from November 2014 to June 2017. A total of 210 individuals representing 3 fish species (Rusty blenny-Parablennius sanguinolentus, Freshwater blenny-Salaria fluviatilis and Peacock blenny-Salaria pavo) were sampled from five (Beşgöz Creek Estuary, Manavgat River Es- tuary, Karpuzçay Creek Estuary, Köyceğiz Lagoon Lake and Beymelek Lagoon Lake) of the locali- ties investigated. The high juvenile densities of S. fluviatilis in Karpuzçay Creek Estuary and P. sanguinolentus in Beşgöz Creek Estuary were observed. Various threat factors were observed in five different native habitats of Blenny species. The threats on the habitat and the population of the species include the introduction of exotic species, water ORCID IDs of the authors: pollution, and more importantly, the destruction of habitats. Five non-indigenous species (Prus- D.İ.: 0000-0002-1686-0959 sian carp-Carassius gibelio, Eastern mosquitofish-Gambusia holbrooki, Redbelly tilapia-Copt- 1Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy odon zillii, Stone moroko-Pseudorasbora parva and Rainbow trout-Oncorhynchus mykiss) were University, Department of Biology, observed in the sampling sites.

A survey carried out around Cyprus during September 2014 documented the occurrence of 25 alien fishes. Seven Lessepsian migrants ( Hippocampus fuscus Rüppell, 1838, Nemipterus randalli Russell, 1986, Ostorhinchus fasciatus (Shaw, 1790), Parupeneus forsskali (Fourmanoir & Guézé, 1976), Pomadasys stridens (Forsskål, 1775), Sphyraena obtusata Cuvier, 1829 and Spratelloides delicatulus (Bennett, 1832)) were recorded for the first time, increasing to 35 the number of alien fishes recorded around the island. Four of these first records can be considered as 'established', whereas the 2013 first record of Pterois volitans/miles is confirmed by new findings placing the species as newly 'established' in Cyprus. All the recorded alien fishes of Cyprus are Lessepsian migrants, 80% of which can be considered established and four of them are invasive. The rapid increase of alien fish species over time in Cyprus supports the accelerating tropicalisation process observed elsewhere in the Mediterranean over the last decades.

Box 1870 Nordnes, N-5817 Bergen, Norway. E-mail: [email protected] 2South African Institute of Aquatic Biodiversity, Grahamstown, South Africa 1Corresponding author Abstract A new goatfish, Upeneus saiab n. sp. (Mullidae), is described from six specimens collected off Angoche, northern Mo- zambique, during a research cruise of the RV Dr. F. Nansen in August 2009. Upeneus saiab n. sp. differs from all conge- neric species in the following combination of characteristics: seven dorsal-fin spines, 29 total gill rakers, body depth at anal-fin origin 17–19% SL, and pectoral-fin length 20–21% SL. Detailed comparisons with the eight other species of the japonicus group are made and a key for Western Indian Ocean species is provided. A new record of Upeneus pori for Kwa- Zulu-Natal, South Africa, is reported based on in situ photographs. The need for further exploration of the rather long and ecologically diverse Mozambican coast and adjacent areas of southeastern Africa for the occurrence of yet undescribed or unreported goatfish species is emphasized. Key words: Upeneus saiab, new species, Upeneus pori, new record, japonicus species group, coastal habitats Introduction Over its entire range of ca 2 750 km in length, the Mozambican coast is ecologically fragmented and diverse as a result of changing coastline, shelf width and bottom structure, and local incidences of upwelling, river runoffs, estuaries, islands, banks, coral reefs, mangrove forests, and seagrass beds (e.g., Lutjeharms 2006; ASCLME 2012; http://earthtrends.wri.org/).

The new species can be dis- tinguished from all other congeneric species by the combination of four characters: number of gill rakers on lower limb, caudal-peduncle depth, interorbital length, and interdorsal distance. Strong allometric variation in body form between the holotype and the four smaller paratypes was found. Based on the lack of lateral body stripes, a rather narrow caudal pe- duncle depth, and large eyes in adults as common characteristics for U.

    Mediterranean invasive species factsheet www.iucn-medmis.org Species report Upeneus molluccensis (Goldband goatfish) AFFILIATION FISHES SCIENTIFIC NAME AND COMMON NAME REPORTS Upeneus molluccensis 6 Key Identifying Features from the eye to the tail. This is a medium-sized fish up to 20 cm in length (commonly 7–18 cm) with an elongated, moderately compressed body. It has a rounded snout with two short, thin barbels. Two well-separated dorsal fins are present; the first of them has 8 spines (the first spine is minute and the second spine is the largest), while the second fin has 8–9 soft rays, directly above the anal fin (which has 1 spine and 6–8 soft rays). Between the two dorsal fins there are 5–7 scales. The tail fin is deeply forked, the upper lobe marked with diagonal black bars. The dorsal colour is pinkish-red, and the belly is white. A distinct longitudinal yellow stripe runs 2013-2021 © IUCN Centre for Mediterranean Cooperation.

The karyotype of Upeneus Accepted 25 December 2015 moluccensis from the north-eastern Mediterranean was investigated through conventional KEYWORDS Giemsa staining, Ag-NOR staining, C-banding and GTG-banding techniques. The results showed C-banding; Ag-NOR staining; 2n = 44 (FN = 46), 2m + 2st + 40a chromosomes and four NORs. Two telomeric C-band regions GTG-banding; Mullidae; cell were observed on a metacentric and subtelocentric chromosome pair.
