    Pacific Plate Biogeography, with Special Reference to Shorefishes VICTOR G. SPRINGER m SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 367 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined 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 theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoo/ogy Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

  • Rhinogobius Mizunoi, a New Species of Freshwater Goby (Teleostei: Gobiidae) from Japan
    Bull. Kanagawa prefect. Mus. (Nat. Sci.), no. 46, pp. 79-95, Feb. 2017 79 Original Article Rhinogobius mizunoi, A New Species of Freshwater Goby (Teleostei: Gobiidae) from Japan Toshiyuki Suzuki 1), Koichi Shibukawa 2) & Masahiro Aizawa 3) Abstract. A new freshwater goby, Rhinogobius mizunoi, is described based on six specimens from a freshwater stream in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. The species is distinguished from all congeneric species by the following combination of characters: I, 8 second dorsal-fin rays; 18–20 pectoral-fin rays; 13–18 predorsal scales; 33–35 longitudinal scales; 8 or 9 transverse scales; 10+16=26 vertebrae 26; first dorsal fin elongate in male, its distal tip reaching to base of fourth branched ray of second dorsal fin in males when adpressed; when alive or freshly-collected, cheek with several pale sky spots; caudal fin without distinct rows of dark dots; a pair of vertically- arranged dark brown blotches at caudal-fin base in young and females. Key words: amphidoromous, fish taxonomy, Rhinogobius sp. CO, valid species Introduction 6–11 segmented rays; anal fin with a single spine and 5–11 The freshwater gobies of the genus Rhinogobius Gill, segmented rays; pectoral fin with 14–23 segmented rays; 1859 are widely distributed in the East and Southeast pelvic fin with a single spine and five segmented rays; Asian regions, including the Russia Far East, Japan, 25–44 longitudinal scales; 7–16 transverse scales; P-V 3/ Korea, China, Taiwan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Laos, II II I I 0/9; 10–11+15–18= 25–29 vertebrae; body mostly Cambodia, and Thailand (Chen & Miller, 2014).

  • The Eastern Pacific Species of B a T H Y G O B I U S ( P E Rciformes
    Rev. Biol. Trop. 49 Supl. 1: 141-156, 2001 The Eastern Pacific species of Ba t h y g o b i u s (P e r ciformes : Gobiidae) Peter J. Miller & Sergio Stefanni School of Biological Sciences, The University, Bristol, BS8 1UG, UK. [fax +44 (0) 117 925 7374; e-mail: [email protected]] Received: 17-III-2000 Corrected: 23-XI-2000 Accepted: 8-XII-2000 Abstract: The circumtropical gobiid genus Bathygobius Bleeker is defined and three Eastern Pacific species are redescribed, with first dorsal fin pattern and postorbital blotches being shown to be additional characters of diagnostic value. Two mainland species are recognised, the Mexican-Panamanian B. ramosus Ginsburg 1947 and the Panamanian B. andrei (Sauvage 1880). B. ramosus is now reported from Clarión Island, Revillagigedos, and also from Cocos Island. Meristic variation of ramosus is tabulated for local populations and PCAanalysis of their morphometry suggests regional differentiation in this species, with Tres Marias and Revillagigedos populations clustering away from mainland and Mon- tuosa material. An insular species, B. lineatus (Jenyns 1842) from the Galapagos is defined, with B. arundelii (Garman 1899) from Clipperton Island and B. l. lupinus Ginsburg 1947 from Lobos de Afuera, off Peru, placed as nominal sub- species of lineatus. This species resembles the Indo-west Pacific B. fuscus and Atlantic basin B. soporator more closely than it does ramosus and andrei and may be the product of transpacific dispersal. A similar origin for B. ramosus is dis- cussed but it seems more likely that both B. ramosus and B. andrei have Caribbean sister species.

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). Approximately 2,460 species or 60 percent of the entire reef fish The Bird’s Head Peninsula and surrounding fauna of the Indo-West Pacific inhabits this waters has attracted the attention of naturalists and region, which is commonly referred to as the scientists ever since it was first visited by Coral Triangle (CT).

There are totally 361 recorded species of gobioid fishes belonging to 113 genera, 5 subfamilies, and 9 families. This gobioid fauna of China comprises 16.2% of 2211 known living gobioid species of the world. This report repre- sents a summary of previous researches on the suborder Gobioidei. A recently diagnosed subfamily, Polyspondylogobiinae, were assigned from the type genus and type species: Polyspondylogobius sinen- sis Kimura & Wu, 1994 which collected around the Pearl River Delta with high extremity of vertebral count up to 52-54. The undated comprehensive checklist of gobioid fishes in China will be provided in this paper.

Lakra1 1Division of Fish Genetics and Biotechnology, Central Institute of Fisheries Education, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India and 2Department of Fishery Biology, Kerala University of Fisheries and Ocean Studies, Kochi, Kerala, India Abstract Keywords Gobiids constitute a major proportion of fish population in both tropical and temperate Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I, DNA freshwater as well as marine ecosystem. Due to their small size, cryptic ecology and ambiguous barcoding, gobiid fishes, nucleotide morphological characters, gobiids diversity was not documented completely. In this study, DNA diagnostic characters barcodes were generated for 11 species of gobiids, collected from the Ashtamudi Lake, India. The mitochondrial COI gene was amplified using universal primers and the resulted 650 bp History amplicon was sequenced. The COI barcodes clearly distinguished all the species with high inter- specific genetic distance values than intra-specific values based on K2P (Kimura 2 Parameter) Received 2 May 2013 model. The average genetic distance (K2P model) within species, genus and family was 1.2%, Revised 5 August 2013 22.2% and 25.3%, respectively. In addition to barcode-based species identification system, Accepted 10 August 2013 Nucleotide Diagnostic (ND) characters specific for species were identified.
