O monofiletismo do grupo, entretanto, é sustentado por um baixo número de sinapomorfias e suas relações internas ainda apresentam conflitos. O status filético e inter-relações das tribos Trachinotini,Scomberoidini, Naucratini e Caranginivariam de acordo com autores e metodologias empregadas na reconstrução evolutiva da família. As propostas morfológicas mais recentes para os Carangidae datam de 30 anos atrás e empregam maciçamente dados de morfologia externa e osteologia, sendo a miologia do grupo praticamente inexplorada. O presente estudo analisou extensamente a miologia facial, gular e das nadadeiras peitorais, pélvicas e caudal dos Carangidae e grupos proximamente relacionados. Novos caracteres de origem miológica foram levantados e analisados sob um paradigma cladístico em conjunto com os demais caracteres morfológicos disponíveis na literatura especializada. Uma nova hipótese filogenética foi proposta e comparada com as disponíveis, tanto baseadas em dados morfológicos como moleculares. Os novos dados miológicos reforçam as hipóteses de monofiletismo das tribos de Carangidae, bem como a presença de dois grandes clados irmãos, um formado por Trachinotinie Scomberoidinie outro por Caranginie Naucratini. O estudo da musculatura também forneceu pistas sobre o posicionamento do historicamente problemático gênero Parastromateus dentro de Carangini. Além disso, a descrição de complexos musculares nunca antes estudados forneceu dados sobre o a evolução de músculos considerados erráticos em Percomorphacea e que podem contribuir para o entendimento das inter-relações deste grande grupo. Palavras-chave: Miologia. Anatomia comparada. Sistemática. Nadadeiras. ABSTRACT The Carangidae Rafinesque 1815 (Teleostei: Percomorphacea: Carangiformes) is traditionally recognized as a monophyletic group in both morphological and molecular hypotheses. The monophyly of the family, however, is supported by a surprisingly low number of synapomorphies and the internal resolution of the group is contentious. The phyletic status and interrelationships of the tribes Trachinotini, Scomberoidini, Naucratini, and Carangini vary across different studies. The most recent morphological hypothesis for carangids dates back to 30 years and is based solely on data from osteology and external morphology. The myology of the family remainednearly unexplored. The present study analyzed the facial, gular,pectoral, pelvic, and caudal muscles of carangids and closely related outgroups. Several characters from myology were discovered and analyzed under a cladistic paradigm. The new myological data were combined with the morphological data available in the literature in order to produce more robust and up to date phylogenetic hypotheses. The four traditional carangid tribes are herein recognized as monophyletic and the family is basally divided into two major sister clades: one comped by Trachinotini and Scomberoidini and another by Carangini and Naucratini. Also, the historically problematic genus Parastromateus was allocated intoaapical clade within the Carangini. The study of the fin musculature provided insights on the occurrence of muscles considered erratic across the Percomorphacea. Those new discoveries might be helpful for a better understanding of the phylogenetic relationships of thatlarge group. Keywords: Myology. Comparative anatomy. Systematics. Fins. Índice 1.

Address correspondence to W. L. Smith at the address above, or e-mail: [email protected]. Abstract Knowledge of evolutionary relationships or phylogeny allows for effective predictions about the unstudied characteristics of species. These include the presence and biological activity of an organism’s venoms. To date, most venom bioprospecting has focused on snakes, resulting in six stroke and cancer treatment drugs that are nearing U.S. Food and Drug Administration review. Fishes, however, with thousands of venoms, represent an untapped resource of natural products. The first step in- volved in the efficient bioprospecting of these compounds is a phylogeny of venomous fishes. Here, we show the results of such an analysis and provide the first explicit suborder-level phylogeny for spiny-rayed fishes. The results, based on ;1.1 million aligned base pairs, suggest that, in contrast to previous estimates of 200 venomous fishes, .1,200 fishes in 12 clades should be presumed venomous.

Teleosts are also the largest and most diverse group of vertebrates, exhibiting an astonishing level of morphological, physiological, and behavioral diversity. Previous studies had indicated that the teleost lineage has experienced an additional whole-genome duplication event. Recent comparative genomic analyses of teleosts and other bony vertebrates using spotted gar (a nonteleost ray-finned fish) and elephant shark (a cartilaginous fish) as outgroups have revealed several divergent features of teleost genomes. These include an accelerated evolutionary rate of protein-coding and nucleotide sequences, a higher rate of intron turnover, and loss of many potential cis-regulatory elements and shorter conserved syntenic blocks. A combination of these divergent genomic features might have contributed to the evolution of the amazing phenotypic diversity and morphological innovations of teleosts. Keywords whole-genome duplication, evolutionary rate, intron turnover, conserved noncoding elements, conserved syntenic blocks, phenotypic diversity INTRODUCTION With over 68,000 known species (IUCN 2017; http://www.iucnredlist.org), vertebrates are the most dominant and successful group of animals on earth, inhabiting both terrestrial and aquatic habitats.

Three sampling stations were set based on the coverage situation of the river and ichthyofauna associated with gill nets were sampled twice monthly from February to July 2018. A total of 3,251 fish specimens, representing 11 orders, 15 families, and 28 species, were captured. The order Perciformes was identified as the most abundant representing five families while the remaining had one family each. The fish family Cichlidae was the most represented with seven species, and other notable families were Alestidae, Clupeidae, and Mugilidae, representing three species each. Prominent among the fish caught monthly included Liza falcipinnis, Mugil cephalus, Sarotherodon melanotheron, Sarotherodon galilaeus, Coptodon guineensis, and Sardinella maderensis. The mean catch per unit effort (CpUE) ranged from 3.15±0.2 to 4.85±0.2 kg unit-1 day-1.

In examinations of 12 639 specimens of 187 species of Venezuelan fishes, the authors found 10 species in three families of isopods (Gnathiids, Gnathia spp. from Diplectrum radiale*, Heteropriacanthus cruentatus*, Orthopristis ruber* and Trachinotus carolinus*; two aegids, Rocinela signata from Dasyatis guttata*, H. cruentatus*, Haemulon auro- lineatum*, H. steindachneri* and O. ruber; and Rocinela sp. from Epinephelus flavolimbatus*; five cymothoids: Anilocra haemuli from Haemulon boschmae*, H. flavolineatum* and H. steindachneri*; Anilocra cf haemuli from Heteropriacanthus cruentatus*; Haemulon bonariense*, O. ruber*, Cymothoa excisa in H. cruentatus*; Cymothoa oestrum in Chloroscombrus chrysurus, H. cruentatus* and Priacanthus arenatus; Cymothoa sp. in O. ruber; Livoneca sp. from H. cruentatus*; and Nerocila fluviatilis from H. cruentatus* and P. arenatus*). The Rocinela sp. and A.
