Dorsal fin continuous, with X spines and 11 to 17 soft rays, notched between spinous and soft portions; anal fin with III spines and 5 to 7 (usually 6) soft rays; pectoral fins with 14 rays, the lower 5 to 7 rays unbranched and usually enlarged, with the membranes deeply incised; pelvic fins with I spine and 5 soft rays. Principal caudal-fin rays 15. Branchiostegal rays 6. Scales cycloid. Swimbladder absent. Vertebrae 26. Colour: variable with species. cirri lower pectoral-fin rays thickened and unbranched Remarks: The hawkfish family consists of 10 genera and 38 species, 33 of which occur in the Indo-Pacific region; 19 species are found in the Western Central Pacific. Habitat, biology, and fisheries: Cirrhitids are bottom-dwelling fishes of coral reefs or rocky substrata; the majority occur in shallow water. They use their thickened lower pectoral-fin rays to wedge themselves in position in areas subject to surge. All species are carnivorous, feeding mainly on benthic crustaceans.

The results supported the hypothesis of differential use of food resources among tropical and higher latitude reef fishes, i.e. the number of species and relative abundance of fishes relying on relatively low-quality food significantly decreased from tropical to temperate latitudes. The species : genus ratio of low-quality food consumers increased toward the tropics, and was higher than the overall ratio considering all fishes in the assemblages. This supports the view that higher speciation rates occurred among this guild of fishes in warm waters. It was also demonstrated that density of herbivorous fishes (the dominant group relying on low-quality food resources) in the western Atlantic decreased from tropical to temperate latitudes. Spatial use and mobility varied with latitude and consequently reef type and complexity. Fishes with small-size home ranges predominated on tropical coral reefs. # 2004 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles Key words: community structure; herbivory; latitudinal gradient; macroecology; reef fishes.

  • Metabarcoding Dietary Analysis of Coral Dwelling Predatory Fish Demonstrates the Minor Contribution of Coral Mutualists to Their Highly Partitioned, Generalist Diet
    Metabarcoding dietary analysis of coral dwelling predatory fish demonstrates the minor contribution of coral mutualists to their highly partitioned, generalist diet Matthieu Leray1,2,3 , Christopher P. Meyer3 and Suzanne C. Mills1,2 1 USR 3278 CRIOBE CNRS-EPHE-UPVD, CBETM de l’Universite´ de Perpignan, Perpignan Cedex, France 2 Laboratoire d’Excellence “CORAIL” 3 Department of Invertebrate Zoology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C., USA ABSTRACT Understanding the role of predators in food webs can be challenging in highly diverse predator/prey systems composed of small cryptic species. DNA based dietary analysis can supplement predator removal experiments and provide high resolution for prey identification. Here we use a metabarcoding approach to provide initial insights into the diet and functional role of coral-dwelling predatory fish feeding on small invertebrates. Fish were collected in Moorea (French Polynesia) where the BIOCODE project has generated DNA barcodes for numerous coral associated invertebrate species. Pyrosequencing data revealed a total of 292 Operational Taxonomic Units (OTU) in the gut contents of the arc-eye hawkfishParacirrhites ( arcatus), the flame hawkfishNeocirrhites ( armatus) and the coral croucher (Caracanthus maculatus). One hundred forty-nine (51%) of them had species-level matches in reference libraries (>98% similarity) while 76 additional OTUs (26%) could be identified to higher taxonomic levels. Decapods that have a mutualistic relationship with Pocillopora and are typically dominant among coral branches, represent a minor Submitted 7 April 2015 contribution of the predators’ diets. Instead, predators mainly consumed transient Accepted 2 June 2015 species including pelagic taxa such as copepods, chaetognaths and siphonophores Published 25 June 2015 suggesting non random feeding behavior.

ZooKeys 550: 261–281. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.550.10009 Abstract For more than 250 years, the taxonomic enterprise has remained almost unchanged. Certainly, the tools of the trade have improved: months-long journeys aboard sailing ships have been reduced to hours aboard jet airplanes; advanced technology allows humans to access environments that were once utterly inacces- sible; GPS has replaced crude maps; digital hi-resolution imagery provides far more accurate renderings of organisms that even the best commissioned artists of a century ago; and primitive candle-lit micro- scopes have been replaced by an array of technologies ranging from scanning electron microscopy to DNA sequencing. But the basic paradigm remains the same. Perhaps the most revolutionary change of all – which we are still in the midst of, and which has not yet been fully realized – is the means by which taxonomists manage and communicate the information of their trade.

Numerous studies based on analysis of their morphology and genetic makeup frequently provided controversial results. In the present work, we sequenced complete mitochondrial (mt) genomes and fragments of nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) of the fourhorn sculpin Myoxocephalus quadricornis and some related cottids to increase the power of phylogenetic and taxonomic analyses of this complex fish group. A comparison of the My. quadricornis mt genomes obtained by us with other complete mt genomes available in GenBank has revealed a surprisingly low divergence (3.06 0.12%) with Megalocottus platycephalus ± and, at the same time, a significantly higher divergence (7.89 0.16%) with the species of the genus ± Myoxocephalus. Correspondingly, phylogenetic analyses have shown that My. quadricornis is clustered with Me.
