Fisheries Trade and Blue Nutrient Flows in Pacific Island Countries

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 466-477, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Pacific Island Countries (PICs) are located in highly productive fishing regions that supply nutrient‐rich fish to global markets. Marine fisheries are a critical source of protein and essential micronutrients for billions of people worldwide, supporting both local diets and global food security.

A New Deep-water Snailfish, Paraliparis anomalus (Teleostei: Liparidae) from the Western North Pacific off Honshu, Japan

Species Diversity
A new deep-water snailfish, Paraliparis anomalus, is described from two specimens collected off eastern Honshu Island, Japan (635–687 m depth). It can be distinguished from congeners by the following combination of characters: vertebrae 67 (9 + 58), a ...

Tanyrhinichthys mcallisteri, a long-rostrumed Pennsylvanian ray-finned fish (Actinopterygii) and the simultaneous appearance of novel ecomorphologies in Late Palaeozoic fishes

, 2020
The Carboniferous radiation of fishes was marked by the convergent appearance of then-novel but now common ecomorphologies resulting from changes in the relative proportions of traits, including elongation of the front of the skull (rostrum).

Modelling Palaeodistributions in Marine Environments: A Review

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This scoping review (ScR) synthesises the current literature on the application of Species Distribution Models (SDM) to past marine environments. We assess how these models have been used to reconstruct past environmental suitability, track biogeographical shifts and investigate long‐term ecological dynamics, while identifying key ...

Dercetid fishes from the Maastrichtian type area (Upper Cretaceous) of Belgium and the Netherlands

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica
The family Dercetidae comprises a diverse array of marine aulopiform actinopterygians. Until now, merely seven specimens, assigned to five species, were recorded from the Maastrichtian type area.

Ontogeny and potential function of poacher armor (Actinopterygii: Agonidae)

Journal of Morphology, 2020
AbstractMany vertebrates are armored over all or part of their body. The armor may serve several functional roles including defense, offense, visual display, and signal of experience/capability. Different roles imply different tradeoffs; for example, defensive armor usually trades resistance to attack for maneuverability.

Inferring Time‐to‐Speciation From Hybrid Zone Analysis Informs Assessments of Taxonomic Inflation

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Measuring gene flow across hybrid zones can provide a direct evaluation of reproductive isolation (RI) between evolutionary divergent lineages. Geographic‐explicit modelling of gene flow across hybrid zones, known as cline analysis, thus offers a gold standard for species delimitation under the biological species criterion.

Complete mitochondrial DNA genomes for two northeast Pacific mesopelagic fishes, the Mexican lampfish (Triphoturus mexicanus) and black-belly dragonfish (Stomias atriventer)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
Mesopelagic fishes are an important component of marine ecosystems, providing an important link between lower and higher trophic levels. This group of fishes is also highly abundant and make up a large portion of the marine vertebrate biomass.

Intruder (DD38E), a recently evolved sibling family of DD34E/Tc1 transposons in animals

Mobile DNA, 2020
Background A family of Tc1/mariner transposons with a characteristic DD38E triad of catalytic amino acid residues, named Intruder (IT), was previously discovered in sturgeon genomes, but their evolutionary landscapes remain largely unknown. Results Here,
