Phylogenetic relationships among atheriniform fishes (Teleostei: Atherinomorpha) [PDF]
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1996 We present evidence from adult and larval morphology for the monophyly and relationships of Atheriniformes, using other atherinomorphs, mugilids and acanthomorph fishes as outgroups. Atheriniformes is diagnosed by ten characters (larval: short preanal length, single mid-dorsal row of melanophores; adult: vomerine ventral face concave, long A1 muscle ...

Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022 Abstract Citizen science (CS) expands the spatial and temporal scale of alien species records. As such, it has been recognized as a complementary tool in alien species management and large‐scale biodiversity conservation. The present study assessed the contribution of CS to the recording of marine alien fishes and mollusks in European marine waters by ...

Ecology Letters, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 1569-1581, August 2021., 2021 Establishing environmental predictors of body size is of fundamental importance to ecology. With data from over 27,000 species of fishes, I establish general size rules between the major aquatic habitat types, revealing that various marine‐influenced environments contain larger taxa than those in freshwaters.

Embryonic growth and trophotaenial development in goodeid fishes (Teleostei: Atheriniformes) [PDF]
Journal of Morphology, 1988 AbstractEmbryonic growth and trophotaenial development are examined in two species of goodeid fish, Ameca splendens and Goodea atripinnis. During gestation of A. splendens, embryonic dry mass may increase from 0.21 mg at the onset of development to 31.70 mg at term. In G. atripinnis, embryonic dry mass ranges from 0.25 mg at the onset of development to

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 Habitat use is different along the ontogenetic development of some species and may be influenced by environmental parameters. This study described the interaction of Atherinella brasiliensis caught in intertidal areas of the Paranaguá Estuarine Complex ...

Identification of Putative Nuclear Receptors and Steroidogenic Enzymes in Murray-Darling Rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis) Using RNA-Seq and De Novo Transcriptome Assembly. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Murray-Darling rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis [Castelnau, 1878]; Atheriniformes: Melanotaeniidae) is a small-bodied teleost currently under development in Australasia as a test species for aquatic toxicological studies.

A Duplicated, Truncated amh Gene Is Involved in Male Sex Determination in an Old World Silverside
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017 A master sex-determining gene, the Y chromosome-linked anti-Müllerian hormone (amhy) gene, has been described in two New World atheriniform species but little is known on the distribution, evolution, and function(s) of this gene in other Atheriniformes ...

Density dependence mediates the ecological impact of an invasive fish
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 26, Issue 7, Page 867-880, July 2020., 2020 Abstract Aim The way in which habitat heterogeneity and predator density affect predator–prey dynamics, space use and prey risk are understudied aspects of foraging ecology, particularly for invasive species. Likewise, how an invasive species’ impact scales with its abundance is poorly understood.

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1214-1239, July 2020., 2020 Abstract Wild, asexual, vertebrate hybrids have many characteristics that make them good model systems for studying how genomes evolve and epigenetic modifications influence animal physiology. In particular, the formation of asexual hybrid lineages is a form of reproductive incompatibility, but we know little about the genetic and genomic mechanisms by
