Contrasting population genetic structures of congeneric coastal flounders associated with different early life histories

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine fish species are likely to exhibit little genetic differentiation among populations due to their high dispersal potential during early life stages and migratory nature. However, recent studies have increasingly reported intraspecific genetic differentiation resulting from species‐specific ecological traits, environmental factors, and ...

High trophic niche overlap between sympatric peacock basses (Cichliformes: Cichlidae: Cichla): Concordant findings from three dietary analysis methods

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dietary analysis has contributed to our understanding of animal niches, interspecific interactions, community structure and the flow of matter and energy in food webs. We employed three methods of dietary analysis to estimate trophic niche overlap between two peacock bass species, Cichla cataractae and Cichla ocellaris, across sympatric ...

Solenostomus snuffleupagus sp. nov., a hairy ghost pipefish (Teleostei: Solenostomidae) from the Southwest Pacific, with an integrative comparison to S. paegnius

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new species of ghost pipefish, Solenostomus snuffleupagus sp. nov., is described from the Coral Sea based on specimens (18–34 mm SL) collected from coral reef habitats in Queensland, Australia. The species is diagnosed by the following combination of characters: abundant elongate integumentary filaments imparting a conspicuously shaggy ...

Conservation and management implications of genetic and geometric scale variation in the ancient fish giant featherback (Chitala lopis)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Giant featherback (Chitala lopis) is an ancient species of freshwater fish considered globally extinct until extant populations were re‐discovered in the Sundaland region of Indonesia in 2022. To improve management of the remaining populations, this study used genomic DNA and landmark‐based geometric morphometric analyses of fish scales to ...

DNA barcoding uncovers two putative new species in Trachelyopterus (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Trachelyopterus is a cryptic genus within the Neotropical catfish family Auchenipteridae with a complex history of taxonomic revisions. Despite the notable morphological and genetic similarities among its species, some studies suggest that the genus harbours greater diversity than is currently recognized, including additional species yet to be

Cryptic diversity and recent diversification in the Pyrrhulina australis species complex (Characiformes, Lebiasinidae) revealed by mitochondrial DNA

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pyrrhulina australis Eigenmann & Kennedy, 1903, is widely distributed across the main hydrographic basins of South America. The taxonomic integrity of this species is nevertheless challenged by the lack of clear diagnostic characters, its marked geographic variation and the morphological overlap with its congeners. In this context, the present

Taxonomic inflation in fish systematics: A critical review with illustrative evidence assessment and integrative case study of the Salmo trutta Complex

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fish species are being described at an accelerating rate, but a substantial fraction of recent descriptions rests on evidentiary standards too weak to distinguish genuine species‐level discontinuities from intraspecific variation, local adaptation and the artefacts of single‐marker analyses, a pattern of taxonomic inflation with documented ...

DNA barcoding reveals the presence of Whitson's grenadier, Macrourus whitsoni, in sub‐Antarctic waters of South Georgia, Southern Ocean

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Macrourid species constitute the main bycatch in Southern Ocean toothfish longline fisheries. We report the first confirmed record of Whitson's grenadier, Macrourus whitsoni, in the South Georgia toothfish fishery. Mitochondrial cox1 DNA barcoding confirmed its presence in bycatch samples collected around South Georgia and the northern South ...

Fish Poxviruses on the Rise: Prospects for Aquatic Health

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fish poxviruses are increasingly recognised as emerging pathogens of fish and should be considered in cases of unexplained gill or skin pathology. Carp edema virus (CEV), the causative agent of koi sleepy disease in common carp and koi (Cyprinus carpio), represents the first known example.
