Systematics and distribution of black swallowers of the genus Chiasmodon (Perciformes: Chiasmodontidae) [PDF]
Black swallowers are revised (the genus Chiasmodon Johns.), and two species (C. niger Johns. and C. lavenbergi Prok.) are recognized as valid in this genus. The nominal taxa Ponerodon vastator Alcock, C. subniger Garman, C. braueri Weber, C. bolangeri Osorio, C. microcephalus Norman, and C. n. pluriradiatus Parr are reduced to synonyms of C.

Characterization of six new complete mitochondrial genomes of Chiasmodontidae (Scombriformes, Percomorpha) and considerations about the phylogenetic relationships of the family [PDF]
The fishes of the Chiasmodontidae family, known as swallower fishes, are species adapted to live in deep seas. Several studies have shown the proximity of this family to Tetragonuridae and Amarsipidae. However, the phylogenetic position of this clade related to other Pelagiaria groups remains uncertain even when phylogenomic studies are employed. Since

Marine water environmental DNA metabarcoding provides a comprehensive fish diversity assessment and reveals spatial patterns in a large oceanic area. [PDF]
eDNA samples provide information on fish diversity in a broad‐scale marine area, detecting almost ten times more fish species compared with pelagic trawling, including some considered elusive or difficult to capture with traditional fishing methods.

Diet and trophic structure of fishes in the Barents Sea: between empty and full stomachs - large individual variability follows a common pattern. [PDF]
Abstract More than 27,000 stomachs from 70 species of fish were collected from the Barents Sea in 2015. Quantitative stomach content expressed relative to the body weight of the predator fish (g g−1 as %) varied by four to five orders of magnitude for six species with the largest sample size (Atlantic cod Gadus morhua, haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus,

Evolutionary origin of the Scombridae (tunas and mackerels): members of a paleogene adaptive radiation with 14 other pelagic fish families. [PDF]
Uncertainties surrounding the evolutionary origin of the epipelagic fish family Scombridae (tunas and mackerels) are symptomatic of the difficulties in resolving suprafamilial relationships within Percomorpha, a hyperdiverse teleost radiation that ...

Morphometrics, ovary structure, and parasites of Chiasmodon harteli (Actinopterygii: Trachiniformes: Chiasmodontidae) from off south-eastern Greenland [PDF]
Background. Chiasmodon harteli Melo, 2009 is a rarely captured deepwater fish. Even though the taxonomy of this genus is fairly well resolved, very little is known about the biology of individual Chiasmodon species.

DNA “metaBARFcoding” was used in conjunction with DNA barcoding to augment morphological identification of prey in highly digested regurgitations from Christmas shearwaters Puffinus nativitatis at Hōlanikū, Hawaiʻi. The metabarcoding technique identified 87 unique taxa from 29 families of fish and squid, spanning diverse taxa, including families of ...
