Feeding-Related Skull Structures of Climbing Perch Anabas testudineus (Anabantidae)

Journal of Ichthyology, 2023
The feeding-related skull structures are described and occluding elements of the upper and lower regions of the buccopharyngeal cavity are analyzed in climbing perch. At each side of the neurocranium, the transverse process of the parasphenoid with four or five large conical teeth oppose the hypobranchial 3, and the medial teeth of the parasphenoid ...

Scanning electron microscopy of the heart of the climbing perch

Journal of Fish Biology, 2001
The air‐breathing climbing perch Anabas testudineus has two ventral aortas, one directs blood through well developed anterior gill arches into the suprabranchial chambers and back to the heart and the other sends blood through rudimentary shunt‐like posterior arches and onto the systemic circulation.

POTENTIAL IMPACTS OF THE ASIAN CLIMBING PERCH ON QUEENSLAND

2008
Risk of establishment of the freshwater climbing perch (Anabas testudineus) in mainland Queensland from the Torres Strait is high. The species is dispersed through human assistance and/or attributes that assist its own spread. The species has the potential to out-compete native freshwater and estuarine species, and has sharp well-developed gill plates ...

Terrestrial locomotion characteristics of climbing perch (Anabas testudineus)

Journal of Experimental Biology
ABSTRACT The evolution and utilization of limbs facilitated terrestrial vertebrate movement on land, but little is known about how other lateral structures enhance terrestrial locomotion in amphibian fishes without terrestrialized limb structures. Climbing perch (Anabas testudineus) exhibit sustained terrestrial locomotion using uniaxial

Perching and vertical climbing: Design of a multimodal robot

2014 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2014
We present a robot capable of both (1) dynam- ically perching onto smooth, flat surfaces from a ballistic trajectory and (2) successfully transitioning to a climbing gait. Merging these two modes of movement is achieved via a mechanism utilizing an opposed grip with directional adhesives.

Accessory respiration in the climbing perch anabas scandens

Hydrobiologia, 1976
Analyses of gas in the chamber of the accessory organ of Anabas scandens were made by keeping the fish forcibly under running or stagnant water for various times upto 15 minutes immediately after it took a fresh gulp of air. The percentage of O2 and CO2 decreased variously as time of submersion increased.

Climbing perch Anabas testudineus avoid expanded polystyrene pellets ingestion

2022
Resumen La perca trepadora Anabas testudineus está muy extendida en las aguas continentales de Vietnam y según su ecología podría tener contacto con un residuo plástico flotante. Los fragmentos de poliestireno expandido (eps) detectados en las aguas dulces de Vietnam en las provincias de Khanh Hoa, Lam Dong y Phu Yen.

Functions of interleukin-6 in ovulation of female climbing perch, Anabas testudineus

Animal Reproduction Science, 2020
In mammals, interleukin 6 (IL-6) has an important function during ovulation, however, the functions of IL-6 in fish have not been elucidated. In the present study, there was quantification of de novo synthesis of ovarian IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) in control and hCG-treated fish and results were compared with those from an in vitro ...

Uptake and elimination of 137Cs by Climbing Perch (Anabus Testudineus)

Health Physics, 1999
This work describes the uptake and retention/biological elimination of 137Cs by climbing perch (Anabus testudineus) under laboratory conditions. The accumulated 137Cs concentration in the whole body of the fish was measured at certain intervals up to 38 d.

Thrust-Assisted Perching and Climbing for a Bioinspired UAV

2016
We present a multi-modal robot that flies, perches and climbs on outdoor surfaces such as concrete or stucco walls. Although the combination of flying and climbing mechanisms in a single platform extracts a weight penalty, it also provides synergies.
