Bony labyrinth morphology in early neopterygian fishes (Actinopterygii: Neopterygii) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, 2016
ABSTRACTEndocasts of the osseous labyrinth have the potential to yield information about both phylogenetic relationships and ecology. Although bony labyrinth morphology is well documented in many groups of fossil vertebrates, little is known for early Neopterygii, the major fish radiation containing living teleosts, gars and the bowfin.

Phylogenetic analyses of ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) using collagen type I protein sequences [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) are the largest and most diverse group of vertebrates, comprising over half of all living vertebrate species. Phylogenetic relationships between ray-finned fishes have historically pivoted on the study of morphology, which has notoriously failed to resolve higher order relationships, such as within the percomorphs ...

Grass Carp, the White Amur: Ctenopharyngodon idella Cuvier and Valenciennes (Actinopterygii: Cyprinidae: Squaliobarbinae)

open access: yesEDIS, 2014
The grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella Cuvier and Valenciennes, was imported to the U.S. in 1963 as a biological control agent for hydrilla (Hydrilla verticilliata (L.f.) Royle) and other aquatic plants.

Developmental changes of opsin gene expression in ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii)

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2022
AbstractFish often change their habitat and trophic preferences during development. Dramatic functional differences between embryos, larvae, juveniles and adults also concern sensory systems, including vision. Here we focus on the photoreceptors (rod and cone cells) in the retina and their gene expression profiles during the development.

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

open access: yes, 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).

Diet composition and food overlap of Acestrorhynchus britskii and A. lacustris (Characiformes: Acestrorhynchidae) from Sobradinho reservoir, São Francisco river, Bahia State - doi: 10.4025/actascibiolsci.v33i4.7240

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2011
Fish diet studies contribute to understanding resource partitioning and community trophic structure. The present paper characterizes the diet of “peixe-cachorro” species Acestrorhynchus britskii and A.
