Phylogenetic Classification of Living and Fossil Ray-Finned Fishes (Actinopterygii)

Bulletin of the Peabody Museum of Natural History
Classification of the tremendous diversity of ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) began with the designation of taxonomic groups based on morphological similarity. Starting in the late 1960s morphological phylogenetics became the basis for the classification of Actinopterygii but failed to resolve many relationships, particularly among lineages within ...

Comprehensive phylogeny of ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) based on transcriptomic and genomic data [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
Significance Ray-finned fishes form the largest and most diverse group of vertebrates. Establishing their phylogenetic relationships is a critical step to explaining their diversity. We compiled the largest comparative genomic database of fishes that provides genome-scale support for previous phylogenetic results and used it to resolve ...

Phylogeography of the widely distributed John Dory (Zeus faber, Actinopterygii: Zeiformes) reaffirms the prevalence of at least two deeply divergent clades

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The John Dory Zeus faber is a commercially exploited demersal fish species with a known distribution ranging from the Northeast Atlantic to parts of the Indian and Pacific oceans. A previous genetic survey using cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) DNA barcodes suggested the presence of two geographically segregated taxonomic units within Z ...

Marine water environmental DNA metabarcoding provides a comprehensive fish diversity assessment and reveals spatial patterns in a large oceanic area

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Current methods for monitoring marine fish (including bony fishes and elasmobranchs) diversity mostly rely on trawling surveys, which are invasive, costly, and time‐consuming.

The dental plate on bichir pectoral fins: A unique dermal skeletal element bearing individual odontodes with tooth‐like replacement

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Pectoral fins of bichirs encompass the so‐called dental plates – unique dermal skeletal elements with individual odontodes identical to the oral teeth. Abstract The dermal skeleton appeared early in vertebrate evolution in the form of mineralized skin denticles composed of tooth‐like units—odontodes.

Fish hatchering and its effects on the morphology of Prochilodus lineatus (Actinopterygii: Prochilodontidae) [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2016
Abstract The fish stocking in captivity for later release into natural water bodies has historically been applied in Brazil, as a measure to mitigate impacts caused by dams. However, the released fish are adapted to the hatchery environment, which is totally different from the natural, which results in low post-release survival rates and ...

Environmental DNA highlights fish biodiversity in mesophotic ecosystems

Environmental DNA, 2023
Mesophotic marine ecosystems are characterized by lower light penetration supporting specialized fish fauna. Due to their depths (−30–−150 m), accessibility is challenging, and the structure of mesophotic fish assemblages is generally less known than ...

Participatory citizen science data complements agency‐collected data for species inventories

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/March 2026.
Citizen science data from iNaturalist and eBird can make meaningful contributions in complementing state agency‐derived species inventories of state parks in Florida. Agency data and citizen science data overlap in the species they document and each provides novel species in different parks.
