Successive Losses of Central Immune Genes Characterize the Gadiformes’ Alternate Immunity [PDF]
Great genetic variability among teleost immunomes, with gene losses and expansions of central adaptive and innate components, has been discovered through genome sequencing over the last few years. Here, we demonstrate that the innate Myxovirus resistance gene (Mx) is lost from the ancestor of Gadiformes and the closely related Stylephorus chordatus ...

First report of the rare morid Laemonema robustum (Gadiformes) from the Southwestern Atlantic [PDF]
The poorly known morid Laemonema robustum Johnson, 1862, is reported for the first time from Brazilian marine waters. Morphometric characters are compared with published works and selected vouchers. The known Atlantic Ocean range of the

A fish otolith assemblage from the Late Miocene (Pannonian) deposits of Lake Pannon (Doba, NW Hungary) [PDF]
A fish otolith assemblage consisting of 173 specimens was recovered from littoral sand deposits of the brackish Lake Pannon at Doba, western Hungary. Co-occurring endemic mollusks indicate the Lymnocardium ponticum Zone, thus an age of about 9 million ...

Age, growth and food of the Burbot Lota lota in two eutrophic lakes in southeast
The growth and food of the burbot Lota lota was studied in two neighbouring meso-eutrophic lakes in southeast Norway. The burbot grew slower and reached smaller theoretical maximum lengths in Lake Øgderen than in Lake Rødenes (L∞ = 40.5 cm vs 69.5 cm ...

First record of Physiculus dalwigki (Actinopterygii: Gadiformes: Moridae) from the Tunisian coast (central Mediterranean Sea) [PDF]
A specimen of Physiculus dalwigki Kaup, 1758 measuring 218 mm in total length, 190 mm in standard length, and weighing 90 g was caught off the northern Tunisian coast. This capture constitutes the first record of this fish from the Tunisian coast.

Notes on Norwegian marine Amphipoda 11. Ceradocus torelli (Goes, 1866), a new amphipod for Norway
Several specimens of the circumpolar melitid amphipod Ceradocus torelli (Goes, 1866) were found in stomachs of cod Gadus morhua in Stålvikbotn, N. Norway. These are the first records of this large and spectacular amphipod from Norwegian waters.

Otolith assemblages have rarely been studied across the K-Pg boundary. The late Maastrichtian Kemp Clay of northeastern Texas and the Fox Hills Formation of North Dakota, and the early Danian Clayton Formation of Arkansas therefore offer new insights ...

Kudoa alliaria in flesh of Argentinian hoki Macruronus magellanicus (Gadiformes; Merlucciidae) [PDF]
Myxozoans of the genus Kudoa are widespread parasites of marine fishes and primarily infect the body musculature of their hosts. Although Kudoa species are not usually associated with host mortality, some do form macroscopic cysts in the tissue and some are associated with post mortem tissue degradation.
