A revision of the family Galaxiidae (Pisces) in Tasmania

Marine and Freshwater Research, 1976
Nine species of the genus Galaxias and one species of the genus Paragalaxias are found to be represented in Tasmania. The taxonomy, meristic and morphometric variation of each species is examined and data on the distribution, life history and ecology are presented together with references and synonymy.

Cytotaxonomy of seven species of Galaxias (Pisces: Galaxiidae) in Tasmania

Genetica, 1981
Karyotypes of 7 species of the genus Galaxias in Tasmania are compared and a phylogenetic interpretation of these data offered. Species fall into 3 distinct groups, viz. those with 2n=44 (G. brevipinnis, G. johnstoni and G. fontanus), those with 2n=32 (G. truttaceus, G. tanycephalus and G. auratus), and G. maculatus with 2n=22.

Molecular phylogeny and biogeography of the Tasmanian and New Zealand mudfishes (Salmoniformes : Galaxiidae)

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1997
The phylogenetic affinities of the diadromous Tasmanian mudfish, Galaxias cleaveri , have long been problematic. Some systematists have suggested that this species is closely related to the morphologically similar but non-diadromous New Zealand mudfish genus, Neochanna , while others argued that the similarities represent convergent evolution.

Spawning of Galaxias fasciatus Gray (Salmoniformes: Galaxiidae)

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1982
Abstract For the first time Galaxias fasciatus Gray were observed spawning. The spawning sites were among flooded terrestrial vegetation along the margins of a stream during the peak of a flood. Spawning appeared to be a communal event and the fish were vulnerable to eel

A revision of the Genus Galaxias : (Pisces: Galaxiidae) in Tasmania

1973
Eight species of the genus Galaxias are found to be represented in Tasmania. The taxonomy, meristic and morphometric variation of each species is examined and data on the distribution, life history and ecology of each species are presented together with references and synonomy. Excluding the two genera Paragalaxias and Brachygalaxias, which are outside

Caudal Skeleton in Galaxias and Allied Genera (Teleostei: Galaxiidae)

Copeia, 1999
The caudal skeleton of galaxiid fishes typically comprises a composite main ural centrum (PUI + Ul), an additional small ural centrum U2, a parhypural and five separate hypurals, one epural and two uroneurals; caudal neural and haemal spines are usually broadly flattened.

A Revison of the Genus Paragalaxias Scott (Salmoniformes : Galaxiidae)

Australian Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1978
Paragalaxias dissimilis (Regan), which has not been reported since description from 'New South Wales' in 1905, is shown to be a senior synonym of P. shannonensis Scott, 1935, from Great Lake, Tasmania. Two new species of Parugalaxias, one from Great Lake and another from Arthurs Lake nearby, are described.
