Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 9, Issue 4, July/August 2023., 2023 Abstract Among ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii), the crushing, durophagous feeding strategy first evolved in the early Carboniferous period, with the †Eurynotiformes possessing dentitions with single layers of partially to fully fused blunt teeth.

Protein Science, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 Abstract The IL‐6 family of cytokines, known for their pleiotropic behavior, share binding to the gp130 receptor for signal transduction with the necessity to bind other receptors. Leukemia inhibitory factor receptor is triggered by the IL‐6 family proteins: leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), oncostatin‐M (OSM), cardiotrophin‐1 (CT‐1), ciliary ...

Phylogeny and evolutionary history of the amniote egg
Journal of Morphology, Volume 282, Issue 7, Page 1080-1122, July 2021., 2021 We review morphological features of the amniote egg and embryos in a large comparative phylogenetic framework, including all major clades of extant vertebrates. We discuss 40 characters that are relevant for an analysis of the evolutionary history of the vertebrate egg. Special attention is given to the morphology of the cellular yolk sac, the eggshell,

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2018 Larval feeding studies of both ornamental and consumable fish species are important for formulating successful management, and culture strategies for conservation purposes. In the present study, we evaluated prey selectivity for the tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus in the larval stage (first 8 weeks) using the zooplankton Artemia fransiscana, Daphnia

STUDIES ON PYCNODONT FISHES (I): EVALUATION OF THEIR PHYLOGENETIC POSITION AMONG ACTINOPTERYGIANS
Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2015 One of the main pending, unsolved problems concerning the study of the pycnodont fishes is their phylogenetic relationships with other major actinopterygian groups.

Journal of Systematic Palaeontology, 2018 A new genus and new species of ginglymodian is described from the Aptian Grès supérieurs Formation of the Savannakhet Basin, Laos (Lao People's Democratic Republic), found at the Ban Lamthouay locality. The fish is known from a single isolated head, which shows enough diagnostic characters to characterize a new taxon.

Early evolution of the gular musculature and its innervation in ray‐finned fishes
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Gular muscles are an important but often overlooked component of cranial anatomy in bony fishes. They are located on the ventral surface of the head and are derived from the mandibular and hyoid arches. We present a comprehensive review of the gular musculature and its innervation across early diverging actinopterygian lineages. By integrating

Revista de biologia tropical, 2013 In Southeast Mexico, A. tropicus is a species with great ecological, economic, cultural and aquaculture value, however wild populations have diminished due to diverse anthropological causes. The objective of this study was to characterize the reproductive cycle of A.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.
