Pelagic records of the lumpsucker, Cyclopterus lumpus L.

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, 1983
Since the development of mid‐water trawls in the mid‐1960s, the lumpsucker, Cyclopterus lumpus, has been found to occur frequently in mid‐water. Records from cruises of English research vessels show that lumpsuckers occur pelagically from the southern North Sea to about 80°N off Spitsbergen, usually in the upper 50–60 m, and often over abyssal depths ...

Taxonomic Status of the Okhotsk Lumpsucker Eumicrotremus ochotonensis (Cyclopteridae, Cottoidei) with Redescription of E. derjugini

Journal of Ichthyology, 2019
The species status is justified for the Okhotsk lumpsucker Eumicrotremus ochotonensis based on the morphological characters. The differences from the closely related species E. derjugini inhabiting the Arctic Ocean are given. Two species were redescribed basing on type series, their diagnoses were clarified, and the lectotypes were designated ...

Dimorphic Fluorescence in the Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker

Ichthyology & Herpetology, 2022
Joining the ranks of vertebrates that glow is the Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker, Eumicrotremus orbis, a subtidal species widely distributed across the North Pacific Ocean. Aside from their charismatic appearance, the Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker is known for its ventral suction disc that is used to stick to substrates amid changing currents and tides.

Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker armor—Development, damage, and defense in the intertidal

Journal of Morphology, 2022
Abstract Predation, combat, and the slings and arrows of an abrasive and high impact environment, represent just some of the biotic and abiotic stressors that fishes are armored against. The Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker ( Eumicrotremus orbis ) found in the subtidal of the ...

Observations on skin colour changes in juvenile lumpsuckers

Journal of Fish Biology, 1995
This study reports on an experimental investigation of colour change in young lumpsuckers Cyclopterus lumpus, employing Munsell colour charts to quantify skin hue, colour value and chroma. Juvenile lumpsuckers can live pelagically close to the sea surface, or can attach to floating seaweed and debris with their suckers.

Relationships and Evolution of Lumpsuckers of the Family Cyclopteridae (Cottoidei)

Journal of Ichthyology, 2020
Phylogenetic morphological, and molecular analysis of lumpsuckers of the family Cyclopteridae is carried out. The cladograms reveal the validity of three subfamilies within the family Cyclopteridae: Cyclopterinae, Aptocyclinae, and Eumicrotrematominae.

Sticky, stickier and stickiest – a comparison of adhesive performance in clingfish, lumpsuckers and snailfish

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2022
ABSTRACTThe coastal waters of the North Pacific are home to the northern clingfish (Gobiesox maeandricus), Pacific spiny lumpsucker (Eumicrotremus orbis) and marbled snailfish (Liparis dennyi) – three fishes that have evolved ventral adhesive discs. Clingfish adhesive performance has been studied extensively, but relatively little is known about the ...

Buoyancy in the LumpsuckerCyclopterus Lumpus

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1986
The lumpsucker or lumpfish,Cyclopterus lumpusL. (Cyclopteridae, Scorpaeniformes), is a cottoid teleost, and, like other fish in its family, exhibits many characteristics of a coastal, bottom-dwelling fish. It is globiform, has no swimbladder, possesses a large abdominal sucker (formed from the pelvic fins), and lays demersal eggs which are brooded by ...

Characteristics of a proteinase from ovarian fluid of the lumpsucker (Cyclopterus Lumpus L.)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1988
1. A proteinase has been isolated from the ovarian fluid of the lumpsucker (Cyclopterus lumpus). 2. The enzyme was purified essentially to homogeneity by a one step purification procedure using anion-exchange chromatography. 3. The mol. wt of the denatured enzyme is approximately 20,000 as judged by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 4. The enzyme
