Reproduction and development of the asian bronze featherback Notopterus notopterus (Pallas, 1769) (Osteoglossiformes, Notopteridae) in captivity [PDF]

Zoosystematics and Evolution, 2017
Experimental data demonstrate that the environmental factors decreasing conductivity, slight variation of temperature, and water level have no influence on gonad development or courtship behavior in Notopterus notopterus.

Diversity of Fish Species in relation to Climatological Fluctuations in a Coastal River of Bangladesh

Journal of Marine Sciences, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
In the Sandha river of Bangladesh, we investigated the temporal and geographical fluctuation in species of fish composition and diversity. The extent of our understanding of the fish variety in this river varies greatly on both a temporal and a geographical scale.

From Chromosomes to Genome: Insights into the Evolutionary Relationships and Biogeography of Old World Knifefishes (Notopteridae; Osteoglossiformes). [PDF]

Genes (Basel), 2018
In addition to its wide geographical distribution, osteoglossiform fishes represent one of the most ancient freshwater teleost lineages; making it an important group for systematic and evolutionary studies. These fishes had a Gondwanan origin and their past distribution may have contributed to the diversity present in this group.

Changes of Land Use and Land Cover with the Diversity of Fishes, Aquatic Plants, and Bird’s Species at Wetland Ecosystem

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Bangladesh is rich in wetland biodiversity with aquatic plants, fishes, and birds. Mohanganj Upazila is known as the capital of lower Bangladesh. The present study focuses on the changes of land use and land cover (LULC) with a diversity of species that are being least concerned (LC), vulnerable (VU), and endangered (EN). Over the last two decades, the

A new electroreceptive teleost:Xenomystus nigri (Osteoglossiformes: Notopteridae) [PDF]

Journal of Comparative Physiology ? A, 1982
The African knife fish,Xenomystus nigri, is found to be sensitive to weak electric fields by the method of averaged evoked potentials from the brain. Slow waves and spikes were recorded in or near the lateral line area of the medulla and the torus semicircularis of the mesencephalon in response to long pulses (best > 50 ms) and low frequency sine waves

Olfactory Sensory Neuron Morphotypes in the Featherback Fish, Notopterus notopterus (Osteoglossiformes: Notopteridae) [PDF]

Annals of Neurosciences, 2014
As in other vertebrates, olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) in fishes are the main components of sensory part of olfactory epithelium that relay olfactory information (smell and taste) to the brain.Objective of the present study was to analyze if any polymorphism occurs in the OSNs in a featherback fish, Notopterus notopterus as far as the teleost ...

Emerging patterns of genome organization in Notopteridae species (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) as revealed by Zoo-FISH and Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH). [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
AbstractNotopteridae (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) represents an old fish lineage with ten currently recognized species distributed in African and Southeastern Asian rivers. Their karyotype structures and diploid numbers remained conserved over long evolutionary periods, since African and Asian lineages diverged approximately 120 Mya.

Distinction of two featherback species (Osteoglossiformes: Notopteridae) in India based on scale structure

Records of the Zoological Survey of India, 2020
The fish species are identified primarily based on their morphological and meristic characters and of late, the molecular markers too have been used for differentiating between different genera and species. Scale morphology and structure has been established as a tool in fish taxonomy.

Ichthyofaunal Diversity and Water Quality in the Kangsabati Reservoir, West Bengal, India

Advances in Zoology, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The ichthyofauna in relation to water quality was studied on monthly basis from March, 2010 to February, 2011 in the Kangsabati Reservoir, West Bengal. The study revealed that physicochemical parameters of Kangsabati Reservoir were congenial for 39 fish species of commercial importance, belonging to 7 orders, 15 families, and 26 genera.
