Underwater Photographic Survey of Coastal Fish Community of Terra Nova Bay, Ross Sea

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Although the extent of near-shore and coastal habitats around the Antarctic Continent is limited, they host an abundant and diversified fish fauna dominated by notothenioids.

On the Taxonomic Status of the Red Icefish Channichthys rugosus (Notothenioidei: Channichthyidae) from the Kerguelen Islands (South Ocean)

open access: yesProceedings of the Zoological Institute RAS, 2021
The presented work is the final part of the taxonomic revision of the Antarctic icefishes of the genus Channichthys Richardson, 1844 (Notothenioidei: Channichthyidae) from the Kerguelen Islands, the species composition of which was discussed until ...

Pathways to polar adaptation in fishes revealed by long‐read sequencing

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 1381-1397, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Long‐read sequencing is driving a new reality for genome science in which highly contiguous assemblies can be produced efficiently with modest resources. Genome assemblies from long‐read sequences are particularly exciting for understanding the evolution of complex genomic regions that are often difficult to assemble.

Chromosomal-Level Assembly of Antarctic Scaly Rockcod, Trematomus loennbergii Genome Using Long-Read Sequencing and Chromosome Conformation Capture (Hi-C) Technologies

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Trematomus species (suborder Notothenioidei; family Nototheniidae) are widely distributed in the southern oceans near Antarctica. There are 11 recognized species in the genus Trematomus, and notothenioids are known to have high chromosomal diversity (2n =

Origin, diversity, and biogeography of Antarctic scale worms (Polychaeta: Polynoidae): a wide‐scale barcoding approach

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022
We used scale worms as a representative group for Antarctic marine benthic animals to better understand their evolutionary history, and possibly predict how they could respond to warming temperatures. Using genetic barcode data from over 600 scale worms, we were able to comprehend the history of this group during past warming and cooling geological ...

Bone microstructure and bone mineral density are not systemically different in Antarctic icefishes and related Antarctic notothenioids

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 240, Issue 1, Page 34-49, January 2022., 2022
Antarctic icefishes are amazing examples of evolutionary adaptation. Here, we show quantitatively that icefish skeletons did not change bone microstructure or bone mineral density, relative to closely related fish species. Abstract Ancestors of the Antarctic icefishes (family Channichthyidae) were benthic and had no swim bladder, making it ...

Species distribution, hybridization and connectivity in the genus Chionodraco: Unveiling unknown icefish diversity in antarctica

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 766-783, May 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim The species of the genus Chionodraco (Notothenioidei) are the most abundant icefish on the continental shelf of the Weddell Sea. While previous studies indicated that only Chionodraco hamatus and Chionodraco myersi inhabit the Weddell Sea, the third Chionodraco species, Chionodraco rastrospinosus, was recently sampled in the area.

Allocation of the diet of the Argentine Islands’ inshore ichthyofauna

open access: yesBiosystems Diversity, 2021
Fish diets are important indicators of ecosystem change. This aspect of the ichthyofauna of the coast of the Argentine Islands has been insufficiently studied in comparison with other regions.

Eocene relatives of cod icefishes (Perciformes: Notothenioidei) from Seymour Island, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Fragmentary skull bones and vertebra from the Upper Eocene La Meseta Formation on Seymour (Marambio) Island, Antarctic Peninsula have been described as gadiform fishes, informally named “Mesetaichthys”.
