From commensalism to parasitism in Carapidae (Ophidiiformes): heterochronic modes of development? [PDF]

PeerJ, 2016
Phenotypic variations allow a lineage to move into new regions of the adaptive landscape. The purpose of this study is to analyse the life history of the pearlfishes (Carapinae) in a phylogenetic framework and particularly to highlight the evolution of ...

Echiodon prionodon: a new species of Carapidae (Pisces, Ophidiiformes) from New Zealand

European Journal of Taxonomy, 2012
A new species of pearlfish, Echiodon prionodon, is described from three specimens. This species is diagnosed by having a serrated margin on the posterior edge of the fangs, expanded thoracic plates on some abdominal vertebrae and ventral swimbladder ...

Morphological particularities of the head in four Carapidae (Ophidiiformes) [PDF]

, 1999
A study of the skull and the musculature of the oral and pharyngeal region of four adult Carapidae species (Encheliophis boraboreruis, E. homei. E. gracilis and Carapus acus) has been undertaken to compare it with the diet related characters.

Hearing capacities and otolith size in two ophidiiform species (Ophidion rochei and Carapus acus) [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2014
Numerous studies have highlighted the diversity of fish inner ear morphology. However, the function of the shape, size and orientation of the different structures remains poorly understood.

DNA barcoding the ichthyofauna of the Beibu Gulf: Implications for fisheries management in a seafood market hub. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
The fish fauna of the beibu gulf, one of the largest sea food hubs in Southeast Asia, is characterized here by DNA barcoding. The 1080 DNA barcodes analyzed show concordance between morphological identifications and DNA‐based species delimitation. Lower level of diversity detected here compared to historical observations is concordant with the stock ...

Vulnerability of tropical fish communities across depth in the central Indian Ocean. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Coral reefs and their fish communities below scuba diving depth (>30 m), in mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) (∼30–150 m), in rariphotic (150–300 m), and in upper bathyal waters (300–500 m) are often underexplored, especially in the Indian Ocean.

Backward swimming in elongated-bodied abyssal demersal fishes: Synaphobranchidae, Macrouridae, and Ophidiidae. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract The deep‐sea demersal fish fauna is characterized by a prevalence of elongated‐body forms with long tapering tails. Using baited camera landers at depths of 4500–6300 m in the Pacific Ocean, we observed multiple instances of backward swimming using reverse undulation of the slender body in four species: the cutthroat eel Ilyophis robinsae ...

The fossil vertebrate primary type specimens in the collection of the University of Otago Department of Geology. [PDF]

J R Soc N Z
ABSTRACT The 47 vertebrate type specimens held in the University of Otago Geology Department are catalogued in detail. A short history of the collection is followed by lists of the type specimens under the Classes Actinopterygii, Reptilia, Aves and Mammalia. A fish trace‐fossil is included at the end of the Actinopterygii.

Threatened fish species in the Northeast Atlantic are functionally rare

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 10, Page 1827-1845, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim The criteria used to define the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List categories are essentially based on demographic parameters at the species level, but they do not integrate species' traits or their roles in ecosystems.
