Length–Mass and Length–Weight Relationships of Japanese Freshwater Fishes
Relationships between weights (W, dry weight [DW] and wet weight [WW] and lengths L, standard length [SL], head length [HL], and caudal peduncle depth [CD]) and these between DW and WW were examined in 61 freshwater fishes using formula W = aLb and DW = aWWb, respectively.

Form and function of anguilliform swimming
ABSTRACT Anguilliform swimmers are long and narrow animals that propel themselves by undulating their bodies. Observations in nature and recent investigations suggest that anguilliform swimming is highly efficient. However, understanding the underlying reasons for the efficiency of this type of locomotion requires interdisciplinary studies spanning ...

Hepatic molecular conversion and detoxification of ferritin iron in adult lampreys (Geotria australis), following natural and induced iron loading [PDF]
Weekly intramuscular injections of 3 mg of iron as horse spleen ferritin into adult Geotria australis over 10 weeks, resulted in a progressive increase in that form of iron in the serum.

Abstract Aim Temperature is regarded as an important driver of broad‐scale biodiversity patterns. However, less is known of the role of dispersal in shaping broad‐scale species and trait distributions, particularly given that species had to disperse out of glacial refugia after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM).

Abstract Hagfish (Myxinoidea) are a deep‐sea taxon of cyclostomes, the extant jawless vertebrates. Many researchers have examined the anatomy and embryology of hagfish to shed light on the early evolution of vertebrates; however, the diversity within hagfish is often overlooked.

Morphogenesis of otoliths during larval development in brook lamprey, Lampetra planeri
Otolith morphogenesis of the brook lamprey, Lampetra planeri, was analysed from larval to adult stages. The brook lamprey remains juvenile for about 4 years, facilitating analysis of otoliths maturation that permits to identify relevant evolutionary ...
