The lefteye flounder family Bothidae (Order Pleuronectiformes) of Taiwan

Zootaxa, 2019
The family Bothidae in Taiwan is reviewed. A total of 15 genera and 42 species are recognized. Historical records are re-evaluated and five species are recorded in Taiwan for the first time: Arnoglossus yamanakai Fukui & Ozawa, 1988, Crossorhombus valderostratus (Alcock, 1890), Parabothus polylepis (Alcock, 1889), Parabothus coarctatus (Gilbert ...

Joleaudichthys sadeki Chabanaud; 1937: Pleuronectiform fish from egyptian Eocene. First steps on the history of Pleuronectiformes (Pisces; Teleostei)

Geobios, 1995
Abstract Joleaudichthys sadeki is a fossil flatfish from the Upper Lutetian (Middle Eocene) of Egypt. Chabanaud 1937considered that this fossil belonged to the Joleaudichthyidae family; within the Psettodoidei suborder; within the pleuronectiform order.

Pleuronectiformes Bleeker 1859

Results and Discussion The term “flatfish” was first introduced by Willughby in 1686 in his work L’Historia Piscium (Willughby, 1686). Artedi (1792) reported the occurrence of one flatfish genus, namely, Pleuronectes and included all the flatfishes under that genus.

Analysis of the morphogenesis and cell proliferation in the retina of a pleuronectiform fish, the turbot psetta maxima (Pleuronectiformes: Teleostei)

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2013
ABSTRACTThe morphogenesis and cell proliferation in the retina of turbot (Psetta maxima, Pleuronectiformes: Teleostei) from embryo through metamorphosis have been examined by using proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)‐immunohistochemistry and general histological procedures.

Acanthocephalan Cystacanths from Flatfish (Order Pleuronectiformes) in Tropical Australian Waters

Journal of Parasitology, 2015
Cystacanths of 4 species of Acanthocephala are reported for the first time from various species of fish belonging to the Order Pleuronectiformes from waters of the western Gulf of Carpentaria and the central coast of Queensland, Australia: Corynosoma cetaceum Johnston and Best, 1942 (Family Polymorphidae), Serrasentis cf.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Cynoglossus puncticeps (Pleuronectiformes: Cynoglossidae)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
Cynoglossus puncticeps (Soleoidei Cynoglossidae) is characterized by both eyes on the left side of the body. Here we report the mitogenome of this tonguesole for the first time, which is 17,142 bp in length, and the gene order has been reorganized.

Interrelationships of scophthalmid fishes (Pleuronectiformes: Scophthalmidae)

2003
A cladistic analysis of the eight species included in the Scophthalmidae was performed using 25 morphological features, mostly osteological. The analysis resulted in a single cladogram (exhaustive search, 34 steps, consistency index = 0.735, retention index = 0.864). The monophyly of the Scophthalmidae is supported by 4 synapomorphies.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Paraplagusia blochii (Pleuronectiformes: Cynoglossidae)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
Paraplagusia blochii (Cynoglossidae, Soleoidei) is characterized by both eyes on the left side of the body with a short rostral hook reaching only to hind margin of lower eye. Here we first report the mitogenome of this tongue sole, which is 16,611 bp in length, and the gene order has been reorganized.

Adaptation in the jaws of flatfish (Pleuronectiformes)

Journal of Zoology, 1969
The structure and mechanisms of the jaws of 18 species of flatfish have been investigated. Clear adaptations to different modes of feeding were found. The mechanisms of the jaws of Soleidae, Cynoglossidae, and Rhombosoleinae are highly specialized and the representatives of the two latter groups have some interesting jaw muscles of doubtful homology.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Zebrias crossolepis (Pleuronectiformes: Soleidae)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
Zebrias crossolepis belongs to the family Soleidae of Pleuronectiformes. This species and its congeners are characterized by eyes on right side and a compressed body with only anterior half of caudal fin margin connected with dorsal and anal fins. In this article, we determined and described the complete mitogenome of Z. crossolepis.
