Ultrastructure of granulocytes of teleost fish (Salmoniformes, Cypriniformes, Perciformes)

Journal of Evolutionary Biochemistry and Physiology, 2013
Analysis of data on ultrastructure of granulocytes of freshwater and marine bony fish of orders Salmoniformes, Cypriniformes, and Perciformes showed that in all studied species there were revealed two types of granulocytes-neutrophils and eosinophils. The exception was the bluefish Pomatomus saltatrix L. whose pronephros hemopoietic tissue was found to

Adaptative Radiation of the Retina in Galaxiidae (Salmoniformes)

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1990
The retinas of seven galaxiid species collected from different habitats in Tasmania were investigated by light microscopy. There are remarkable differences between Galaxias and Paragalaxias species. The retinas of Galaxias species are characterised by a less dense retinal epithelial pigment (REP), large numbers of short and long rods, the presence of a

Comparative osteology and relationships of the Umbridae (Pisces: Salmoniformes)

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1982
The phylogenetic relationships of the five living species of umbrids are examined through a comparative osteological study based on a series of cleared-and-stained specimens of each species. The Umbridae appear to be strictly monophyletic. In addition, for 45 characters, the outgroup Esox shares one character-state with at least one umbrid species ...

Comparative morphometry and phenetics of the genera of esocoid fishes (Salmoniformes)

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1987
Using shape data derived from the externa] body morphometry of esocoid fishes in which the effects of size were standardized, a close relationship of Umbra and Novumbra is supported. Dallia is provisionally associated with these but some data contradicted this. Esox is distantly associated with all of these.

Fishes of the family Prototroctidae (Salmoniformes)

Australian Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1976
The family Prototroctidae, the genus Prototroctes, and the two contained species-P. oxyrhynchus Gunther, 1870 (New Zealand) and P. maraena Gunther 1864 (south-eastern Australia and Tasmania) are described. P. oxyvhynchus is distinguished from P. maraena by much higher counts of lateral scale rows, vertebrae and gill rakers. What is known of the natural

Ecotypes in Graylings (Thymallidae, Salmoniformes)

Russian Journal of Ecology, 2005
The ecotypic structure of two grayling species in Eurasia is considered. Based on original and published data, the development of ecological forms in water bodies of different kinds is analyzed. Parallelism in the emergence of highly similar forms in different sites of the ranges is demonstrated.

Role of temperature and flow regulation on the Salmoniform - Cypriniform transition

Fundamental and Applied Limnology, 2001
The effects of both temperature and flow regulation on the longitudinal evolution of the fish community were studied along a section of the River Garonne. The section included an upstream zone dominated by the taxonomic order Salmoniforms, and a downstream zone dominated by Cypriniforms.

Molecular phylogeny and biogeography of the Tasmanian and New Zealand mudfishes (Salmoniformes : Galaxiidae)

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1997
The phylogenetic affinities of the diadromous Tasmanian mudfish, Galaxias cleaveri , have long been problematic. Some systematists have suggested that this species is closely related to the morphologically similar but non-diadromous New Zealand mudfish genus, Neochanna , while others argued that the similarities represent convergent evolution.

Epidermal fine structure of the teleost Esox americanus (esocidae, salmoniformes)

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1974
The epidermis of Esox americanus consists of filament-containing cells, secretory cells, and occasional chloride cells. The filament-containing cells are the most numerous with three distinct types belonging to basal, mid and surface layers. These cells have predominately a structural role, although the surface cells probably contribute to the ...

Fishes of the family retropinnidae (Pisces: Salmoniformes) — A taxonomic revision and synopsis

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, 1979
Abstract The taxonomy of fishes of the family Retropinnidae (Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand) is examined. It is concluded that diadromous and lacustrine populations of Retropinna in New Zealand are Retropinna retropinna ...
