An annotated checklist of fishes of the family Sciaenidae [PDF]
A checklist of the croakers of the world, family Sciaenidae, is presented. A total of 584 nominal species belonging to 289 valid species and 69 genera is included. Four genera, Johnius with 32 species, Cynoscion 25, Stellifer 24, and Umbrina 17 contains 30% of the species, whereas 43% of the genera (31) are monotypic.

Comparing Aquatic Environmental DNA Collection Methods Across a Diel Cycle in a Lotic System
Water samples were collected over 25 h from the Tangipahoa River, Louisiana, using active and passive environmental DNA methods to detect fish assemblages. Active sampling involved collecting water samples at hourly intervals for 25 h, whereas passive sampling deployed a stationary filter for 25 h.

NEOGENE PARATETHYAN CROAKERS (TELEOSTEI, SCIAENIDAE)
The fossil record of sciaenid fishes (based on both otoliths and osteological finds) from the Neogene of the Paratethys is reviewed. The species Labrax (=Morone) multipinnatus Gorjanović-Kramberger, 1882 from the Sarmatian of Croatia (Sv. Nedelja) that was originally described as a sea bass of the family Moronidae is re-assigned to the extant croaker ...

The complete mitochondrial genome ofAtrobucca nibe(Perciformes: Sciaenidae) [PDF]
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Atrobucca nibe has been determined by polymerase chain reaction and primer walking methods. The mitogenome is a circular molecule of 16,504 bp in length, including the typical structure of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 2 non-coding ...
