Convergent Evolutionary Dead-End and Breakdown of Hard Chorion in Parental-Egg-Care Fish Reproductive Strategies. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol
ABSTRACT Fish exhibit a diverse array of reproductive strategies adapted to various ecological niches. Parental egg‐care, including live‐bearing, mouth‐brooding, and male egg protection by brood pouches, represents an effective strategy for ensuring larval survival and has emerged independently in multiple lineages.

A revision of Plectanocotyle (Monogenea, Plectanocotylidae), with molecular barcoding of three species and the description of a new species from the streaked gurnard Chelidonichthys lastoviza off Algeria [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
Background The family Plectanocotylidae includes parasites of the gills of marine fish; although nine genera and about 20 species have been described, almost no molecular information is available.

The Influence of Habitat Heterogeneity and Human Disturbance on Trophic Interactions of <i>Sebastiscus marmoratus</i> and <i>Scorpaenopsis cirrosa</i> in Wanshan Archipelago. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
This study investigates how habitat heterogeneity and human activity shape trophic interactions between two scorpionfish species (Sebastiscus marmoratus and Scorpaenopsis cirrosa) in China's Wanshan Archipelago. Stable isotope analysis revealed regional shifts in their diets (e.g., annelids to mollusks) and broader niche use by S.

The Metapopulation Bridge to Macroevolutionary Speciation Rates: A Conceptual Framework and Empirical Test. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Lett
Can metapopulation persistence predict speciation rates? Here, we provide a new framework and apply it to 40 years of fish metacommunity data to test this hypothesized bridge between micro‐ and macroevolution. ABSTRACT Whether large‐scale variation in lineage diversification rates can be predicted by species properties at the population level is a key ...

Patterns and Processes of Genomic Evolution Inferred From the Ten Smallest Vertebrate Genomes. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
By integrating phylogenetic relationships derived from nuclear DNA with population genetic analyses across ten pufferfish species, the genetic differentiation mechanisms underpinning the radiative speciation of the most compact vertebrate genomes has elucidated.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Hemilepidotus gilberti (Scorpaeniformes: Cottidae) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA Part B, 2016
The complete mitochondrial genome of gilbert's irish lord (Hemilepidotus gilberti), a fish belonging to family Cottidae, was sequenced for the first time. This complete mitochondrial genome was 16,907 nucleotides in length, consisting of 38 mitochondrial genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a control region).

Distributional range extension of a rare scorpionfish, Hipposcorpaena filamentosa (Actinopterygii, Scorpaeniformes, Scorpaenidae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2021
The distributional range of Hipposcorpaena filamentosa Fowler, 1938, previously recorded only from the Philippines, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea is extended to include South Africa and Australia, on the basis of two specimens (17.2–29.5 mm standard ...

The First Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Flathead Cociella crocodilus (Scorpaeniformes: Platycephalidae) and the Phylogenetic Relationships within Scorpaeniformes Based on Whole Mitogenomes. [PDF]

open access: yesGenes (Basel), 2019
Complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are important molecular markers for understanding the phylogenetics of various species. Although recent studies on the mitogenomes of the Scorpaeniformes species have been greatly advanced, information regarding molecular studies and the taxonomic localization of Platycephalidae is still sparse.
