The dental plate on bichir pectoral fins: A unique dermal skeletal element bearing individual odontodes with tooth‐like replacement

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Pectoral fins of bichirs encompass the so‐called dental plates – unique dermal skeletal elements with individual odontodes identical to the oral teeth. Abstract The dermal skeleton appeared early in vertebrate evolution in the form of mineralized skin denticles composed of tooth‐like units—odontodes.

All their eggs in one basket: a rocky reef nursery for the longnose skate (Raja rhina Jordan & Gilbert, 1880) in the southern California Bight [PDF]

, 2008
Skates (family Rajidae) are oviparous and lay tough, thick-walled eggs. At least some skate species lay their eggs in spatially restricted nursery grounds where embryos develop and hatch (Hitz, 1964; Hoff, 2007).

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1091-1119, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

PECULIARITIES OF BOTTOM FISH TRADE (HALIBUT, SKATE, GIANT GRENADIE, COD, LYCODES, BROADBANDED THORNYHEAD) IN THE NORTH OKHOTSK SEA FISHING SUBZONE OF THE SEA OF OKHOTSK IN 2019

Fisheries, 2020
Based on the materials collected in 2019, the authors consider some peculiarities of bottom fish fishing (halibut, stingrays, giant grenadie, cod, lycodes, and broadbanded thornyhead) in the North Okhotsk subzone of the Sea of Okhotsk. The accompanying problems are shown; the measures to optimize fishing are proposed.

Early life sensory ability—ventilatory responses of thornback ray embryos (Raja clavata) to predator-type electric fields [PDF]

, 2015
Predator avoidance is fundamental for survival and it can be particularly challenging for prey animals if physical movement away from a predatory threat is restricted. Many sharks and rays begin life within an egg capsule that is attached to the sea bed.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...
