Careproctus surugaensis sp. nov. (Liparidae), a new snailfish from Suruga Trough, Japan

Ichthyological Research, 2017
A new species of liparid fish Careproctus surugaensis is described from a single specimen collected between 1,450 and 1,570 m depth on the northern part of Suruga Trough, Suruga Bay, Japan. It can be distinguished from all currently recognized congeners by the following combination of characters: 50 total vertebrae, 47 dorsal-fin rays, 39 anal-fin rays,

Rare events of cyclopia and melanism among deep-water snailfishes (Liparidae, Scorpaeniformes)

MTS/IEEE Oceans 2001. An Ocean Odyssey. Conference Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.01CH37295), 2002
Natural anomalies of fish eyes are noted occasionally and were never previously reported for snailfishes (Liparidae). Among fishes melanism is occurred in the nature relatively rare and sometimes associated with intergeneric hybridization or pathologic invasion.

Careproctus longidigitus, a new snailfish (Liparidae) from the southern Sea of Okhotsk

Ichthyological Research, 2019
A new snailfish, Careproctus longidigitus, is described on the basis of four specimens collected off the Shiretoko Peninsula, Hokkaido, Japan. The new species is most similar to C. notosaikaiensis Kai, Ikeguchi, and Nakabo 2011 (Sea of Japan) and C. rausuensis Machi, Nobetsu, and Yabe 2012 (southern Sea of Okhotsk), having similar numbers of dorsal ...

Spotted snailfish, Liparis callyodon (Liparidae), a new species for the Sea of Okhotsk

Journal of Ichthyology, 2016
The first finding of the Spotted snailfish Liparis callyodon (Liparidae) is reported for the Sea of Okhotsk (littoral zone of the Urup Island). This is also the first record of the species for the Kuril Islands archipelago also as the southernmost finding of Spotted snailfish at all. The description of the specimen and the distributional pattern of the

Type I Antifreeze Proteins: Possible Origins from Chorion and Keratin Genes in Atlantic Snailfish

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2005
Type I antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are alanine-rich alpha-helical polypeptides found in some species of right-eye flounders, sculpin, and snailfish. In this study, a shorthorn sculpin skin type I cDNA clone was used to probe an Atlantic snailfish liver cDNA library in order to locate expressed genes corresponding to snailfish plasma AFPs.

Isolation and purification of antifreeze proteins from skin tissues of snailfish, cunner and sea raven

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Proteins and Proteomics, 2004
Antifreeze proteins/polypeptides (AFPs), which are found in diverse species of marine fish, are grouped into four distinct classes (types I-IV). The discovery of skin-specific type I AFPs established that this class contains distinct isoforms, liver-type and skin-type, which are encoded by separate gene families.

Careproctus iacchus, a new variegated snailfish (Liparidae) from the Seas of Japan and Okhotsk

Ichthyological Research, 2018
A new species of snailfishes, Careproctus iacchus, is described on the basis of three specimens collected from the Seas of Japan and Okhotsk. Among the species of Careproctus, the new species is most similar to Careproctus comus and Careproctus faunus, both known from the Aleutian Islands, in having a variegated body coloration.

Feeding of the Snailfish Careproctus cf. cyclocephalusin Pacific Waters of the Northern Kuril Islands

Russian Journal of Marine Biology, 2003
This paper describes the feeding habits of the snailfish Careproctus cf. cyclocephalus (Scorpaeniformes, Liparidae). The diet consisted mostly of crustaceans, among which decapods predominated comprising up to 69.3% of the mean biomass of food organisms. Small shrimp (Eualus biunguis and E.

Careproctus kidoi, a new Arctic species of snailfish (Teleostei: Liparidae) from Baffin Bay

Ichthyological Research, 2008
Careproctus kidoi sp. nov. is described from the Baffin Bay between Greenland and Canada, in the northern most part of the western North Atlantic. During a series of bottom trawl surveys conducted in 1988–2004, 22 specimens of an undescribed species of Careproctus were caught at depths between 952 and 1,487 m.
