Convergent evolution of type I antifreeze proteins from four different progenitors in response to global cooling [PDF]
BMC Molecular and Cell BiologyAlanine-rich, alpha-helical type I antifreeze proteins (AFPs) in fishes are thought to have arisen independently in the last 30 Ma on at least four occasions.

Rhodopsin in the Dark Hot Sea: Molecular Analysis of Rhodopsin in a Snailfish, Careproctus rhodomelas, Living near the Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vent. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Visual systems in deep-sea fishes have been previously studied from a photobiological aspect; however, those of deep-sea fish inhabiting the hydrothermal vents are far less understood due to sampling difficulties.

A new species of snailfish of the genus Paraliparis (Liparidae) from the western North Pacific, with a redescription of the poorly known species Paraliparis mandibularis [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2020 A new snailfish, Paraliparis flammeus, is described on the basis of 18 specimens collected off the Pacific coast of Tohoku District, northern Japan at depths of 422–890 m. The new species is distinguished from 28 species of Paraliparis described from the

The complete mitochondrial genome of Liparis tessellatus and its phylogenetic analysis [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 Liparis tessellatus is a cubed snailfish that inhabits the northwestern region of the Pacific Ocean. The family Liparidae is difficult to distinguish morphologically due to the typical body color and shape variation, which are used interchangeably due to

Bioinspired surface structures for added shear stabilization in suction discs [PDF]
Scientific ReportsMany aquatic organisms utilize suction-based organs to adhere to diverse substrates in unpredictable environments. For multiple fish species, these adhesive discs include a softer disc margin consisting of surface structures called papillae, which ...

Morphology and genome of a snailfish from the Mariana Trench provide insights into deep-sea adaptation [PDF]
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2019 AbstractIt is largely unknown how living organisms—especially vertebrates—survive and thrive in the coldness, darkness and high pressures of the hadal zone. Here, we describe the unique morphology and genome ofPseudoliparis swirei—a recently described snailfish species living below a depth of 6,000 m in the Mariana Trench.
