A New Snailfish of the Genus Careproctus (Cottiformes: Liparidae) from the Beaufort Sea [PDF]
A new species of Careproctus is described on the basis of two individuals collected from the eastern Beaufort Sea during the U.S.–Canada 2013 Transboundary Cruise. It is distinguished from all known species of Careproctus primarily by its elongate deeply exserted filamentous rays in the middle part of the pectoral fin, an unlobed dorsal fin, protruding

Fish antifreeze protein origin in sculpins by frameshifting within a duplicated housekeeping gene
Alanine‐rich alpha‐helical antifreeze proteins (AFPs) that inhibit ice growth have arisen via convergent evolution four times in northern fishes. The sculpin AFP arose from the larger endoplasmic reticulum shaping Lunapark protein via gene duplication and divergence.

Further diversity in the origins of fish antifreeze proteins
Shifts in environmental conditions can impose strong selection for adaptive traits. During the Cenozoic era, as the oceans cooled, many marine teleost fish species were at risk of freezing. This led to the independent emergence of distinct ice‐binding antifreeze proteins (AFPs).

ANTIOXIDANT AND IMMUNOSTIMULATING ACTIVITY OF POLYSACCHARIDES EXTRACTED FROM CUBED-SNAILFISH (Liparis tessellatus Gilbert & Burke, 1912) EGGS [PDF]
An optimized enzymatic extraction using protamexTM was established for polysaccharides from Liparis tesellatus eggs (PLE). Total sugars, sulfated glycosaminoglycans, uronic acids, and hexosamines content of PLE were 43.2%, 9.0%, 23.9%, and 1.73 ...

Davidson Seamount Taxonomic Guide [PDF]
Davidson Seamount is one of the largest seamounts in U.S. waters and the first to be characterized as a “seamount.” In 2002 and 2006, the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary (MBNMS) led two multi-institutional expeditions to characterize the geology ...

Pseudoliparis swirei sp. nov. is described from 37 individuals collected in the Mariana Trench at depths 6898–7966 m. The collection of this new species is the deepest benthic capture of a vertebrate with corroborated depth data. Here, we describe P. swirei sp. nov.

Investigations on demersal fish in the Barents Sea winter 2006 [PDF]
A combined acoustic and bottom trawl survey to obtain indices of abundance and estimates of length and weight at age has been carried out each winter (4-6 weeks in January- March) since 1981 in the Barents Sea. The target species are cod and haddock, but
