A preliminary phylogenetic analysis of the Capsalidae (Platyhelminthes : Monogenea : Monopisthocotylea) inferred from large subunit rDNA sequences [PDF]
, 2004 Phylogenetic relationships within the Capsalidae (Monogenea) were examined using large subunit ribosomal DNA sequences from 17 capsalid species (representing 7 genera, 5 subfamilies), 2 outgroup taxa (Monocotylidae) plus Udonella caligorum (Udonellidae).

Sphoeroides pachygaster Hardy & Randall 1983
, 2021 Sphoeroides pachygaster One of two rare species belonging to the family Tetraodontidae was S. pachygaster, found at two trawl stations. This species was caught only at bottom depths of 200 m in October (R2) and February (R1). The maximum biomass was estimated to be 30 kg /km 2 with the maximum abundance of 120 ind/km 2 in February (R1), which is higher

Characterizing trophic ecology of the checkered puffer (Sphoeroides testudineus) [PDF]
Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2017 ABSTRACT Sphoeroides testudineus (Linnaeus, 1758), is a common, widely distributed fish in coastal ecosystems. To better understand the trophic niche of S. testudineus, we collected individuals from tidal creeks on Abaco Island, The Bahamas, and employed stomach content and stable isotope analysis.
