Morphology, genetic characterization and mitochondrial genome of Gorgorhynchus fistularius sp. nov. (Acanthocephala, Isthmosacanthidae) from the red cornetfish Fistularia petimba (Lacépède, 1803) (Gasterosteiformes, Fistulariidae), with phylomitogenomics of the family Isthmosacanthidae [PDF]

Zoosystematics and Evolution
The family Isthmosacanthidae is a group of acanthocephalans mainly parasitic in fishes of Osteichthyes. A new isthmosacanthid species, Gorgorhynchus fistularius sp. nov. (Polymorphida, Isthmosacanthidae) is described based on specimens collected from the

Do longsnout seahorses Hippocampus reidi (Syngnathiformes: Syngnathidae) have a holdfast preference? [PDF]

Neotropical Ichthyology
Coastal systems encompass a range of ecotones that are important for fish species, providing diverse micro-habitats and grounds for foraging, protection from predation, reproduction and areas for recruitment.

Optimizing a Novel eDNA‐Based Framework for Reef Fish Biodiversity Monitoring Using an Autonomous Filtration System and in situ Nanopore Sequencing

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study presents a comprehensive eDNA metabarcoding protocol optimized for monitoring fish biodiversity in coral reefs and other remote marine environments. By combining an autonomous underwater filtration system, Oxford Nanopore sequencing, and a 12S reference database specifically developed for French Polynesia, the method enables efficient and ...

An enigmatic teleost fish from the Eocene of Bolca (Italy) with unusual larval‐like features

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
Abstract ‘Pegasus’ volans is a highly unusual fossil teleost fish from the celebrated Eocene Bolca Lagerstätte. The fossil, known on the basis of two specimens, has been historically assigned to seamoths (Pegasidae), then to oarfishes and relatives (Lampriformes).

Cross‐validation matters in species distribution models: a case study with goatfish species

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 1, January 2025.
In an era of ongoing biodiversity, it is critical to map biodiversity patterns in space and time for better‐informing conservation and management. Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely applied in various types of such biodiversity assessments. Cross‐validation represents a prevalent approach to assess the discrimination capacity of a target SDM

Complete mitochondrial genomes of eight seahorses and pipefishes (Syngnathiformes: Syngnathidae): insight into the adaptive radiation of syngnathid fishes

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background The evolution of male pregnancy is the most distinctive characteristic of syngnathids, and their specialized life history traits make syngnathid species excellent model species for many issues in biological evolution.
