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

New records of the silver-cheeked toadfish Lagocephalus sceleratus (Gmelin, 1789) in the Tyrrhenian and Ionian Seas: early detection and participatory monitoring in practice [PDF]
5 pages, 3 figuresThe silver-cheeked toadfish Lagocephalus sceleratus (Gmelin, 1789)—an invasive toxic species well established in the eastern Mediterranean—is rapidly expanding through the western Basin and a public campaign was set to inform Italian ...

Despite the recent global increase in mangrove restoration efforts, our understanding of the outcomes and recovery of biodiversity and re‐establishing functionality, such as productive fish habitat, is limited due to the lack of long‐term monitoring. Here, we used a space‐for‐time approach to investigate whether restored mangroves attain similar fish ...

The Grey Triggerfish (Balistes carolinensis Gmelin), a balistid fish new to the Norwegian fauna
Four specimens of Balistes carolinensis (Balistidae, Plectognathi) were taken in Norwegian waters in autumn 1995. The first was taken 21 August in the Norwegian Sea SW of Perjohanneset (63°11' N, 04°45' E), while the three others were caught on the west

A new record of Diodon hystrix (Actinopterygii: Tetraodontiformes: Diodontidae) in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
The spot-fin porcupinefish, Diodon hystrix Linnaeus, 1758, was first recorded in the Mediterranean by Torchio (1963), from the Gulf of Taranto, Italy. There have been no subsequent records, from this sea, ever since. In this paper, we report a new record

Using fish eDNA metabarcoding, we successfully described an overwintering fish community in ice‐covered environments. eDNA data indicated that the dominant species were Clupea pallasii in the lagoon and Tribolodon spp. in the inlet river. Our findings suggested that the eDNA technique is useful for studying ice‐covered areas and could provide new ...

The goal of this study was to leverage existing survey technology to design and test an eDNA sampler that captures an integrated eDNA sample over the length of a deep‐water transect. We provide a biological interpretation of the resulting data, demonstrating the usefulness of such technology to understand the ocean environments, using fish species as ...

Evolution and Developmental Diversity of Skin Spines in Pufferfishes
Summary: Teleost fishes develop remarkable varieties of skin ornaments. The developmental basis of these structures is poorly understood. The order Tetraodontiformes includes diverse fishes such as the ocean sunfishes, triggerfishes, and pufferfishes ...
