A new species of spinous loach, Cobitis shikokuensis, is described based on 297 specimens from Shikoku Island, Japan. The new species was formerly known as the Shikoku group
of Cobitis takatsuensis. It can be distinguished from other species of Cobitis and closely related genera by a combination of the following characters: dorsal fin with 6 branched soft rays; anal fin with
5 branched soft rays; one brownish streak across eye from the tip of nose, no streak on cheek; a black spot smaller than eye
diameter near the dorsal corner of the caudal fin base; 3–5 small brownish speckles on ventral side of caudal peduncle; high
caudal peduncle with well-developed fleshy keels on dorsal and ventral side; a lamina circularis at base of dorsal part of
pectoral fin absent; first branched soft ray of pectoral fin broad in males; pectoral soft rays widely branched from the approximate
midpoint; last anal fin ray with 2 elements; interorbital width 11.2–17.1% of head length. 相似文献

Adult males of African weakly discharging electric fish (family: Mormyridae) are distinguished from juveniles and adult females by a dorsally directed indentation of the posterior ventral body wall and by massive bone expansion of the bases of a select number of anal-fin rays. These sexually dimorphic structures seem to facilitate the anal-fin reflex that is displayed during courtship when the male envelopes its anal fin around the female's to form a common spawning pouch. Expanded bone could provide additional surface for muscle attachment and thus assist in part with the courtship sequence. Based on the fact that the expression of the male sexually dimorphic electric organ discharge (EOD) is under androgen control, and that the female EOD can be masculinized through testosterone administration, we hypothesized that androgens should also drive anal-fin ray bone expansion in male mormyrids and equally effect male-like changes in treated juveniles and adult females. Exogenous androgen treatment (17α-methyltestosterone) of adult femaleBrienomyrus nigerresulted in a male-like EOD, and male-typical structural transformations (body wall indentation and anal-fin ray bone expansion). Some of these changes were immediate and receded following hormone withdrawal (EOD), while others developed more slowly and were apparently permanent (indentation and bone formation). 17α-Methyltestosterone administration affected only those targets in females that are normally involved in the male's reproductive behavior, i.e., its courtship signal (EOD) and two morphological features (body-wall indentation and bone expansion). Rays of the dorsal or caudal fins were never affected. 相似文献

A pelagic juvenile (74.0 mm in standard length) of Lepidion inosimae was collected by midwater trawl (0–20 m depth) from the transition waters between the Kuroshio and Oyashio fronts off northeastern
Japan. The specimen is characterized by an elongate body, a chin barbel, a minute first ray and non-elongated second ray of
first dorsal fin, combination of 55 second dorsal fin rays and 52 anal fin rays, and no ventral luminous organ. This is the
first report of early life stages in the genus Lepidion. 相似文献

A new anthiine fish,Holanthias kingyo sp, nov., is described on the basis of two specimens (male and female) from the Ryukyu Is., Japan. The new species is most
similar toH. natalensis (Fowler, 1925), known only from South Africa, in having the following characters: dorsal fin soft rays 16 or 17, anal fin
soft rays 9, pored lateral line scales 46 or 47, scale rows above lateral line to origin of dorsal fin 9 1/2 or 10 1/2, and
gill rakers 10 or 11 +24 or 25=34–36. It differs from the latter in having more scales below the lateral line to the origin
of the anal fin (27 1/2 vs. 18–24), a U-shaped caudal fin with paddle-like lobes (vs. deeply forked caudal fin with each lobe
ending in a long slender filament), the outer margin of the soft anal fin vertical (vs. gently convex) and brown spots on
the body in female (vs. spots absent in females). 相似文献

A new species,gerres infasciatus, from the gulf of thailand (perciformes: Gerreidae) 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Gerres infasciatus sp. nov. is described from the holotype and two paratypes, 125–140 mm in standard length (SL), collected off Samut Prakan,
northern Gulf of Thailand. The species is similar toG. filamentosus Cuvier andG. macracanthus Bleeker in general appearance, having an elongated second dorsal fin spine, but differs from them in having 39 or 40 pored
lateral line scales, the first and second soft dorsal fin ray tips yellow in fresh specimens, a narrow, faint dusky-yellowish
margin on the upper membrane of the spinous dorsal fin (between 4th–9th spines), the distal part of the pelvic fin (between
1st–5th soft rays) white for 1/3–1/2 of each ray length (lost after preservation), bands absent on the body in both fresh
and preserved specimens, a smaller orbit diameter (11.4–12.4% of SL), a longer second dorsal fin spine (48.0–68.9% of SL),
and shorter second and third anal fin spines (10.7–11.2% and 10.4–11.3% of SL), respectively. 相似文献

Hermaphrodites were detected in diploid and polyploid isolates of population 86-Va of Meloidogyne hapla. Young hermaphrodites are indistinguishable from normal females. Initially, hermaphrodite ovaries are filled with oocytes at various stages of development. Hermaphroditism is expressed later when young oocytes in the early pachytene region of the growth zone suddenly advance to diakinesis and proceed with maturation divisions, resulting in spermatid production. Spermatogenesis may be initiated shortly after the fourth molt, or later, after a female has produced some eggs. Spermatogenesis may occur in one or both gonads, and it may be initiated in one gonad before the other. Once initiated, spermatogenesis continues for the entire reproductive life of the hermaphrodite. Several thousand spermatozoa accumulate in the ovotestis. Because they do not pass through the oviduct into the spermatotheca, they do not take part in reproduction (nonfunctional hermaphroditism). Among the progeny of hermaphrodites, ca. 50% are hermaphroditic, and the remainder are apparently normal females which, however, produce about 50% hermaphroditic progeny. Two temperature regimes (20-23 C and 27-30 C) did not influence the percentage of hermaphrodites among the progeny. Hermaphroditism could not be transmitted to nonhermaphroditic isolates following attempted crosses between males of hermaphroditic and females of nonhermaphroditic isolates. Although this result suggests cytoplasmic rather than nuclear inheritance, this conclusion is not definitive. 相似文献

A new species of deepwater morid fish,Gadella thysthlon, is described on the basis of five specimens from the Galápagos Islands. It differs from other species ofGadella by its low dorsal and anal fin ray counts (8+56–58 and 64–66 respectively), moderate number of gill rakers (4–5+9–11), small
luminous organ that is closer to the anus than the interventral line, and its dark body, bright red-orange median fins with
dark bases, and melanophores on the tongue apex and the palatal midline. 相似文献

The annual reproductive cycle of the dragonet,Repomucenus valenciennei, from Tokyo Bay, Japan, was studied by analysis of seasonal trends in gonadosomatic indices and histological observations
of gonads. Sexual dimorphism in the growth of several body parts relative to standard length (SL) and changes in color pattern
of the first dorsal fin with growth were also investigated. The spawning season lasted from spring (April [1991] or February
[1992]) to autumn (October) with two spawning peaks, in spring and autumn. In spring, only one-year-old (age 1+) fish spawned,
age 0+ females not spawning until autumn, at which time they had reached age 1+. Likewise, histological observations of males
indicated that testes had reached full maturity by 80 mm SL (age 1+). The minimum mature size of females was estimated as
60 mm SL. In males 45–80 mm SL, the first spine of the first dorsal fin, last ray of the second dorsal fin, last ray of the
anal fin, and caudal fin ray showed strongly positive allometry, indicating rapid growth of these structures relative to SL.
Subsequently, their growth returned to an isometric pattern in males>80 mm SL. In females, on the other hand, the same body
parts showed slightly positive allometry throughout their growth. The color pattern on the first dorsal fin also changed in
males 45–80 mm SL. 相似文献

Two larvae [17.4 mm standard length: SL (postflexion stage)] and 26.1 mm SL (transformation stage)] and a juvenile (31.7 mm
SL) of a phosichthyid, Polymetme elongata, from Suruga Bay and offshore waters, central Japan, are described. These specimens had an elongate body with relatively
short preanal length (53–63% SL), long anal fin base (2.6–3.4 times dorsal fin base length), and anal fin origin below dorsal
fin base, and were further characterized by a blackish flap on each eye and internal clusters of melanophores (e.g., along
caudal myosepta around midlateral line and on ventral margin of caudal peduncle). The short preanal length and larval melanophore
pattern were very similar to those of another phosichthyid, Yarrella blackfordi, from the Atlantic Ocean. 相似文献

The gonads of female and male Triops
cancriformis specimens from populations of the northern part of the species distribution area were examined by conventional transmission
electron microscopy in order to gain insight into the complicated reproductive mode of the species. Ovarian follicles consisted
of an oocyte and three nurse cells and were surrounded by a thin layer of follicular cells. Oocytes are initially smaller
than nurse cells and contained mitochondria of the cristae type as well as many free ribosomes. The prominent nucleus contained
a nucleolus. The cytoplasm of oocytes was filled with yolk globules that were surrounded by membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum.
Nurse cells also contained yolk globules. The follicle duct walls consisted of closely packed elongated cells covered by a
lamellar basal lamina. No distinct Golgi apparatus was found in the follicle duct cells. The passage of oocytes through the
duct was accompanied by a marked flattening of the follicle duct cells. Simultaneously, the oocytes were wrapped in eggshell
material before entering the longitudinal oviduct. Testicular lobes were not found in any of the investigated female specimens.
In male animals, the epithelial wall of the testicular tubules consisted of both germinal and vegetative cells. Maturing spermatids
formed multicellular nests located in clearly delimited cysts in the intercellular space of the testicular epithelium. The
lumen of the testicular tubules contained, exclusively, free mature spermatozoa. These characteristics point to the cystic
type of spermiogenesis. Mature spermatozoa were non-flagellate, had a regular ovoid shape of 4–5 μm diameter, and an acrosome
was not found. Only a negligible amount of spermatozoa (< 5%) showed signs of degeneration. In conclusion, the results provide
evidence for a parthenogenetic and/or bisexual reproduction mode rather than a hermaphroditic one in the populations examined.

A late-stage larva of Coryphaenoides pectoralis was first observed in situ and subsequently collected by the deep-sea submersible “Shinkai 2000” from mesopelagic waters at a depth of 530 m off Hokkaido, Japan. The larva (14.5 mm in head length, 149+ mm in total length)
has fan-like pectoral fins, elongate first dorsal fin, pelvic fin and tail, 10 first dorsal rays (including 2 pseudospines),
and 7 pelvic fin rays, 6 branchiostegal rays, no light organ, anus just anterior to anal fin origin, 2 retia and gas glands,
14 abdominal vertebrae, and previously reported larval pigmentation. Counts of second dorsal and anal fin rays, and caudal
vertebrae, are reported for the first time. 相似文献

Microdontochromis rotundiventralis, a new cichlid fish (perciformes: Cichlidae) from Lake Tanganyika
Microdontochromis rotundiventralis, a new species of cichlid fish, is described on the basis of 13 specimens from Nkumbula Island, Lake Tanganyika (Zambia).
It is distinct from its only congener,M. tenuidentatus, in having two (rarely one) rows of teeth on both jaws, a rounded distal margin on the pelvic fin, the outermost pelvic fin
soft ray length 1.23–1.43 times the innermost ray, a deeper body (depth 26.8–29.1% standard length) and the anal fin with
9 (rarely 8 or 10) soft rays. 相似文献

The embryonic, larval and juvenile development of blue whiting,Sillago parvisquamis Gill, are described from a series of laboratory-reared specimens. Mean egg diameter and mean total length (TL) of newly-hatched
larvae were 0.71 mm and 1.58 mm, respectively. The eggs were non-adhesive, buoyant and spherical with an oil globule (mean
diameter 0.18 mm). Hatching occurred about 20 hours after fertilization at a temperature of 24.0–25.0°C, newly-hatched larvae
having 38–40 myomeres. The yolk and oil globule were completely absorbed 3 days after hatching at 2.8–3.2 (mean 3.0) mm TL.
Notochord flexion was completed by 7.2–8.2 (7.7) mm TL, and pectoral and caudal fin rays fully developed by approximately
10 mm and 8.5 mm TL, respectively. Completion of fin development occurred in the following sequence: caudal, pectoral, anal
and second dorsal, first dorsal and pelvic, the last-mentioned by approximately 11 mm TL. The larvae ofS. parvisquamis andS. japonica, which closely resemble each other in general morphology and pigmentation, could be distinguished as follows. Newly-hatchedS. parvisquamis larvae had more myomeres thanS. japonica (38–40 vs. 32–34) and more melanophores on the dorsal surface of the body (19–28 vs. about 40).Sillago japonica had a vertical band of melanophores on the caudal peduncle, which was lacking in postflexionS. parvisquamis larvae. In addition, juveniles ofS. parvisquamis (larger than 23 mm TL) had melanophores on the body extending anteriorly to below the lateral line to form a midlateral band,
whereas no obvious band occurred on similarly-sizedS. japonica juveniles. 相似文献

A new bitterling, Rhodeus pseudosericeus sp. nov., is described on the basis of 31 specimens from five localities included in the Namhan River system, South Korea.
The new species is distinguished from other Rhodeus species by the following combination of characters: branched dorsal fin rays 9–10 (mode 9); branched anal fin rays 9–11 (mode
10); longest simple ray of dorsal fin strong and stiff, distally segmented; pelvic fin rays i, 6–7; iris of males blackish;
dorsal and anal fins of males grayish in breeding season; karyotype with 2n = 48 (8m + 20sm + 20st). Rhodeus pseudosericeus sp. nov. is similar to Rhodeus sericeus sericeus in the number of pelvic fin and branched dorsal fin rays and the melanophores present on the dorsal fin membrane, but differs
from the latter in having a greater body depth, more branched anal fin rays, fewer vertebrae, a lower number of scales in
the lateral series, and differing male nuptial coloration.

Ovarian maturation of the pufferTakifugu exascurus (Jordan et Snyder) was induced, and embryonic, larval and juvenile development was observed. The brood fish were collected
in Tassha Bay, Sado Island (38°05′N, 138°15′E), during the spawning season in 1986 which seemed to extend from late June to
mid-July. To each female 3 mg acetone-dried pituitary ofHypophthalmichthys molitrix was injected to induce ovarian maturation, which took place in about 77 hours at a water temperature of 19.5–21.0°C. The
eggs obtained by hormone injection were artificially fertilized with the milt from a collected male. The hatched larvae were
fed successively on rotifersBrachionus plicatilis, Artemia nauplii and minced fish meat, and reared for a period of about one year.
The eggs were spherical, 1.24±0.04mm in diameter, demersal and adhesive. The egg-membrane Was transparent and yolk was orange
in color, containing a cluster of small oil-globules. The incubation period was about 160 hours at a water temperature of
18.5–21.0°C. The newly-hatched larvae, measuring 2.9– 3.1 mm TL, had 8+15 = 23 myomeres. Absorption of the yolk was completed
3 days after hatching, by which time the larvae had attained 3.5–3.6 mm TL. Larval finfolds disappeared and rudimentary dorsal,
anal and caudal fins formed at 4.1–4.4 mm TL, in 6 days after hatching. In 9-day old larva (5.4 mm TL), fin ray rudiments
appeared on the dosai, anal and caudal fins and spine-like scale formed on the belly. In 16-day old specimens, 9.1–10.2 mm
TL, the full complements of fin rays were completed on all the fins and the fish reached the juvenile stage. The growth of
larvae and juveniles reared in 1986–1987 is expressed by the following equations, where y is total length (mm) and x is days
after hatching. y1 = 2.9420· 1.0639x 0 ≦ x ≦ 19 (r = 0.998) y2 = 4.0286· 1.0464x 19≦ x ≦ 33 (r = 0.998) y3 = 9.8854· 1.0180x 33 ≦ x ≦ 72 (r = 0.996) y4 = 20.1555· 1.0080x 72 ≦ x ≦ 115 (r = 0.998) y5 = 28.0610· 1.0049x 115 ≦ x ≦ 202 (r = 0.995) 相似文献

A stichaeid fish, Xenolumpenus longipterus gen. et sp. nov., is described on the basis of 2 specimens (107.1–114.9 mm in standard length) collected from 167 to 300 m
in the northern Sea of Japan off southern Hokkaido, Japan. Xenolumpenus is unique among all known genera of the subfamily Lumpeninae in having all pectoral, pelvic, and anal fin rays elongate and
unbranched with fin membranes well-incised. Xenolumpenus longipterus can be further distinguished from all species of the subfamily in having the following combination of characters: dorsal
fin XLVI–XLVIII; anal fin II, 28–29; pectoral fin 11; large black blotches on pectoral fin; and black ocellus on caudal fin. 相似文献

Synopsis FemaleGambusia affinis affinis were masculinized with the degraded products of 65% stigmastanol-30% B-sitosterol, a phytosterol. The masculinized females were paired with non-treated males, non-treated females, and other masculinized females. The pairs were analyzed for reproductive and aggressive behaviors exhibited. The behavioral patterns of these pairs were compared statistically to the behavior patterns of the following non-treated pairs: male with male, female with female, and male with female. The masculinized females behaved like males in that they followed, swung, and thrust their gonopodia at non-treated females and larger masculinized females. However, the male-like behavior of the masculinized females was not as intense as that of normal males. Also, the effect of masculinization on the behavior of the treated female was context-dependent as seen when placed with a male or a smaller masculinized female. Under these conditions the masculinized females behaved like typical females and exhibited no masculinized behaviors. The effects of anal spots and size differences are discussed as possible explanations for the variability in behaviors exhibited. The masculinized females displayed no change in aggressive behaviors. 相似文献

A new species of opisthoproctid, Dolichopteryx pseudolongipes, is described on the basis of three specimens (48.7–79.9 mm in standard length: SL) collected from the eastern Pacific Ocean.
This species is characterized by small tubular eyes (diameter 2.7–3.9% SL), presence of an adipose fin, anal fin base originating
under the dorsal fin base, relatively short predorsal (73.3–73.8% SL), prepelvic (64.3–67.9% SL), preanal (77.4–80.1% SL),
and preanus (71.5–75.7% SL) lengths; 31–33 (=9–10 + 22–24) gill rakers and 43–45 vertebrae. Although D. pseudolongipes had previously been confused with Dolichopteryx longipes, many differences between the species are apparent [e.g., adipose fin absent, anal fin base origin just behind dorsal fin
base, greater prepelvic length (70.3–72.7% SL), 25 gill rakers, and 46–47 vertebrae in D. longipes]. 相似文献
