A new species of the gobiid genus Gobius (Gobiidae, Perciformes), Gobius incognitus sp. nov. is described from the Mediterranean Sea, and its most morphologically similar species Gobius bucchichi is redescribed. The new species is distinguished from its congeners by: scales in lateral series 51–59; predorsal scales 25–35; opercle scaled in adults with 10–16 scales present; pectoral fin with ray count 18–20 and free tips on upper rays well developed and on the first ray longer than two thirds of the entire ray length; pelvic disc complete and with well‐developed anterior membrane without lateral lobes; anterior oculoscapular canal with pore α at rear of orbit; oculoscapular row x1 not extending forwards to pore β; suborbital row d discontinuous with large gap below suborbital rows 3 and 4; eye diameter 1·08–1·32 in snout length; by pigment rows on cheek and pigmentation on pectoral‐fin base. 相似文献

In the field, parental males of the black goby Gobius niger were always >9 cm L T , showed a conspicuous elongation of the first dorsal fin, and were darkly coloured. Larger parental males did not occupy larger nests or obtain more eggs, suggesting that over a threshold size reproductive success was not correlated with male size. The mating system was polygynous with different egg clutches simultaneously present in a nest. Smaller sexually mature males were observed around and inside nests in which spawning was occurring. These opportunistic males ranged in body size between 6 to 8 cm L T . In contrast to parental males, they did not show an exaggeration of the first dorsal fin and were cryptically coloured, thus resembling small females in their external morphology. Aquarium experiments confirmed that smaller males perform a sneaking behaviour, releasing sperm when parental males spawn. As a consequence, it is possible to define three male types: type I are small, without an elongated dorsal fin and adopt a sneaking mating tactic; type III are large, have a pronounced elongation of the dorsal fin and perform parental behaviour; type II are intermediate both in size and elongation of the first dorsal fin and behave as either as sneakers or, possibly, as parental males according to nest availability and male competition. 相似文献

Male black goby Gobius niger , adopting parental or sneaking tactics, differed in secondary sex traits (elongation of the 4th ray of the first dorsal fin and black nuptial colouration) thus allowing the classification of wild-caught males. Parental males were larger and older than sneaker males, suggesting that the mating tactic is an expression of an ontogenetic gradient. Males adopting alternative tactics differed also in primary sex traits, including their testes and their two pairs of accessory structures: the seminal vesicles and mesorchial glands. Sneaker males had a higher investment in testes, while parental males showed larger seminal vesicles and more developed mesorchial glands. Histological analyses also showed that seminal vesicles from parental males presented some functional differences from those of sneakers. In the former these organs were devoted solely to mucin secretion, while in the latter they stored sperm and had a lower activity of secretion. Seminal vesicle features influenced ejaculate (sperm trail) characteristics and performance. Parental male trails were richer in mucins, but poorer in sperm than trails deposited by sneakers. As a consequence, while sneakers produced trails that released a large amount of immediately active sperm, trails laid by parental males released less sperm more constantly over a long time. 相似文献

Summary Histological and histochemical observations on the testis of Gobius paganellus during all seasons of the year are described. In the yearly reproductive cycle, spawning in the Gulf of Naples occured from June through August, testicular recovery and relative inactivity from September through December, and active spermatogenesis from January to May.Germ cells develop as clones from single primary spermatogonia, each clone in a follicle enveloped by cells which are interpreted as Sertoli cell homologues.Glandular tissue is present in large amounts both in the form of interstitial islets and as a large mass along the length of the mesorchium. Cholesterolpositive lipids and 5-3-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, presumptive evidence for steroid production, are present exclusively in this tissue.Lipids are present in the glandular cells in acidic and neutral forms. The acid fats are the more abundant, but neutral lipids increase in amount in the period April-June. There is, furthermore, a cyclic variation in lipid droplet size, small droplets being present in the spring (during active spermatogenesis) and fewer, larger droplets during the fall (post-spawning period). Phospholipids are lacking.Lactic dehydrogenase activity was weak in the relatively inactive postspawning period, but was much more intense during active spermatogenesis.The glandular tissue in the testis of Gobius is interpreted as homologous with the interstitial (Leydig) tissue found in the testes of higher vertebrates.This investigation was supported by research grant RG-6455 from the Division of General Medical Sciences, U.S. Public Health Service.Postdoctoral Fellow from the Division of General Medical Sciences, U.S. Public Health Service.

The chromosome set of G. melanostomus (Pallas) consists of 46 acrocentric chromosomes (2n-46). There are 30 chromosomes in the caryotype of G. batrachocephalus (Pallas): 16 metacentric and 14 acrocentric. The equal number of arms in the chromosome sets of the studied fish (FN-46) evidences for phylogenetic relationships of these species. 相似文献

Ion transport in the intestine of Gobius niger, a euryhaline teleost, was studied in both isotonic and hypotonic conditions. Isolated tissues, mounted in Ussing chambers and bilaterally perfused with isotonic Ringer solution, developed a serosa negative transepithelial voltage and a short circuit current indicating a net negative current in absorptive direction. Bilateral removal of Cl- and Na+ from the bathing solutions as well as the luminal removal of K+in the presence of Ba2+(10(-3) M) almost abolished both Vt and Isc. Similar results were obtained by adding bumetanide (10(-5)M) to the luminal bath while other inhibitors of Cl- transport mechanisms were ineffective. These observations suggest that salt absorption begins with a coupled entry of Na+, Cl-, and K+ across the apical membrane; a Ba2+inhibitable K+ conductance, demonstrated also by micropuncture experiments, recycles the ion into the lumen. Salt entry into the cell is driven by the operation of the basolateral Na+/K(+)-ATPase since serosal ouabain (10(-4)M) completely abolished both Vt and Isc; this pump also completes the Na(+) absorption. The inhibitory effect of both serosal bumetanide (10(-4)M) and SITS (5 x 10(-4)M) suggests that Cl- would leave the cell via the KCl cotransport, the Cl/HCO3- antiport and/or conductive pathways. Bilateral exposure of tissues to hypotonic media produced a reduction of both the transepithelial voltage and the short circuit current probably due to the activation of homeostatic ionic fluxes involved in cell volume regulation. The results of experiments with both isolated enterocytes and intestine exposed to hypotonic solution suggested that the recovery of cell volume, after the initial cell swelling, involves a parallel opening of K+ and Cl- channels to facilitate net solute and water effluxes from the cell.

Unidentified hyperbenthic gobiid juveniles were collected while SCUBA diving at Oštro, in the Kvarner area, northern Adriatic Sea from 1996 to 2000. An additional 23 specimens of this form were collected at Oštro on 13 May 2002. They were kept alive and reared in the aquarium. Groups of specimens were sacrified periodically to study changes in morphology and growth. From the data acquired the hyperbenthic juveniles were identified as those of the red‐mouthed goby Gobius cruentatus . The present findings provide data on the unusual morphology and ecology of G. cruentatus juveniles. 相似文献

Chromosome analysis of 53 specimens from a population of Gobius fallax has revealed inter- and intra-individual variation in the diploid number (2n=38–43) arising mainly through Robertsonian translocations. The presence of a small biarmed chromosome in a few cells from 3 males as well as the numerous multivalent configurations in meiotic plates and the apparent association between the NOR-chromosomes and other acrocentrics suggest that this polymorphism has an inherited as well as a somatic origin and that some translocations may involve more than two acrocentric pairs simultaneously. 相似文献

The biology of the giant goby, Gobius cobitis Pallas, from a rocky shore in Brittany is described. The fish inhabits tidepools on the upper part of the shore and feeds mainly on algae and Crustacea. It attains an age of at least 10 years and grows to about 230 mm in total length. Breeding occurs in spring and early summer and females spawn twice each season. Fecundity varies from approximately 2 to 12,000 and is dependent upon size. The food and growth is briefly compared with that of a Mediterranean population. 相似文献

Pituitaries of Gobium niger are previously cultured separately for periods of time varying from 6 to 20 days. Therafter, their gonadotropic potency is tested by associating them during three days with explants of glandular tissue from testis as effectors: in each case, a new fish gives a controll pituitary and three testicular explants. The latter are distributed into (1) controll explant, (2) explant associated with controll pituitary, (3) explant associated with a previously cultured pituitary. The results indicate that a gonadotropic potency subsists in the pituitary even after 20 days of isolated culture. 相似文献

Distributional pattern of the neuromasts has been described for Gobius striatus Day. The neuromasts are arranged in several lines. Canal formation, like many gobiids, is suppressed to varying extent. The supraorbital line presents interesting variations. The supraorbital lines of the two sides are separate from each other even in the so-called common ‘interorbital chamber’. An outstanding feature of the neuromast system of the fish is the great development of the supramaxillary line which is perhaps best developed in this case. 相似文献

A molecular cytogenetic study of Gobius niger has been conducted by treating its mitotic chromosomes with silver-, CMA3- and DAPI-staining and fluorescent in situ hybridization using four multicopy or repetitive DNAs (the 28S and 5S rDNAs, the TTAGGG telomeric repeat and the mariner-like elements) as probes. In particular, the study proved the presence of NOR heteromorphism and suggested the possible role
of the transposable element mariner in its genesis. In situ hybridization with the 5S rDNA probe proved the presence of just one 5S-bringing chromosome pair, whereas hybridization with
the telomeric repeat revealed small bright hybridization spots, uniform in size and intensity, on each telomere of all chromosomes
but no interstitial signals were noticed.
