台湾海峡鱼类物种多样性研究回顾

台湾海峡位于中国福建和台湾岛之间, 其特殊的海洋环境使得其鱼类物种多样性水平较高并独具特色。本文综述了台湾海峡鱼类物种多样性研究的历程和成果。20世纪以来, 台湾海峡鱼类物种多样性的研究可以划分为早期研究时期、研究起步时期、系统调查时期和综合研究时期4个阶段, 从最初以新种描述为主的零星报道, 到大规模系统性的综合调查和研究; 目前为止, 大陆文献共记录台湾海峡鱼类1390种, 台湾地区文献共记录鱼类1525种, 总计台湾海峡鱼类1697种。这些种类多数为暖水性广布种, 鱼类区系以印度-西太平洋暖水区的印度-马来亚区和中-日亚区过渡海区种为主; 今后台湾海峡鱼类物种多样性的研究应加强两岸合作, 并充分发挥数据库应用的优势地位。

RESEARCH REVIEW OF FISH SPECIES DIVERSITY IN TAIWAN STRAIT

Taiwan Strait that locates between Fujian Province and Taiwan Island has a unique and high diversity of fish species due to its special marine environment. We summarized the history and achievements of the diversity of fish species in Taiwan Strait in this paper. A series number of studies on diversity of marine species from home and abroad have been carried out since the 20th century. The history of the diversity of fish species on Taiwan Strait can be divided into four parts: Early Research Period, Start Research Period, Systematic Investigation Period, and Comprehen sive Research Period. The studies of China mainland indicate that the fish number of Taiwan Strait is 1390, while of Taiwan is 1525. The total fish species of Taiwan Strait is 1697. Most fish species of Taiwan Strait belong to India-Western Pacific warm water region: China to Japan sub-region and India-Malaysia sub-region, which are tropical and sub-tropical intertwined characteristics. We should strengthen the collaboration research of the diversity of fish species in Taiwan Strait and take advantage of database in the accumulation of fish biodiversity materials.
