Phylogenetic classification of bony fishes

Evaluating economic performance of bony fishes companies in Gilan province

This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of Gilan trawling cooperatives. In this research, the descriptive statistics and break-even analysis method was used and the data of this research were collected by using a questionnaire from trawling cooperatives for the fishing season of 1396. The results showed that the cooperatives of Rasht and Astara with the average of 111829 and 7710 k...

The Peripheral Nervous System of the Bony Fishes

Simultaneous analysis of five molecular markers provides a well-supported phylogenetic hypothesis for the living bony-tongue fishes (Osteoglossomorpha: Teleostei).

Fishes of the Superorder Osteoglossomorpha (the "bonytongues") constitute a morphologically heterogeneous group of basal teleosts, including highly derived subgroups such as African electric fishes, the African butterfly fish, and Old World knifefishes. Lack of consensus among hypotheses of osteoglossomorph relationships advanced during the past 30 years may be due in part to the difficulty of ...

Evolution and phylogeny of gonad morphology in bony fishes.

Gonad morphology at the gross anatomical or histological levels has long been studied by fisheries biologists to identify annual reproductive cycles and length of breeding season, among other goals. Comparative surveys across vertebrate taxa have not been detailed enough, however, to describe fully the differences and similarities among gonads of bony fishes and other vertebrates, and to use go...

Phylogenetic Interrelationships of Ginglymodian Fishes (Actinopterygii: Neopterygii)

The Ginglymodi is one of the most common, though poorly understood groups of neopterygians, which includes gars, macrosemiiforms, and "semionotiforms." In particular, the phylogenetic relationships between the widely distributed "semionotiforms," and between them and other ginglymodians have been enigmatic. Here, the phylogenetic relationships between eight of the 11 "semionotiform" genera, fiv...
