Abstract:

Following the discovery of spinoid scales in species of the cardinalfish genus Siphamia, a survey of 20 apogonid genera, using scanning electron microscopy, found that scale ontogeny in the Apogonidae usually proceeds along three phases, cycloid, spinoid and transforming ctenoid, that develop in that order. The transforming ctenoid scales of the Pempheridae, considered a sister group of the Apgogonidae by some authors, follow the same ontogenetic pattern. Transforming ctenoid scales are the ancestral scale type in the Apogonidae, making their spinoid and cycloid scales a secondary loss or reve

Abstract:

The study of morphological characteristics and growth information in fish scales is a crucial component of modern fishery biological research, while it has been less studied in fossil materials. This paper presents a detailed morphological description and growth analysis of a fossil ctenoid scale obtained from the Upper Cretaceous Campanian lacustrine deposits in northeastern China. The morphological features of this fossil scale are well-preserved and consistent with the structures found in ctenoid scales of extant fish species and display prominent ring ornamentation radiating outward from t

Cryptocentrus altipinna, n. sp. is described as a new species, distinguished from other species of Cryptocentrus in having ctenoid scales on the body, a high first dorsal fin, and the predorsal area without scales.

The new species  is most similar to C. caeruleomaculatus and C. strigilliceps, forming a complex characterized mainly by having ctenoid scales posteriorly on the body (vs. all cycloid), among a set of other

Despite its atypical thecal plate pattern, Lagynocystis pyramidalis (Jaekel, 1918) (Middle Ordovician, Northern Gondwanaland) is composed of normally positioned marginal plates on the left side of the theca, whereas those on the right side are shortened or missing in comparison with marginal plates of other ankyroids. The only somatic on the lower thecal surface is the CS plate. The abnormally long distal aulacophore, reduced theca, and internal ctenoid organ are interpreted as adaptations to deep water, dysaerobic environmental conditions.

Abstract:

Recycling of secondary fish resources is an important task for the organization of efficient and environmentally friendly production, taking into account the principle of resource conservation. To develop a comprehensive technology for processing fish scales, an in-depth and complete study of its types, chemical composition and dimensional and mass characteristics is necessary. It has been established that the scales of the fish of the Astrakhan region are represented by two types: ganoid (in sturgeon) and elasmoid (in most commercial and pond fish).

The method was tested on ctenoid scales from mullets collected from different areas of the Gulf of Mexico and Aegean Sea.

Engineering marvels found throughout the exclusive structural features of biological surfaces have given rise to the progressive development of skin friction drag reduction. However, despite many previous works reporting forward drag reduction where the bio-inspired surface features are aligned with the flow direction, it is still challenging to achieve bidirectional drag reduction for non-morphable surface structures. Inspired by the flounder ctenoid scales characterized by tilted, millimeter-sized oval fins embedded with sub-millimeter spikes, we fabricate a bionic flounder two-tier structur

Abstract:

Pempheris flavicycla is described as a new species of sweeper (Perciformes: Pempheridae) from the Indian Ocean, including the Red Sea. It has a bright yellow ring around the pupil of the eye, a black outer border on the anal and caudal fins, a black spot at the base of the pectoral fins, 38–44 anal soft rays, 54–61 lateral-line scales, and 29–33 gill rakers. It is found in clear-water, coral-reef areas not exposed to heavy seas, and usually in less than 15 m. Two subspecies are recognized: Pempheris flavicycla flavicycla from Oman, Tanzania (type locality Mafia Island), Kenya (Wasini Island),

Abstract:

Homalozoans include four classes of non-pentamerous Paleozoic echinoderms: Homostelea (cinctans), Ctenocystoidea (ctenoid-bearing homalozoans), Homoiostelea (solutes), and Stylophora (cornutes and mitrates). Their atypical morphologies have historically made it difficult to relate them to other classes. Therefore, their systematic positions have been represented by two hypotheses (H): as stem taxa to echinoderms (H1) or as stem taxa to chordates (H2). These conclusions rest on previous inability to recognize synapomorphies with more crownward echinoderms, resulting in a forcing of the homalozo
