Notes on the congrid eel genus Parabathymyrus from the western Pacific Ocean, with the description of a new species (Pisces: Anguilliformes: Congridae).
The congrid eel genus Parabathymyrus from the western Pacific Ocean is reviewed and three species are recognized: Parabathymyrus macrophthalmus from Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam and Australia, P. brachyrhynchus from Taiwan, Vietnam, the Philippines, Vanuatu and Solomon Islands, and a new species, P. philippinensis sp. nov., is described based on two specimens collected from the Philippines. These thr...
متن کاملHelminth parasites from the stomach of conger eel, Conger conger, from Madeira Island, Atlantic Ocean.
Geographic variations in the diversity and prevalence of helminth parasites of fish can provide important clues as to the relatedness of fish populations. In the present work, the stomachs of 64 conger eels, Conger conger, collected during 1999 and 2000, were examined for the presence of parasites. Four fish were infected with L3 stages of the nematode Anisakis simplex s.l. (Anisakidae), 1 with...
متن کاملAspects of Metamorphosis and Habitat Use in the Conger Eel, Conger oceanicus
The early life history of the conger eel, Conger oceanicus, has been the focus of only a few studies. These have emphasized larval development and distribution; little is known about its metamorphosis and settlement. To quantify changes in body proportions, dentition, and pigmentation of metamorphosing C. oceanicus during these transitions, we collected leptocephali, glass eels, elvers, and juv...
متن کاملMetabolism of a Glycosaminoglycan during Metamorphosis in the Japanese Conger eel, Conger myriaster
Hyaluronan (HA) is a linear polysaccharide of high molecular weight that exists as a component of the extracellular matrix. The larvae (leptocephali) of the Japanese conger eel (Anguilliformes: Conger myriaster) have high levels of hyaluronan (HA) which is thought to help control body water content. We isolated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) from Japanese conger eel leptocephali and measured the cha...
متن کاملRedescription of Cucullanus robustus (Nematoda: Cucullanidae) from the conger eel Conger myriaster off Korea
The nematode Cucullanus robustus Yamaguti, 1935 (Cucullanidae) is redescribed from specimens collected from the intestine of Conger myriaster (Brevoort) (Osteichthyes) collected off the southern coast of South Korea in September 2005. Examinations of its morphology by both light and scanning electron microscopy (latter used in this species for the first time) revealed the presence of a previous...
