Formalizing the names of subfamilies and tribes of ponyfishes (Leiognathidae Gill 1893).

چکیده
Several higher-level clades (subfamilies and tribes) of ponyfishes were introduced and diagnosed without the term "new" following the taxon names and without reference to a type genus. We correct these errors here so that the clade names comply with Articles 16.1 and 16.2, and Recommendation 16A of the Code (ICZN 2000, 4th edition), and may be formally recognized. Diagnoses for all of these clades were presented in Chakrabarty et al. (2011) and their membership updated in Sparks and Chakrabarty (2015).

Description of a new genus of ponyfishes (Teleostei: Leiognathidae), with a review of the current generic-level composition of the family.
In order to recognize a monophyletic taxonomy for Leiognathidae based on unique features of the bacterially mediated light-organ system, we describe a new sexually-dimorphic genus of elongate, shallow-bodied ponyfishes within the tribe Equulitini, which itself is recovered within the subfamily Gazzinae. Photolateralis, new genus, is unique among ponyfishes in possessing a translucent mid-latera...

Results indicate that Leiognathidae comprises two major clades, one consisting of species that exhibit internally sexually dimorphic light-organ systems (LOS), and the Leiognathus equulus species complex, whose members exhibit neither internal nor external sexual ...
