Adrianichthys
''Adrianichthys'' is a genus of ricefishes. The genus is endemic to Lake Poso in Sulawesi, Indonesia. All four species are considered seriously threatened and two of these, ''A. kruyti'' and ''A. roseni'', have not been recorded for decades, leading to fears that they already are extinct.Parenti, L.R.

Adrianichthys Oophorus
The egg-carrying buntingi (''Adrianichthys oophorus'') is a species of fish in the family Adrianichthyidae. It is endemic to Lake Poso in Sulawesi, Indonesia. Information The egg-carrying buntingi is known to be found in a freshwater environment within a pelagic depth range. This species is native to a tropical environment. The maximum recorded length of the egg-carrying buntingi as an unsexed male is about 8.5 centimeters or about 3.34 inches. The most common recorded length for this species as an unsexed male is about 6.5 centimeters or about 2.55 inches. This species is distributed in the areas of Asia or Indonesia.

The egg-carrying buntingi can be specifically found in the Lake Poso in central Sulawesi. This species has the ability to live in an aquarium as long as it is a freshwater aquarium. Male and female egg-carrying buntingi can be distinguished by the size o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Adrianichthys Roseni
''Adrianichthys roseni'' is a species of ricefish, a member of the family Adrianichthyidae which is endemic to Lake Poso on Sulawesi. Since the holotype was collected in 1978 there have been no reports of this species and if it still exists then it has a very low population. The IUCN categorise it as Critically Endangered (Possibly Extinct). The specific name honours Donn Eric Rosen (1929-1986) of the American Museum of Natural History The American Museum of Natural History (abbreviated as AMNH) is a natural history museum on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City.

Ricefish
The ricefishes are a family (Adrianichthyidae) of small ray-finned fish that are found in fresh and brackish waters from India to Japan and out into the Malay Archipelago, most notably Sulawesi (where the Lake Poso and Lore Lindu species are known as buntingi). The common name ricefish derives from the fact that some species are found in rice paddies. This family consists of about 37 species in two genera (some recognize a third, ''Xenopoecilus''). Several species are rare and threatened, and some 2–4 may already be extinct. Description Most of these species are quite small, making them of interest for aquaria. ''Adrianichthys'' reach lengths of depending on the exact species involved, while the largest ''Oryzias'' reaches up to . Most ''Oryzias'' species are less than a half this length, with the smallest being up to only long. They have a number of distinctive features, including an unusual structure to the jaw, and the presence of an additional bone in the tail. The ...

Lake Poso
Lake Poso ( id, Danau Poso) is a lake in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, and the third-deepest lake in Indonesia. The town of Pendolo is situated at the southern end of the lake, the town of Tentena is located at the northern end, while a number of smaller villages dot the shoreline. The lake drains into the Poso River at Tentena, which flows into the Molucca Sea at the town of Poso. Ecology The lake contains various fish, including the eel '' Anguilla marmorata'' which migrates between the lake and the sea, and 11 fish species that are endemic to the lake, notably buntingi ricefish ('' Adrianichthys'', '' Oryzias nebulosus'', '' O. nigrimas'' and '' O. orthognathus''), gobies ('' Mugilogobius amadi'' and '' M. sarasinorum''), and the halfbeak '' Nomorhamphus celebensis''. These endemics are all highly threatened; in some cases possibly already extinct. One of the reasons for the drastic decline of the native fish are introduced, non-native species, particularly Mozambique ti ...

Oryzias
''Oryzias'' is a genus of ricefishes native to fresh and brackish water in east and south Asia. Some species are widespread and the Japanese rice fish (''O. latipes'') is commonly used in science as a model organism, while others have very small ranges and are threatened. They are small, up to long, and most are relatively plain in colour. The genus name ''Oryzias'' is a reference to the scientific name for rice, '' Oryza''. They have an unusual reproductive behavior where the female facultatively carries the eggs in a cluster at the pelvic or anal fins for a period after they have been fertilized. Species There are currently 33 recognized species in this genus: * '' Oryzias asinua'' Parenti, Hadiaty, Lumbantobing & Herder, 2013 * '' Oryzias bonneorum'' Parenti, 2008 * '' Oryzias carnaticus'' Jerdon, 1849 * '' Oryzias celebensis'' M.

Max Carl Wilhelm Weber
Max Carl Wilhelm Weber van Bosse or Max Wilhelm Carl Weber (5 December 1852, in Bonn – 7 February 1937, in Eerbeek) was a German-Dutch zoologist and biogeographer. Weber studied at the University of Bonn, then at the Humboldt University in Berlin with the zoologist Eduard Carl von Martens (1831–1904). He obtained his doctorate in 1877. Weber taught at the University of Utrecht then participated in an expedition to the Barents Sea. He became Professor of Zoology, Anatomy and Physiology at the University of Amsterdam in 1883. In the same year he received naturalised Dutch citizenship. His discoveries as leader of the Siboga Expedition led him to propose Weber's line, which encloses the region in which the mammalian fauna is exclusively Australasian, as an alternative to Wallace's Line. As is the case with plant species, faunal surveys revealed that for most vertebrate groups Wallace’s line was not the most significant biogeographic boundary. The Tanimbar Island group, and ...
