Lythrichthys
''Lythrichthys'', the red deepwater scorpionfishes, is a genus of marine ray-finned fish, belonging to the subfamily Setarchinae, the deep-sea bristly scorpionfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. They are native to the Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy ''Lythrichthys'' was first described as a genus in 1904 by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and Edwin Chapin Starks as a monotypic genus for ''Lythrichthys eulabes'' which they described with a type locality given as off Ose Point in Suruga Bay in Japan. ''L. eulabes'' was later placed in the genus '' Setarches'' and ''Lythrichthys'' became a synonym of that taxon. However, in 2021 Wada, Kai & Motomura resurrected the genus, added ''L. cypho'' (which had been treated as a synonym of''Setarches longimanus''), as well as ''L. longimanus'', and described two new species. This left the channelled rockfish (''Setarches guentheri'') as the only species in the now monotypic ''Setarches'' As of January 2022 this change has bee ...

Channelled Rockfish
The channelled rockfish (''Setarches guentheri''), also known as the deepwater scorpionfish, is a species of marine ray-finned fish, belonging to the subfamily Setarchinae, the deep-sea bristly scorpionfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. It has a wide distribution in tropical and subtropical oceans. Taxonomy The channelled rockfish was first formally described in 1862 by the English zoologist James Yate Johnson with the type locality given as Madeira. In his description Johnson placed the new species in the new monotypic genus ''Setarches''. Subsequent workers added other species to this genus but in 1966 William N. Eschmeyer and Bruce B. Collette synonymised most of these with ''S. guentheri'' making ''Setarches'' consist only of this species and ''S. longimanus''. This was later re-examined and 3 species were accepted as belonging to the genus ''Setarches'': '' S. armata'', ''S. guentheri'' and '' S. longimanus''.

Setarchinae
Setarchinae, the deep-sea bristly scorpionfishes, is a small subfamily of deep-sea ray-finned fishes, it is part of the family Scorpaenidae. They are small marine fishes, growing up to 25 cm, and are found in tropical and subtropical waters throughout the world. Taxonomy Setarchinae, or the family Setarchidae, were first described as a taxon by the Japanese ichthyologist Kiyomatsu Matsubara in 1943. The grouping is treated as a subfamily of the Scorpaenidae within the order Scorpaeniformes by the 5th Edition of ''Fishes of the World''. However, other authorities, such as FishBase, regard the taxon as a family within the suborder Scorpaenoidei, part of the Perciformes. The name of the subfamily comes from ''Setarches'' which was described by the English zoologist James Yate Johnson in 1862 but Johnson did not explain what the name alluded to, it may be derived from ''saeta'' meaning "bristle". Genera The following four genera are classified within the subfamily Setarchinae, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

David Starr Jordan
David Starr Jordan (January 19, 1851 – September 19, 1931) was the founding president of Stanford University, serving from 1891 to 1913. He was an ichthyologist during his research career. Prior to serving as president of Stanford University, he had served as president of Indiana University from 1884 to 1891. Starr was also a strong supporter of eugenics, and his published views expressed a fear of "race-degeneration" and asserted that cattle and human beings are "governed by the same laws of selection". He was an antimilitarist since he believed that war killed off the best members of the gene pool, and he initially opposed American involvement in World War I. Early life and career Jordan was born in Gainesville, New York, and grew up on a farm in upstate New York. His parents made the unorthodox decision to educate him at a local girls' high school. His middle name, Starr, does not appear in early census records, and was apparently self-selected; he had begun using ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Indo-West Pacific
The Indo-Pacific is a vast biogeographic region of Earth. In a narrow sense, sometimes known as the Indo-West Pacific or Indo-Pacific Asia, it comprises the tropical waters of the Indian Ocean, the western and central Pacific Ocean, and the seas connecting the two in the general area of Indonesia. It does not include the temperate and polar regions of the Indian and Pacific oceans, nor the Tropical Eastern Pacific, along the Pacific coast of the Americas, which is also a distinct marine realm. The term is especially useful in marine biology, ichthyology, and similar fields, since many marine habitats are continuously connected from Madagascar to Japan and Oceania, and a number of species occur over that range, but are not found in the Atlantic Ocean. The region has an exceptionally high species richness, with the world's highest species richness being found in at its heart in the Coral Triangle, and a remarkable gradient of decreasing species richness radiating outward in a ...

Swim Bladder
The swim bladder, gas bladder, fish maw, or air bladder is an internal gas-filled Organ (anatomy), organ that contributes to the ability of many bony fish (but not cartilaginous fish) to control their buoyancy, and thus to stay at their current water depth without having to expend energy in swimming. Also, the Dorsum (biology), dorsal position of the swim bladder means the center of mass is below the centroid, center of volume, allowing it to act as a stabilizing agent. Additionally, the swim bladder functions as a resonator, resonating chamber, to produce or receive sound. The swim bladder is evolutionarily Homology (biology), homologous to the lungs. Charles Darwin remarked upon this in ''On the Origin of Species''.Darwin, Charles (1859''Origin of Species''Page 190, reprinted 1872 by D. Appleton. Darwin reasoned that the lung in air-breathing vertebrates had derived from a more primitive swim bladder. In the embryonic stages, some species, such as Ophioblennius atlanticus, ...

Standard Length
Fish measurement is the measuring of individual fish and various parts of their anatomies. These data are used in many areas of ichthyology, including taxonomy and fisheries biology. Overall length * Standard length (SL) is the length of a fish measured from the tip of the snout to the posterior end of the last vertebra or to the posterior end of the midlateral portion of the hypural plate. Simply put, this measurement excludes the length of the caudal (tail) fin. * Total length (TL) is the length of a fish measured from the tip of the snout to the tip of the longer lobe of the caudal fin, usually measured with the lobes compressed along the midline. It is a straight-line measure, not measured over the curve of the body. Standard length measurements are used with Teleostei (most bony fish), while total length measurements are used with Myxini (hagfish), Petromyzontiformes (lampreys), and (usually) Elasmobranchii (sharks and rays), as well as some other fishes.
