Parachachilinus Alfiani,P. peaceorum和P. Xanthocirritus是加入荧光盛人队的三种新物种。这三个新的描述Paracheilinusis part of a massive review of the genus overall and it sorts out a few of the loose forms of flasher wrasses that recreational divers have documenting in recent years.
在我们潜入所有不同的物种之前,我们希望强调这些新描述是一个非常彻底的出版物的一部分,这是由艾伦,埃尔德曼和yusmalinda在杂志中的“帕拉基洛尼斯属的印度闪光运动员的审查”的一部分海洋科学基金会。这个免费下载始终深入了解所有20种Paracheilinusfrom East Africa and the Red Sea, through the Indo-Pacific and out to Fiji and the Marshall Islands. If you’re into flasher wrasses at all, this 79 page review is essentially a free booklet on this iconic group of reef fish.
Paracheilinus alfiani也许是最引人注目的三种新的闪光灯濑鱼。从较小的Sunda岛上唤醒闪光灯伴随着高圆形的鳍,是只有四种物种之一,没有任何一丝长丝从其边缘发出。
圆形的尾巴和鳍Paracheilinus alfiani给它一个独特的子弹形轮廓,它与相对较新的形状几乎相同Parachachilinus Rennyae.。两个都P. Alfiani来自Alor和P. Rennyae.from Flores are separated by only a few hundred miles but surveys have only turned up these species in very restricted areas, but none in between. Despite having different male coloration, it’s clear that these two species are pretty closely related and future work could synonymize these two fish in the future.
闪光灯伴随的评论中的第二种新物种是Paracheilinus peaceorum从万鸦老苏拉威西岛,在中央Indonesia. This new species of flasher wrasse has been erected to contain what was previously discovered to be one of the cryptic species within the Filamented flasher wrasse species complex,Parachachilinus filmationosus。The ‘true’ filamented wrasse is now restricted to Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands and is replaced byP, paineorumin the Southwest of its range.
The third new flasher wrasse species,Paracheilinus xanthocirritus, is also formerly of the P. filamentosus complex. It is found in the extreme northwest of Indonesia, north and west of Borneo and nearly to Singapore. LikeP. paineorum新的Paracheilinus xanthocirritus具有相同的高度LUNATE尾鳍和大量细胞翅片,但它主要是在主要是黄色的雄性背鳍的着色。[乔斯夫]
