Paracheilinus alfiani,P。paineorum和P. Xanthocirritus是三个新物种,加入了闪光灯的wrass。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.
在我们深入研究所有不同的物种之前,我们要强调这些新描述是非常彻底的出版物的一部分,该出版物是“对Paracheilinus属的印度太平洋闪光灯扭曲的评论”,艾伦,埃尔德曼和Yusmalinda在《期刊》中海洋科学基金会。此免费下载可深入了解所有20种的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也许是三种新物种的闪光灯wrasse中最引人注目的。这个醒目的闪光灯从较小的Sunda群岛吹了脚,具有高圆形的鳍,是仅有的四个物种之一,没有任何细丝。
圆形的尾巴和鳍Paracheilinus alfiani给它一个独特的子弹形轮廓,形状几乎与相对较新的形状相同Paracheilinus rennyae。两个都P. Alfiani来自Alor和P. Rennyaefrom 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.
这篇《闪光灯卷曲》评论中的第二个新物种是Paracheilinus Paineorum来自Manado Sulawesi,以及整个印度尼西亚中部。已经建立了这种新的闪光灯wrasse物种,以包含以前被发现的物种,是丝状闪光灯wrasse物种复合物中的神秘物种之一Paracheilinus丝状。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具有相同的高光尾鳍鳍和丰富的丝鳍,但主要区别于主要是黄色的男性背鳍的颜色。[[JOSF这是给予的
