Specimens for research
Apr 20th, 2018 at 10:45am
 
Hello,

I am collaborating with a young researcher, Nicholas Sakich (currently at Brock University) and Prof Ryan Gregory (Univ. of Guelph). I need specimens of the following specimens for the production of blood smears as well as gill arches. This is for taxonomy and phylogenetics research.

The specimens most needed by Nicholas are:
Callopanchax sp.
Scriptaphyosemion sp.
Aphyosemion batesii/kunzi
A. coeleste
A. aureum
A. occellatum
A. citrineipinnis
Campellolebias sp.
Maratecoara sp.
Pituna sp.
Papiliolebias sp.
Plesiolebias sp.
"Rivulus" species, especially sp. DCT 89/132, Rivulus (Laimosemion) tecminae, and Rivulus (Laimosemion) sp. Tobogon.

Species are already in collection are:
Anablepsoides christinae
Aphyos. elberti
Aphyos. fulgens
Aphyos. striatum
Aplocheilichthys bukobanus
Aplocheilichthys katangae “ZAM 03-2”
Aplocheilus lineatus “Golden Wonder”
Austrofundulus leohoignei “Sanare VEN 2009-02”
Cynolebias itapicuruensis “Capim Grosso”
Epiplatys chaperi
Epiplatys spilagyreius
Epiplatys togolensis
Fenerbahce formosus
Fundulop. gardneri “N’sukka”,
Fundulop. gresensi “Takwai”
Fundulus heteroclitus
Hypsolebias sertanejo “Itacarambi”
Ilyodon whitei
Ilyodon xantusi
Jordanella floridae
Kryptol. marmoratus
Limia perugiae F 0.69
Micropoecilia picta
Nematolebias papilliferus “Inoa”
Nothob. brieni
Nothob. cardinalis
Nothob. flammicomantis“TAN 95-5”
Nothob. furzeri
Nothob. fuscotaeniatus “TAN 97-9”
Nothob. guentheri
Nothob. kadleci
Nothob. kafuensis Kayuni ZAM 07-1
Nothob. kilomberoensis
Nothob. kirki “MW 91-15”
Nothob. makondorum “MOZ 04-12”
Nothob. milvertzi “Lushiba Chienge
Nothob. ocellatus “TAN 00-20”
Nothob.  pienaari “KNP”
Nothob. rachovii "Lower Shire River"
Nothob. rubroreticulatus
Nothob. virgatus “SD 10-5”
Nothob. wattersi “Hoba MZMW 09-6”
Poecilia cf. orri
Poecilia wingei
Procatopus similis
Pterolebias longipinnis
Rivulus cylindraceus “Al Castro”

If a plan can be made to bring fish to Detroit I can make a plan to get them shipped down to me. (Sadly, no convention for me this year.)

AKA Membership, please support and contact Mr. Genade, and make a serious attempt to get him the specimens he needs.  This genome project offers to solve many problems and classifications of all killifish in our hobby.

Thanks for your support!

Tyrone,

I am submitting the following to you this coming week.  I hope this helps, we had discussed three of these, however, I had an unexpected fatality.  I used formalin 37% formaldehyde for the embalming agent.  Please advise if this is not a good choice, I'll use something else in the future.

Best wishes,

Jim Langan, AKA Webmaster

procatapus (sp) (sp) Olofa NG-MM-14
A. (sp) louessensis RPC-33/78
A. (sp) jeanhuberi Malinga GJH-212
A. (sp) schioetzi Ngombe Z91-1
