Chlidichthys cacatuoides Gill & Randall
Chlidichthys cacatuoides Gill & Randall Cockatoo Dottyback Figure 3 Chlidichthys cacatuoides Gill & Randall, 1994: 13, figs. 2 and 3 (type locality: Sawda Island, Al Hallaniyah Islands, Oman); Gill & Edwards, 2004: 11, figs. 1 c, 2 c and 5, pl. 1 E (description, synonymy, distribution, colour photo). This species was described by Gill and Randall (1994) on the basis of three specimens collected in 21 m on the edge of rocky bottom and adjacent rubble in the Hallaniyah Islands, southern Oman. Two specimens of this species were captured in the Socotra Archipelago, one in 15–20 m at Socotra Island, and the other in 27–29 m at Darsa Island. Considering these records, the species appears to have a preference for deeper habitats (15–30 m), e.g. at lower reef slopes and bases. The specimens agree well with the original description, and were used in a subsequent description of the species by Gill and Edwards (2004). Material examined.

Oral history interview with Calvin Anthony
Calvin Anthony attended Oklahoma State University (OSU) his freshman and sophomore years, 1963-1965, and while working part-time at a local drugstore he decided to pursue pharmacy and transferred. He recalls his early life growing up in Carney, Oklahoma, as the son of a rancher and general store owner and his time as a student at OSU. Anthony discusses acquiring Tiger Drug, becoming involved in politics, and serving on the OSU/A&M Board of Regents. He also shares what OSU means to him.The O-STATE Stories Oral History collection is comprised of interviews which chronicle the rich history, heritage, and traditions of Oklahoma State University
Gymnoxenisthmus Gill, Bogorodsky & Mal 2014
Gymnoxenisthmus Gill, Bogorodsky & Mal, 2014 Gymnoxenisthmus Gill et al., 2014: 492 (type species G. tigrellus Gill, Bogorodsky & Mal, 2014, by original designation and monotypy). Diagnosis. The following combination of characters distinguishes Gymnoxenisthmus from other xenisthmid genera: head pores absent; scales lacking; first dorsal fin with five spines; second dorsal-fin rays I,13; most segmented dorsal- and anal-fin rays branched; pelvic fin with a spine and five unbranched rays. Remarks. The discovery of Gymnoxenisthmus flavicinctus new species necessitates revision of the original diagnosis for the genus. Previously we listed the presence of branched pectoral-fin rays as a diagnostic character of the genus, but the new species has entirely unbranched pectoral-fin rays. Entirely unbranched pectoral-fin rays is one of several characters that we proposed as synapomorphies of a clade consisting of Tyson Springer (1983), Rotuma Springer (1988) and Allomicrodesmus Schultz in Schultz et al. (1966). The new species lacks the remaining proposed synapomorphies of this clade (all segmented second dorsal-fin rays unbranched; all segmented anal-fin rays unbranched; ceratohyals represented by a single ossification). This distribution of derived characters suggests that the new species should be placed in its own genus as sister-group to the Tyson + Rotuma + Allomicrodesmus clade. However, the general similarity in form and coloration suggests the two species are closely related. We are also reluctant to erect additional monotypic genera when the osteology of neither species has been adequately studied. We note, however, that synapomorphies linking the two species are lacking, and the possibility remains that the genus as recognised here is paraphyletic. Further testing must await the discovery of additional specimens for more detailed anatomical study.Published as part of Gill, Anthony C., Bogorodsky, Sergey V. & Mal, Ahmad O., 2019, Description of a second species of Gymnoxenisthmus from the Red Sea (Teleostei: Gobioidei: Xenisthmidae), pp. 177-183 in Zootaxa 4590 (1) on pages 177-178, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4590.1.8, http://zenodo.org/record/265158
