Leucascus lobatus Rapp 2004
No full text<i>Leucascus lobatus</i> Rapp, 2004 <p> <i>Diagnosis:</i> Cortex composed of tripods with a fourth rudimentary actine. Skeleton of the tubes composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines.</p> <p> <i>Synonymies: Leucosolenia primordialis</i>: Brøndsted 1933: 4 (see Rapp 2004), <i>Leucascus lobatus</i>: Rapp 2004: 119.</p> <p> <i>Type material:</i> ZMUC POR-245 (Holotype; Kap Farvel (6007.7’N, 4417’W), Greenland; Kap Farvel Expedition; 08/08/1970; depth: 230 to 250 m; substratum composed of large stones).</p> <p> <i>Type locality:</i> Kap Farvel, Greenland.</p> <p> <i>Description:</i> Colour is white after fixation. The cormus is lobate and the oscula are surrounded by membrane. The surface is smooth and perforated by inhalant apertures (Figure 6 A). The tubes are tightly and regularly anastomosed. The atrial surface is smooth. Reproductive elements are present.</p> <p>Skeleton: The cortical membrane could be recognized only in some regions (Figure 6 B). The cortical skeleton is formed by tripods varying in size and organized in several layers. These spicules are exclusively cortical. Triactines with cylindrical actines are also present in the cortical skeleton, surrounding the inhalant apertures. The skeleton of the tubes is composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines. This last category of spicule projects the apical actine into the lumen of the tubes (Figure 6 C), but smooth tubes are also present. The atrial skeleton is composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines.</p> <p> <i>Spicules</i> (Table 4):</p> <p> (<i>i</i>) Tripods (Figure 6 D): Regular and variable in size. Actines are straight with blunt tips, but they are not stout as typical tripods. A fourth rudimentary actine is present;</p> <p> (<i>ii</i>) Triactines (Figure 6 E): Regular, except around the inhalant apertures where they are sagittal. Actines are cylindrical, straight, and with blunt or sharp tips;</p> <p> (<i>iii</i>) Tetractines (Figure 6 E): Similar to the triactines, but with an apical actine that is shorter than the basal ones and ornamented with small spines (Figure 6 F).</p> <p> <i>Remarks:</i> According to Rapp (2004), tetractines are also present in the cortical skeleton of <i>L. lobatus</i>, but in the present work these spicules were found only in the skeleton of the tubes and atrium, suggesting that they are not regularly distributed in the cortex of the sponge. Moreover, the occurrence of triactines around the inhalant apertures and the presence of spines in the apical actine of the tetractines are here described for the first time. <i>Leucascus leptoraphis</i> is the most similar species to <i>L. lobatus</i>. Both of them present skeleton composed of triactines and tetractines with cylindrical actines, and tripods. Nevertheless, <i>L. leptoraphis</i> and <i>L. lobatus</i> can be easily differentiated mainly based on the shape of the cormus, spicule size, and abundance of tetractines (which is high in <i>L. lobatus</i> and rare in <i>L. leptoraphis</i>). The presence of tripods with a fourth rudimentary actine is also exclusive of <i>L. lobatus.</i></p> <p> <i>Distribution:</i> North Atlantic: <i>Leucascus lobatus</i> is endemic to Greenland: Julianehåb Bank (Brøndsted 1933), Kap Farvel (6007.7’N, 4417’W; 6015’N, 4417’W; 6004,5’N, 4302.7’W), Tjalfe station (6506’N, 5419’W), Godthaab station (6022’N, 4727’W), East of Greenland (7040’N, 22W), and Thule station (7634,5’N, 6924,5’W) (Rapp 2004).

The new species can be distinguished from other Scoloplax by the following unique features: ventral midline plates between the anus and caudal peduncle with two longitudinal parallel rows of odontodes not covered by skin; pectoral and pelvic fins with all rays simple, unbranched; larger specimens with odontodes in abdominal area between pelvic-fin bases and immediately anterior to genital papilla; mesethmoid with thickened triangular anterior process; and larger specimens with small odontodes on first and second pelvic-fin rays. Description. Morphometrics given in Table 1. Small size, 10.5- 17.2 mm SL. Head and body strongly depressed. Dorsal profile of head and predorsal area nearly straight except for shallow depression at posterior tip of rostral plate. Body profile straight between dorsal and caudal fins. Snout rounded in dorsal view. Head with series of odontodes forming lateral ridge from orbit to posterior pterotic-supracleithrum spine. Small bony plate located immediately lateral to lateral ethmoid and just anterior to orbit [“lateral ethmoid plate” sensu Schaefer (1990)] bearing three to five odontodes near posterior margin (Fig. 3). Rostral plate bearing 14-24 recurved odontodes. Eye dorsal and conspicuous. Mouth small, terminal. Maxillary barbel biramous, major ramus elongate, reaching base of pectoral-fin spine; minor ramus short, not reaching base of pectoral-fin spine. Mental barbel uniramous, origin anterior to gular fold and posterior to mandibular symphysis. Mandibular barbel uniramous, origin at corner of mouth. Small platelet at distal tip of rib on sixth vertebra bearing 3-16 small odontodes. Odontodes present on posterior coracoid process. Mesethmoid with a thickened triangular anterior process (Figs. 3, 4e). Four branchiostegal rays. Dorsal fin with spinelet, spine and three soft branched rays. Dorsal spine with small odontodes. Locking mechanism present. Pectoral fin with well-developed spine and four unbranched rays. Pectoral spine completely covered with small odontodes and with few small serrations along posterior margin from mid-length to distal tip; locking mechanism present. Pelvic fin with four unbranched rays; first ray thicker and with odontodes. In larger specimens the second pelvic-fin ray bears a few small odontodes.Anal fin with five to six rays. First ray unbranched, thickened and bearing odontodes, followed by three to four branched rays and with the last ray unbranched. Caudal fin with 11 rays; outer rays unbranched and bearing small odontodes. Nine principal inner rays branched near tips. Procurrent caudal-fin rays absent. Dorsolateral plates 16-17, extending posteriorly from base of last dorsal-fin ray to caudal peduncle. Ventrolateral plates 8-9. Ventral midline plates 4-6, bearing odontodes along lateral margins forming two longitudinal rows (Fig. 5). Total vertebrae 25-27 (n=10). Coloration. Body overall brownish, more pigmented laterally with wide longitudinal dark brown stripe along lower region of trunk from pectoral to caudal fin (Figs. 1-2). Mid-ventral plate series less pigmented. Dorsal part of body pale except for three narrow dark saddles. First saddle faint, at dorsal fin origin; other two saddles darker and evenly spaced between dorsal and caudal fins. Ventral portion of body pale, creamcolored, sometimes with dark pigment concentrated along lateral edges and more diffuse pigment across abdomen. Dorsal fin darkly pigmented along base and hyaline distally. Pectoral fin largely hyaline except for dark spots clustered in spear-like submarginal band. Pelvic fin largely hyaline except for faint dark submarginal band. Anal fin with two thin dark transverse bands, one near base and the other near mid-length. Base of caudal fin with dark brown spot extending anteriorly onto caudal peduncle. Remaining caudal fin hyaline except for dark pigment forming blotchy subterminal distal band. Distribution. Scoloplax baskini was found among leaf litter in small clearwater tributaries of the middle part of rioAripuanã, a right-bank tributary of the middle rio Madeira (Fig. 6). Etymology. Species name in honor of Jonathan Baskin for his significant contributions to Neotropical ichthyology including the description of the genus Scoloplax.Published as part of Rocha, Marcelo Salles, Oliveira, Renildo Ribeiro de & Rapp Py-Daniel, Lúcia H., 2008, Scoloplax baskini: a new spiny dwarf catfish from rio Aripuanã, Amazonas, Brazil (Loricarioidei: Scoloplacidae), pp. 323-328 in Neotropical Ichthyology 6 (3) on pages 324-325, DOI: 10.1590/S1679-62252008000300005, http://zenodo.org/record/541972
