Dussumieria Elopsoides
The slender rainbow sardine (''Dussumieria elopsoides'') is a small, subtropical, salt water fish of the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea which was first described by Pieter Bleeker, Bleeker in 1849. ''Dussumieria hasselti'' and ''Dussumieria productissima'' are synonyms for this same fish. It is a round herring of the family Clupeidae. Until the 1980s in the eastern Mediterranean Sea, Mediterranean slender rainbow sardines were frequently confused with the rainbow sardine (''Dussumieria acuta''). Wangratana (1980) demonstrated the differences between ''Dussumieria acuta'' and ''Dussumieria elopsoides'', while Whitehead (1985) and Randall (1996) showed that ''Dussumieria elopsoides'' does occur in the Mediterranean. Morphology * Size: 8 cm. to 18 cm. * Color: silvery on the sides darkening to bluish grey on the back, and lightening to almost white on the underside. * Shape: The slender rainbow sardine has an elongated body, with round belly and a pointed nose.

Dussumieria Acuta
The rainbow sardine (''Dussumieria acuta''), also known as common sprat, dwarf round herring, rainbow herring, and sharpnosed sprat, is a bony fish important to aquaculture and commercial fisheries. Description The color of the rainbow sardine is iridescent blue with a bit of shiny gold or brass line below, which quickly fades after death; the hind margin of the tail is broadly dark. The fish has a w-shaped pelvic scute; an isthmus tapering evenly forward; and more anal fin rays. There are 14 to 18 anal soft rays. The maximum length recorded is 22 cm. Distribution and habitat Marine and estuarine species, the rainbow sardine can be found in Indo-Pacific regions such as the Persian Gulf (and perhaps south to Somalia), Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka and Malaysia to Indonesia (Kalimantan) and the Philippines. The species now also occurs in the Mediterranean, having invaded as a Lessepsian migrant through the Suez Canal. See also * Sardine * Slender rainbow sardine '' ...

Pabdeh Formation
The Pabdeh Formation is a Eocene, Late Eocene to Rupelian, Early Oligocene-aged geological formation in Iran. It outcrops along the Zagros Mountains. It was deposited in a deepwater environment in the upper Bathypelagic zone, bathyal zone of the Paratethys, Paratethys Sea, with these abyssal sediments being lifted high above sea level from the Tectonic uplift, uplift of the Zagros fold and thrust belt as part of the Alpine orogeny, Alpide orogeny. A high number of fossil fishes are known from this formation, the majority of which appear to have pelagic and deepwater affinities. These are mostly known from two localities near Elam and Istehbanat. The age of these localities have been disputed, and have previously been considered to be Early Oligocene, but are now generally thought to be middle to late Eocene in age, most likely Priabonian. Some fossils of migratory insects (a locust and ant alates), as well as fish and birds, are also known from presumed early Oligocene-aged strata ne ...

Dussumieriidae
Dussumieriidae is a family of clupeiform fishes popularly called the "round herrings". It is now recognized by FishBase as a family in its own right; it had been considered to be a subfamily of Clupeidae. It contains two extant genera, and some potential fossil genera. Possibly the earliest record of the group is '' Nardoclupea'' from the Campanian of Italy. The following genera are known: * ''Dussumieria'' Valenciennes Valenciennes (, also , , ; ; or ; ) is a communes of France, commune in the Nord (French department), Nord Departments of France, department, Hauts-de-France, France.
