Ebinania Vermiculata
''Ebinania'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the Family (biology), family Psychrolutidae, the fatheads. These fishes are found in the Southern, Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Description Ebinania is distinguished from other Psychrolutidae due to their thin, flexible orbital rim. Other features include prevomerine teeth. Species There are currently seven recognized species in this genus: * ''Ebinania australiae'' Keith L. Jackson & J. S. Nelson, 2006 Ebinania australiae was first discovered in 2006 off of the coast of southern Australia in a collection of 9 specimens. 8 of the specimens were found along the areas of Tasmania whereas the 9th sample were found near Perth, Southwest Australia. The species' appearance has a cirri on the head, durable thin and flexible orbital rims, cranial (frontal) arch 3 high and twisted upwards, prevomerine teeth in a continuous band, a single terminal chin pore, obsolete lateral line pores, and a pale color throughout the ...

Kiyomatsu Matsubara
was a Japanese people, Japanese marine biologist, ichthyologist, and herpetologist. Born Kiyomatsu Sakamoto in Hyogo Prefecture, Kiyomatsu Matsubara was the first professor of the Department of Fisheries of the University of Kyoto and is considered to be the founder of Japanese research on fish systematics. He changed his name to "Matsubara" in the early 1930s. He has focused his research primarily on the scorpionfish (Scorpaeniformes) and published many books and scholarly articles. He described several new species of fish, including the crocodile shark ''(Pseudocarcharias kamoharai)''. Species named after him include the rays ''Bathyraja matsubarai'' (Ishiyama, 1952) and ''Dasyatis matsubarai'' Yasunori Miyosi, Miyosi, 1939.

Joseph Schieser Nelson
Joseph (Joe) Schieser Nelson (April 12, 1937 – August 9, 2011) was a Canadian ichthyologist. He is best known for the book ''Fishes of the World'' (1st edition 1976, 4th edition 2006), which is the standard reference in fish systematics and evolution. Nelson obtained his PhD from University of British Columbia in 1965. He retired in 2002 from the University of Alberta where he made most of his career; he continued to hold position as a Professor Emeritus and stayed scientifically active until his final years.

Max Carl Wilhelm Weber
Max Carl Wilhelm Weber van Bosse or Max Wilhelm Carl Weber (5 December 1852 – 7 February 1937) was a German- Dutch zoologist and biogeographer. Weber studied at the University of Bonn, then at the Humboldt University in Berlin with the zoologist Eduard Carl von Martens (1831–1904). He obtained his doctorate in 1877. Weber taught at the University of Utrecht then participated in an expedition to the Barents Sea. He became Professor of Zoology, Anatomy and Physiology at the University of Amsterdam in 1883. In the same year he received naturalised Dutch citizenship. His discoveries as leader of the Siboga Expedition led him to conclude that Wallace's Line was placed too far to the west. His studies, along with others, led to a series of alternative lines to be proposed to delimit two major biogeographic realms, the Australasian realm and the Indomalayan realm. These lines were based on the fauna and flora in general, including the mammalian fauna. Later, Pelseneer p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Genus
Genus (; : genera ) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family (taxonomy), family as used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. Phylogeneti ...

David Starr Jordan
David Starr Jordan (January 19, 1851 – September 19, 1931) was the founding president of Stanford University, serving from 1891 to 1913. He was an ichthyologist during his research career. Prior to serving as president of Stanford University, he served as president of Indiana University Bloomington, Indiana University from 1885 to 1891. Jordan was also a strong supporter of eugenics, and his published views expressed a fear of "race-degeneration", asserting that cattle and human beings are "governed by the same laws of selection". He was an antimilitarist since he believed that war killed off the best members of the gene pool, and he initially opposed American involvement in World War I. Early life and education Jordan was born in Gainesville (town), New York, Gainesville, New York, and grew up on a farm in upstate New York. His parents made an unorthodox decision to educate him at a local girls' high school. His middle name, Starr, does not appear in early census records, ...
