“…The rainbow sculpin, Alcichthys elongatus , typically lives at a depth of more than 50 m but is often found in shallow waters in spring [43]. Thus, the relatively large individuals of this species may have survived after the tsunami because they were in deeper waters in March 2011.…”

Massive tsunamis induce catastrophic disturbance in marine ecosystems, yet they can provide unique opportunities to observe the process of regeneration. Here, we report the recovery of fauna after the 2011 tsunami in northeast Japan based on underwater visual censuses performed every two months over five years. Both total fish abundance and species richness increased from the first to the second year after the tsunami followed by stabilization in the following years. Short-lived fish, such as the banded goby Pterogobius elapoides, were relatively abundant in the first two years, whereas long-lived species, such as the black rockfish Sebastes cheni, increased in the latter half of the survey period. Tropical fish species were recorded only in the second and third years after the tsunami. The body size of long-lived fish increased during the survey period resulting in a gradual increase of total fish biomass. The recovery of fish assemblages was slow at one site located in the inner bay, where the impact of the tsunami was the strongest. Apart from fish, blooms of the moon jellyfish Aurelia sp. occurred only in the first two years after the tsunami, whereas the abundances of sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus and abalone Haliotis discus hannai increased after the second year. Although we lack quantitative data prior to the tsunami, we conclude that it takes approximately three years for coastal reef fish assemblages to recover from a heavy disturbance such as a tsunami and that the recovery is dependent on species-specific life span and habitat.

“…Within Cottidae, Elongated sculpin Alcichthys elongatus (Steindachner, 1881) belongs to the monospecific genus Alcichthys and is distributed in the northwestern Pacific Ocean including the Sea of Okhotsk and Japan [4][5][6]. A. elongatus is a marine, demersal, and low boreal fish that dwells on rocky reefs at depths of up to 253 m [6][7][8]. Few studies on the molecular features of A. elongatus have been published.…”

Alcichthys elongatus is the only species in the genus, and this work is the first to provide a comprehensive mitogenome analysis of this species. The A. elongatus mitogenome was 16,712 bp long, with biased A + T content (52.33%), and featured thirteen protein-coding genes (PCGs), twenty-two tRNAs, two rRNAs, and the control region (D-loop). The H strand encoded twenty-eight genes (twelve PCGs, fourteen tRNA, and two rRNA) and the control region, whereas the L strand encoded the remaining nine genes (ND6 and eight tRNA). Except for COXI, which started with GTG, all PCG sequences started with ATG and ended with TAA (ND4L, ND5, COXI, ATP8) or TAG (ND1, ND6) termination codons, with some (ND2, ND3, ND4, COXII, COXIII, ATP6, Cytb) having an incomplete termination codon. Except for tRNA-serine-1 (trnS), the majority of the tRNAs exhibited characteristic cloverleaf secondary structures. Based on 13 PCGs, phylogenetic analysis placed A. elongatus in the same clade as Icelus spatula. This genomic data will be useful for species identification, phylogenetic analysis, and population genetics.

“…It should also be taken into account that the updates continued to be published afterwards as well. For this reason, some of the data reported by the TINRO center scientists that broadened our knowledge on the species composition, sizes, distribution, and particularities of the biology of the fish inhabiting the Russian territorial waters of the Sea of Japan (Vdovin and Shvydkii, 2000;Ivankova, 2000;Panchenko 2002Panchenko , 2005Panchenko , 2009Panchenko , 2012Antonenko et al, 2003Antonenko et al, , 2010Antonenko et al, , 2011aAntonenko et al, , 2011bIvankova and Kim, 2004;Panchenko and Antonenko, 2004;Panchenko and Pushchina, 2004;Kalchugin et al, 2006;Balanov and Solomatov, 2008;Panchenko and Zuenko, 2009;Solomatov et al, 2009;Panchenko et al, 2011Balanov et al, 2012;Zemnukhov et al, 2013;Panchenko and Solomatov, 2014;Panchenko and Boiko, 2015) have not been included in the summary work. Apart from the already published data, in the TINRO center, there have been so far accumulated many materials which have not been used in any published works and which complement and broaden our knowledge on the above-mentioned subject.…”
