“…Adults of the two species can be distinguished by the counts of dorsal-and anal-fin rays and vertebrae (Table 3), and by the posterior extent of the upper jaw (Post 1986;Trunov et al 2006). In this study, myomere counts of larval specimens were 39-40, agreeing with the range found in the number of vertebrae in adult C. macropus (vs. 35-37 in P. maderensis).…”

“…Their identification was based on the fact that the only species of Caristiidae found in the South Atlantic is C. groenlandicus. However, Trunov et al (2006) reported that Paracaristius maderensis and Paracaristius heemstrai also occur in the area. These three species, including C. groenlandicus, can be distinguished from a combination of the fin-ray count, number of vertebrae, dentition of both jaws and vomer, and position of the posterior end of upper jaw (Scott et al 1970;Brickle and Laptikhovsky 2002;Trunov and Kukuev 2004;Trunov et al 2006).…”

“…Although Fujii (1984) reported an unidentified species collected from Ogasawara, southern Japan, the species is identified as P. maderensis (Trunov et al 2006). Adults of the two species can be distinguished by the counts of dorsal-and anal-fin rays and vertebrae (Table 3), and by the posterior extent of the upper jaw (Post 1986;Trunov et al 2006).…”

“…These characteristics allowed the larvae to be identified as caristiids (Belyanina 1982;Olivar and Fortuño 1991;Moser 1996;Fahay 2007). The family Caristiidae, as currently recognized, includes two species known from the North Pacific (Balanov and Il'inskii 1992;Ivanov 1997;Shinohara and Matsuura 1997;Trunov et al 2006): C. macropus and Paracaristius maderensis.…”

“…Subsequently, Matarese et al (1989) tentatively identified Johnson's (1984) larva as Caristius macropus; however, Moser (1996) concluded that the larva is Caristius maderensis. In the recent taxonomic revision of the family, the species maderensis was moved to another genus established by Trunov et al (2006): Paracaristius. The larvae of C. macropus are similar to those of Paracaristius maderensis in pigmentation (see Moser 1996).…”

Larval development of bigmouth manefish Caristius macropus (Perciformes: Caristiidae) from the western North Pacific

Larvae of bigmouth manefish Caristius macropus are described and illustrated on the basis of seven specimens (4.2-10.5 mm in body length) from the Kuroshio waters (0-60 m depth) and the transition waters (surface) between the Kuroshio and Oyashio fronts of the western North Pacific. The present larvae of C. macropus are distinguished from those of Paracaristius maderensis that inhabit the North Pacific by having 39-40 myomeres, 34 dorsal-fin rays, and 22 anal-fin rays. The present study, along with previous studies of the early life stages of caristiids, shows that larvae of the family may be defined by the following characters: body elongate in preflexion stage but becoming deep bodied and hatchet shaped after notochord flexion; anus located near vertical through base of pectoral fin; head large, without spination or serration; a distinct vertical band on the posterior tail throughout the larval stages, and two bands gradually appearing on the tail and trunk during the flexion and postflexion stages; and melanophores present around the notochord tip by the flexion stage. Adult C. macropus are found in the subarctic and temperate waters of the North Pacific; however, the present study and other occurrences of early life stages of the species probably indicate that C. macropus may spawn over a wide area in the North Pacific.

Manefish are not very common and there are few observations of associations with other organisms. An adult of the manefish Paracaristius maderensis and a juvenile of Paracaristius sp. are reported for the first time for the Pacific coast of Central America. The adult specimen (215 mm standard length) was captured off Panama, at a depth of 1000 m. The juvenile specimen (17.5 mm standard length) was recorded on video, in association with the siphonophore Praya reticulata at Isla del Coco National Park, Costa Rica, at a depth of 100 m. A brief description of specimens supporting this record as well as comparative morphometric data and distributional information are provided. The fish -siphonophore association is illustrated.
