Take Notes

Based on several in situ observations, the species Ptereleotris calliura (family Gobiidae) and Liopropoma rubre (family Serranidae) are added to the taxonomic fish inventory of the Veracruz Reef System, Veracruz, Mexico. While P. calliura was found on sandy substratum in a coral reef lagoon, L. rubre was detected on a reef slope. With the addition of these 2 species, the checklist of reef fishes in the Veracruz Reef System is expanded to 479 species. Given these findings, we predict that additional survey efforts (beyond visual transects) will reveal more previously unrecorded species of cryptic fishes in the Veracruz reef system.

Los peces crípticos son parte importante de la estructura y el funcionamiento de los arrecifes coralinos, sin embargo, su talla y gran capacidad para camuflarse dificulta su investigación. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue documentar nuevos registros de peces crípticos en el arrecife Lobos, Veracruz, México. Se realizaron 36 censos visuales errantes a través de buceo libre, distribuidos en tres sitios de la laguna arrecifal en julio del 2022. Se identificaron 5 especies de peces, de las cuales, Starksia occidentalis es nuevo registro para el Golfo de México, mientras que Bathygobius mystacium, Ctenogobius saepepallens Paraclinus nigripinnis y Xyrichtys splendens son nuevas adiciones para el arrecife Lobos. Estos registros actualizan el conocimiento de la ictiofauna y reflejan la necesidad de incrementar el estudio de este grupo de peces, de los cuales, poco se conoce su función ecosistémica.
