  1. Marine Vertebrates: Fishes (Part 1)

  2. Chordates • Common features of all chordates: • Dorsal (back) hollow nerve cord • Notochord (flexible support rod, becomes backbone in vertebrates) • Gill slits in the pharynx • Post-anal tail • Ventral heart

  3. Phylum Chordata Subphylum Urochordata (larva) Subphylum Vertebrata (embryo) Subphylum Cephalochordata (adult)

  4. Fishes • Phylum Chordata • Subphylum Vertebrata • 3 Classes: • Class Agnatha (jawless fishes) • Class Chondrichthyes (cartilaginous fishes) • Class Osteichthyes (bony fishes)

  5. Fishes

  6. Fishes • Class Agnatha (jawless fishes) • Hagfishes (slime eels, not true eels) • Lampreys (mostly freshwater) • Most primative fishes • Lack: jaws, paired fins, scales • Round mouth, teeth, feed by suction NOAA USGS

  7. Fishes • Class Agnatha (jawless fishes) • Not true vertebrates? • Notochord skeleton (no vertebrae) • Cartilage skull Hagfish Lamprey green = notochord blue = cartilage Shark http://tolweb.org/tree/ToLimages/craniata.gif

  8. Agnatha • Hagfish • Bore or burrow head first, gills farther from head • Slime glands • Sea Lampreys • Attach and suck blood from other fishes • Breed in freshwater, move to sea as adults

  9. Hagfish • Slime as defense mechanism • Tie themselves in knots to rid excess slime • “Eelskin leather” not really from eels, but from hagfish http://vivaldi.zool.gu.se/Fiskfysiologi_2001/Course_material/Introduction_fish_evolution/Images/Hagfish_slime.jpg

  10. Fishes • Class Chondrichthyes (cartilaginous fishes) • Chimaeras (ratfishes) • Sharks, rays, skates • Vertebra, skeleton of cartilage • Placoid scales (like sandpaper) • Ventral mouth under head

  11. Chimaeras • Subclass Holocephali • Called ratfishes, rabbitfishes, ghost sharks • Only one pair external gill slits • Almost no scales • Poisonous spine on first dorsal fin for defense

  12. Chimaeras • Mostly deep sea • Feed on bottom (crustaceans, molluscs) NOAA http://img.geo.de/div/image/59517/langnasenchimaere-popup.jpg http://www.elasmodiver.com/Sharkive%20images/Spotted%20ratfish%20028.jpg

  13. Sharks • Subclass Elasmobranchii • Heterocercal tail (caudal fin) • 5-7 pairs of gill slits • 2 dorsal fins, 2 pectoral fins “dermal denticles”

  14. Sharks Relative sizes of sharks

  15. Sharks • Largest species: • Whale sharks (up to 60 ft) • Basking sharks (up to 50 ft) • Filter feeders (eat plankton) Whale (Rhincodon typus) Basking (Cetorhinus maximus)
