“…Recent taxonomic studies have discovered several new channid species and found unique morphological characters that are common among some species (e.g., Musikasinthorn, 1998Musikasinthorn, , 2000Musikasinthorn and Taki, 2001;Zhang et al, 2002). However, to the best of our knowledge, phylogenetic relationships among the channid species have been rarely studied, whether morphologically or molecularly.…”

Mitochondrial DNA sequences of approximately 1.5 kbp including the NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2) gene and its flanking gene regions were determined for 20 species from the freshwater fish family Channidae and 3 species from Nandidae, Badidae, and Osphronemidae. Channa orientalis and C. gachua had an approximately 170-bp insertion between the tRNA Met and ND2 genes, where a 5′-half of the insertion was similar to the 5′-end portion of the ND2 gene and a 3′-half was homologous to the tRNA Met gene. This insertion may thus have originated from a tandem gene duplication that occurred in a common ancestor of these two sister species. Molecular phylogenetic analyses from different tree-building methods consistently suggested the mutual monophyly of the African and Asian taxa and the existence of several clades within the Asian taxa, some of which correspond to distinct morphological features. Our molecular phylogeny clearly supported multiple independent losses of pelvic fins on Asian lineages in parallel. Divergence time estimation based on some reasonable assumptions without assuming the molecular clock suggested the early Cretaceous divergence of the African and Asian channids. The results thus support an ancient vicariant divergence of the African and Asian channids, rather than the more recent dispersal between African and Eurasian continents.

A new species of channid fish, genus Channa, is described from 7 specimens collected from the vicinity of Hepu, Guangxi Province, southern China. The new species, Channa nox, is distinguished from all other channid species by the following combination of characters: absence of pelvic fins, small rounded head (22.1%-26.8% SL), narrow interorbital width (19.6%-26.7% HL), short snout length (3.6%-5.1% SL), predorsal and prepectoral lengths (26.9%-28.4% SL and 24.8%-28.3% SL, respectively), 47-51 dorsal fin rays, 31-33 anal fin rays, 55-63 lateral line scales, 5.5-6.5 scales above lateral line, 9-13 cheek scales, 53-55 total vertebrae, 1 or 2 scale(s) on each side of lower jaw undersurface, the black upper half of body with 8-11 irregular (often anteriorly pointed V-shaped) bands or blotches, a large white-rimmed black ocellus on caudal peduncle and sparse white spots on the dark brown body and dorsal and caudal fins, as well as the shape of the hyomandibular process of the suprabranchial organs. Channa nox is sympatrically distributed with its morphologically most similar congener, C. asiatica.
