“…Real reproductive commensalism is known between the Careproctus species and crab like deca pod crustaceans of the family Lithodidae (Decapoda, Reptantia) (Vinogradov, 1950;Расе, 1950;Hunter, 1969;Parrish, 1972;Balbontin et al, 1979;Melville Smith and Louw, 1987;Somerton and Donaldson, 1998;Karmanova, 2006;Poltev and Mukhametov, 2009;Klitin, 2011). This mode of commensalism is called carcinophilia (Andriashev and Prirodina, 1990;Andriashev, 2003 Burke, 1912, andC.…”

A new species of the family Liparidae, fulvous snailfish Careproctus fulvus sp. n., is described from the Novaya Zemlya Depression of the Kara Sea at a depth between 190 and 414 m. The species belongs to the group of slit eyed Careproctus (longitudinally oval pupil, elongated lower lobe of the pectoral fin, and large urogenital papilla). The representatives of the species are characterized by fulvous coloration with orange spots, deep body, small teeth, and three radials in the pectoral girdle. The eggs are deposited into glass sponges Schaudinnia rosea (Rossellidae). Valvatophilia (commensalism with bivalves) and carcinophilia (reproductive commensalism with crab like decapod crustaceans of the family Lithodidae) have been registered in the fam ily Liparidae before, but spongiophilia are described for the first time. Egg deposition into glass sponges (Ros sellidae) is known also for cod icefishes (Nototheniidae) from Antarctic waters. Reproductive commensalism between the representatives of the family Liparidae in the Arctic, the species of the family Nototheniidae in the Antarctic, and glass sponges represents a new finding of bionomic bipolarity (independent appearance of similar adaptations in unrelated groups of fishes in two polar regions of the earth). Based on the ecologo etho logical classification of fish reproduction, brood hiding Careproctus species belong to ostracophils, a group of fishes deposited the eggs into live animals.

“…While observations on snailfish eggs in crabs have revealed some sex bias in the preferred host, the pattern varies between different studies. Somerton & Donaldson (1998) reported greater numbers of male crabs were infected with Careproctus eggs, but other studies have found egg infestations to be more common in female crabs (Love & Shirley, 1993;Poltev & Mukhametov, 2009). This might reflect geographic variation as those studies took place in the Bering Sea (Somerton & Donaldson, 1998), east coast of North Kurils (Poltev & Mukhametov, 2009) and south eastern Alaska (Love & Shirley, 1993).…”

Fish as parasites: an insight into evolutionary convergence in adaptations for parasitism

Fish are the most diverse group of living vertebrates on the planet with 32 000 living species. They have diversified to fill a wide variety of ecological niches. Some species have formed close ecological interactions with other aquatic species that can be best described as symbiotic or even parasitic. Some fish species have evolved different ways to exploit invertebrates, ranging from using their body as a site for depositing their eggs and larvae to actually sheltering inside the invertebrate themselves and feeding on the organs of their host. Other fish species are frequently associated with larger aquatic vertebrates, attaching to them for either phoretic or feeding purposes or both. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of some general patterns in these symbiotic or parasitic relationships, comparing them with more ‘traditional’ parasites and symbionts, and discuss the insight they can offer on both the evolutionary process that leads to parasitism, as well as the evolutionary pathways of fishes as a whole.

Therefore, such interspecifically antagonistic interactions can influence the evolution of behavioural and morphological adaptations of either or both parasites and their hosts.…”

“…Smith et al 2004;Kitamura 2007), the Japanese tubesnout (Aulichthys japonicus) conceals their eggs in tunicates (Akagawa et al 2008) and snailfishes (Liparidae) deposit eggs within the branchial chambers of crabs (e.g. Hunter 1969;Somerton and Donaldson 1998;Poltev and Mukhametov 2009;Gardner et al 2016). All of these species display some degree of host specificity, and various degrees of adaptation of reproductive traits, for the deposition of their eggs inside invertebrates (reviewed in Leung 2014); for example, the extremely long ovipositors observed in both bitterlings (Smith et al 2004;Kitamura 2007;Kitamura et al 2012) and snailfishes (Hunter 1969).…”

Host selection and ovipositor length in eight sympatric species of sculpins that deposit their eggs into tunicates or sponges

et al. 2019

Interspecific interactions between parasites and hosts can influence the evolution of behavioural and morphological adaptations of both parasites and their hosts. There is, however, little empirical evidence available regarding the evolution of reproductive traits driven by these interactions. In this paper, we investigated host selection and ovipositor length in nine sympatric marine sculpins that oviposit into tunicates or sponges. Field and genetic studies have revealed host use for eight out of nine species of sculpins investigated here: five species of Pseudoblennius, two species of Furcina and one species of Vellitor. For one species studied (V. minutus), no egg masses could be found. Ovipositor length reflects morphology of host species utilised: six sculpin species had extremely long ovipositors allowing females to attach eggs to the deep atrium of solitary tunicates, whereas the two species that attached their eggs to the small space of atrial siphon of colonial tunicates and the spongocoel of sponges had short ovipositors. Ovipositor length varied between solitary-tunicate spawners and species with longer ovipositors selected larger tunicates. Since the ancestral form is non-parasitic, the ovipositor evolved as an adaptation to utilise sponges and tunicates as hosts. Sculpins found sympatrically may show host specificity to avoid interspecific competition for spawning niches and ovipositors may have evolved depending on the species and size of host invertebrates.
