“…Based on their taxonomic work, Fraser-Brunner [8] , Abe [9,10] and Whitley [11] showed the morphological diversity of these fishes was distinct and a new name Takifugu was given to discriminate them from Sphoeroides. Abe [9] also indicated that there were 6 subgenera comprised of 18 species, all of which occurred in marine habitats near China and Japan.…”

The phylogenetic relationships within the genus Takifugu Abe, 1949 (Tetraodontiformes, Tetraodontidae) remain unresolved. Because of the use of Takifugu as model organisms, the resolution of these relationships is crucial for the interpretation of evolutionary trends in biology. Pufferfishes of this genus are comprised of a comparatively small number of species and are mainly distributed along the coastal region of the western part of the Sea of Japan and the coastline of China. Mitochondrial gene sequences were employed to test the phylogenetic hypotheses within the genus. Seventeen species of the genus were examined. Molecular phylogenetic trees were constructed using the maximum parsimony, neighbor-joining, maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods. Our hypothesis of internal relationships within the genus differs from previous hypotheses. Our results indicate that (1) the genus Takifugu is a monophyletic assemblage; (2) the genus is divided into 6 subgroups based on the molecular data; and (3) there is low genetic diversity among the species within this genus. In addition, speciation within Takifugu appears to be driven by hybridization and isolation by distribution. Our results also suggested that the taxonomy in the genus should be clarified based on both molecular and morphological data.

“…The published phylogenetic studies were based on morphological [5] , cytogenetic [6] and isozyme variations [7] . Additionally, some researchers have investigated the genus-level taxonomy for the purpose of species identification [4,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14] .…”

“…The fixation of the ethmopalatine articulation differs substantially among the four families of the Tetraodontoidei (Table 3). We therefore coded the immobilization of the ethmopalatine articulation with four different states [4(2–5)] and conclude that this fixation cannot be used to support the monophyly of the suborder as has been previously suggested (Fraser‐Brunner 1943; Santini and Tyler 2003).…”

Konstantinidis, P. and Johnson, G. David 2012. Ontogeny of the jaw apparatus and suspensorium of the Tetraodontiformes. -Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 93: 351-366.The jaw apparatus and suspensorium of adult Tetraodontiformes are well adapted to a durophagous feeding habit. Anatomical indicators are the short, stout jaws and a suspensorium in which the quadrate lies in the same vertical plane as the autopalatine. In contrast, the palatoquadrate of larval Tetraodontiformes generally resembles that of larval percomorphs -a more posteriorly positioned quadrate and a slender and long Meckelian cartilage. Among Tetraodontiformes, the Triacanthodidae retain a protrusible upper jaw and a versatile suspensorium. The jaws of the Balistoidei have greater mobility achieved by a reduced autopalatine that has lost its bony contact with the suspensorium. In contrast to the Balistoidei, the beak-like jaws of the Tetraodontoidei lack individual teeth in the biting part of the jaws. The autopalatine is enlarged, which results in immobilization of the ethmopalatine articulation. The Ostraciidae are exceptional in having the distal part of the autopalatine reduced, while the proximal part remains attached to the suspensorium.
