1. "Just use bugguide/fishbase"
This is very North America/Europe centric. A big chunk of the world doesn't have any kind of online database. Here in Southeast Asia, the only "repositories" of wildlife pics are photographer groups on FB and Instagram, both are bad at searchability.

Ichthyologist Fang Fang Kullander would have been 63 years old today. She travelled the globe for her taxonomical studies of freshwater fish and her work with Fishbase, but passed away at the age of 47 in 2010 from gall duct cancer.

Just realised that you can get fish taxonomies from fishbase via taxize:

taxize::classification(species_list, db='eol', data_source='Fishbase')

That's my favorite taxonomy :)

Do you think they still ship Fishbase CD-ROMs? I'd like one

A quick check before submission can save time later. Use the #FishBase #MatchNames tool to verify species names and species lists—it detects misspelled scientific names and synonyms, helping reduce avoidable issues during peer review and manuscript processing.

Watch guide 🛠️ bit.ly/MatchNamesTool.

New analysis says most dunkleosteus were probably under 4 m in length

Thread about the very strange Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum), which is often (illegally) passed off as tuna or other high-value fatty fish, & the weird & bad things that can happen to you if you eat it. it's basically the fish version of Olestra

This week we are, together with FishBase (@q-quatics.bsky.social), present at the Antarctic Marine Species Traits Workshop in Leuven.

Participants are learning how to add traits to the Register of Antarctic Marine Species

I am happy that FishBase is still (as far as I see) chatbot-free.

Fishbaseあたりはまだ変なことになってないのかなたぶん

Authors published a paper in Biorxiv, they used FishBase in the study. Including #RRIDs will make this less ambiguous.

SciScore made a table with this resource, see “Automated Services” module (download as csv, xml or #jats) #STMpublishing #RRID

Another two-for-Tuesday for #25DaysOfFishmas to help us speed through the black dragonfishes (Melanostomiinae). Our first is a monospecific genus - Flagellostomias boureei, the longbarb dragonfish. 🦑
