thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
justification : this species is listed as least concern because , although it is seldom recorded , it has a relatively wide distribution , is tolerant of a broad range of habitats , has a presumed large population , occurs in a number of protected areas , and because it is unlikely to be declining at nearly the rate required to qualify for listing in a threatened category .
this species occurs in the yucatán peninsula , mexico , south to north belize and northeast guatemala ( peten department ) ( musser and carleton 2005 ) . it occurs in lowlands only ( reid 1997 ) .
this species is rare and only known from 18 specimens ( timm pers . comm . ) .
this rodent has been found in deciduous and semideciduous forest and second growth ( reid 1997 ) . this species is poorly known . it is highly arboreal . in captivity it is nocturnal , extremely shy , and prefers seeds to fruit ( reid 1997 ) . it is a difficult species to trap .
this species has been found within a few protected areas . more information is needed particularly regarding population status .
this errata assessment has been created because the map was accidentally left out of the version published previously .

tylomyines are medium to large - sized muroid rodents , ranging from 95 to 255 mm in length , with tails measuring 85 to 250 mm . their tails are usually a bit longer than their bodies . they weigh 29 to 280 grams and , in some species , males are slightly heavier than females . other species exhibit no detectable sexual dimorphism . the fur is either short or long , and is cinnamon , buff , tawny , gray , russet , or brown above and white below . the tail is either covered with long hairs and tufted at the tip , or it is nearly naked . the ears are nearly naked , and can be either short or long . there are long black whiskers , and some species have a dark ring around each eye . the eyes are quite large and the hind feet are modified for climbing . tylomyines have two pairs of mammae in the inguinal region .
tylomyines have brachydont , cuspidate molars , with the major cusps lying opposite one another . the cheek teeth bear well - developed mesolophs and mesolophids . the second upper molar has four roots , and the third lower molar is relatively large and has a crown pattern like that of the second lower molar .
tylomyines have a cuneate interorbital region , with prominant supraorbital shelves that continue posteriorly as pronounced temporal ridges . the interparietal bone is large and contacts the squamosal , to which the tegmen tympani are united . the zygomatic plates are narrow and there is usually no dorsal notch . there is an alisphenoid strut , but no subsquamosal fenestra , and the postglenoid foramen is quite small . the mesopterygoid fossa is usually completely ossified , and the parapterygoid fossa is shallow and slender . if there are sphenopalatine vacuities , they are present as tiny slits .
the first rib of tylomyines attaches to only the first thoracic vertebra . there is an entepicondylar foramen in the humerus . the calcaneum has a wide , proximally - positioned trochlear process .
the tylomyine stomach is single - chambered , and there is no gall bladder . the caecum is long and complex . the glans penis is wide and short ( though it is longer than the baculum ) , and it has large , well - spaced spines .
tylomyines live in tropical evergreen and semideciduous forests , especially those in rocky areas , at elevations from sea level to 2 , 000 meters .
these rodents are primarily herbivorous ; they consume seeds , fruits , and leaves . occasionally they eat
sympatric tylomyine species are potential competitors with each other , but they may avoid competition by foraging at different levels in the forest .
tylomyines have large eyes and probably have good vision . they can be seen twitching their ears and vibrissae back and forth when investigating new objects . they make a variety of trills , squeaks , chirps , and grunts to communicate with one another during courtship , copulation , aggressive encounters , and while raising young . young tylomyines are often very vocal , and they chirp when their nest is disturbed or when playing with littermates .
captive tylomyines have been recorded living up to five years and five months . lifespan in the wild is probably much shorter .
form monogamous pairs and share some of the responsibilities of rearing young . individuals of this species emit regular , high - pitched chirps to locate mates , and males have been seen courting females by chirping at them for a few minutes before copulation .
tylomyines reproduce year round . females are polyestrus , producing several litters per year , and experience a postpartum estrus . in some species , implantation may be delayed if a female becomes pregnant while nursing a litter . gestation periods , if implantation is not delayed , last 30 to 69 days . litter sizes average two to three , with a range of one to four . young are relatively precocial . they are born partially furred and with partially erupted incisors . their ears open in one or two days and their eyes open at 6 to 18 days . the young cling to their mothers ' nipples until they are three or four weeks old and leave the nest shortly afterwards . tylomyines reach sexual maturity at one to three months of age , with females maturing more rapidly than males .
female tylomyines construct nests where they rear their relatively precocial offspring . young cling to their mothers ' nipples for the first few weeks of life but may be left behind in their nests when their mothers go out to forage . if their nests are disturbed , mothers drag their offspring with them to safer locations . females also rush at attackers and try to bite .
males help build nests and remain near their mates and offspring for about a week after parturition .

the seaweed blenny ( parablennius marmoreus ) is a species of combtooth blenny found in coral reefs in the western atlantic ocean along the coasts of new york , bermuda , the bahamas , also in the gulf of mexico , south to southern brazil .

this species reaches a length of 8.5 centimetres ( 3.3 in ) tl .

seaweed blenny

the seaweed blenny , parablennius marmoreus , is one of several species of combtooth blennies belonging to the family blenniidae .
common names include seaweed blenny ( english ) , blénido pintado ( spanish ) , and blenio marmoreo ( spanish ) .
the yellowtail fang blenny is mimicked by the bicolor blenny , ecsenius bicolor and the bicolor fangblenny , plagiotremus laudandus .
) . the pearl blenny has a deeply notched dorsal fin with a low and straight - edged spinous section which distinguishes it from the seaweed blenny . the coloration of the pearl blenny also differs from the seaweed blenny - the body is brown with large dark brown irregular bars along with dark and white spots . dark bands are also present on the lips and cheeks . the maximum size of the pearl blenny is slightly larger than the seaweed blenny at 10cm in length . the molly miner has a row of comb - like cirri down the central portion of the head , anterior to the dorsal fin which assists in the identification of this species . however it is similar to the seaweed blenny with branched cirri above each eye . the molly miner is olive brown with darker markings and a few white spots , along with a caudal fin that is usually barred .
the seaweed blenny is distributed in the western atlantic ocean from new york ( us ) , bermuda , the bahamas , and the gulf of mexico to southern brazil .
predators there is little information available on specific predators of the seaweed blenny , however it is most likely preyed upon by larger demersal fish and crustaceans including crabs and lobsters .
while information regarding specific predators of the seaweed blenny is scarce , it is likely that this species is preyed upon by larger demersal fishes and crustaceans such as crabs and lobsters .
dentition there are 35 - 43 comb - like incisors in the jaws of the seaweed blenny . in addition , posterior canines are present in both jaws while the vomer lacks teeth .
the irl , the seaweed blenny occurs in several habitats . however , it seems to be most abundant around inlets where it is associated with rocky seawalls , jetties , buoys and pilings .
little temperature and salinity tolerance data are available for the seaweed blenny . because it ranges from temperate to tropical coastal habitats , it is likely that environmental tolerances of this species are quite large .
size , age , and growth the maximum reported size of the seaweed blenny is 3 . 3 inches ( 8 . 5 cm ) total length . currently scientific data on maximum age and growth rates is not available .
: an artificial habitat - associated blenny ( pisces : blenniidae ) . vie et milieu 49 : 221–228 .
the yellowtail fang blenny is blue anteriorly and yellow posteriorly . there is a diagonal black stripe through the eye .
information concerning the maximum age and average lifespan of p . marmoreus is lacking . growth rates vary with environmental conditions , food availability and other factors . the maximum reported size for the seaweed blenny is 8 . 5 cm ( robins & ray 1986 ) .
appearance : body elongated , resembles a small burbot . caudal fin arrowhead - shaped , forming a continuation of the long dorsal and anal fins . this distinguishes the viviparous blenny from the two other similar slim - bodied bottom - dwelling fish in the baltic , the rock gunnel and snake blenny . the viviparous blenny has a wide mouth with prominent lips .
scientific name : parablennius marmoreus ( poey , 1876 ) common name : seaweed blenny species codes for trip ticket reporting : marine life code : 533 - blenny , other license and endorsements required for commercial harvest : spl - saltwater products license rs - restricted species endorsement ml - marine life endorsement * these are unofficial designations , please see florida administrative code chapter 68b for specifics , urltoken .
the seaweed blenny uses its beak - like lower jaw to pick at organisms on the benthos and among fouling communities . common prey items and other foods include a variety of polychaetes , crustaceans , hydroids and algae ( lindquist & dillaman 1986 , longley & hildebrand 1941 , randall 1967 ) .
the yellowtail fang blenny is a distintively coloured fish that has an enormous curved , venomous fang on either side of the lower jaw .
distinctive features as with all combtooth blennies , the seaweed blenny has an elongate body with a blunt head . there are several prominent cirri on each eye which are branched . the snout of this fish is blunt ; the gill openings are continuous across the isthmus ( fleshy throat region ) . the anterior naris ( nostril ) terminates as a short tube with a triangular flap while the posterior naris is a small pore with a margin that is slightly raised . the caudal fin is broadly rounded . the lateral line of the seaweed blenny extends from the upper opercular angle to near the end of the spinous section of the dorsal fin .
we counted individuals of the family blenniidae and estimated their sizes on gas platforms southeast of dauphin island , alabama . we observed species abundance decreasing as depth increased . fish sizes also decreased with depth . the most abundant species was molly miller , scartella cristata , followed by plumed blenny , hypleurochilus multifilis , tessellated blenny , hypsoblennius invemar , and seaweed blenny , parablennius marmoreus . total blenny abundance was positively related to the barnacle , megabalanus antillensis , and dissolved oxygen concentrations , and inversely related to anthozoa . individually , s . cristata was correlated with m . antillensis , and inversely related to salinity , while the other blenny species showed more complex correlations to invertebrates . as a community , blennies showed a clear separation based on depth independent of offshore / inshore sites and sample date based on multidimensional scaling analyses . our study suggests that attached invertebrates , particularly m . antillensis , provided a predation refuge , allowing these blenny species to exist in an otherwise unsuitable habitat , i . e . open shallow waters of the northern gulf of mexico .
the yellowtail fang blenny is a solitary species that is usually seen hovering above the bottom feeding on zooplankton . it also feeds on benthic invertebrates .
food habits as an omnivore , the seaweed blenny feeds primarily on algae along with some predation on polychaetes , crustaceans and hydroids . it uses its beak - like lower jaw to pick at prey items along the benthos and fouling communities . this fish is diurnal with active feeding and other behaviors taking place during the day .
the viviparous blenny is a common catch in coastal waters , especially by ice - fishers in winter . makes good eating , although not greatly appreciated in finland .
the seaweed blenny can hide by changing their color to match the background and retreat into recesses . look for them in shallow depths on and around rocks or sea floor that has algae and other organisms covering them . they have a distinguishing pale spot in the middle of the dark gill cover . they can grow up to three inches . they could be mistaken for the
in australia the yellowtail fang blenny is known from the north - western coast of western australia , around the tropical north of the country and south to the southern coast of new south wales .

the seaweed blenny has a tan to rusty orange , green or golden body with scattered or clustered dark brown spots that form lateral broken lines . there is a bronze region located on the top of the head . a dusky stripe extends from the eye toward the caudal fin on each side of the body which is most visible above the pectoral fin , fading toward the posterior of the body . in some specimens , there is a pale to bright blue spot on the fore - dorsal fin . the edge of the anal fin is pale . it is able to pale and darken it ' s coloration as a camouflage response . the ventral surface of this blenny is whitish in color .
the seaweed blenny was originally described as blennius marmoreus by poey in 1876 ; however this name was later changed to the currently valid parablennius marmoreus ( poey 1876 ) . the family blennidae is a large group of fishes referred to as the combtooth blennies which are elongate , blunt headed fishes that often possess a long continuous dorsal fin and a fleshy crest on their heads . the genus name marmoreus is derived from latin meaning
marble
perhaps referring to the coloration of this small fish .
several species of combtooth blennies inhabit the irl and surrounding coastal waters . of these , the most closely related and morphologically similar species are the pearl blenny , entomacrodus nigricans ; and the molly miller , scartella cristata ( robins & ray 1986 ) . the dorsal fin of the pearl blenny is deeply notched , with the spinous section low and straight - edged . the body is brown with irregular large dark brown bars , blackish and pearly white spots . dark bands are also present on the lips and cheeks . the maximum size of e . nigricans is 10 cm , slightly larger than the seaweed blenny . the molly miller also reaches lengths of 10 cm , but has a row of comb - like cirri down the middle of the head anterior to the dorsal fin . like p . marmoreus , the cirrus above each eye is branched . the body is olive brown with darker markings and occasional pearly white spots , and the caudal fin is usually barred .

the seaweed blenny deposits eggs on the bottom substrate where after fertilization , the parental male guards the eggs of all of his female mates until hatching . this surface may consist of empty bivalve shells , holes and crevices in rocks , sponges , or inside discarded marine debris . data on gestation period and the embryos of this species is lacking . it is known that the larvae range in size from 5 . 8 - 16 . 0 mm in length and have an average of nine teeth . the larvae settle onto the bottom substrate at lengths of 19 . 0 - 20 . 5 mm during which time they may have up to 22 teeth .
no known obligate associations exist for p . marmoreus . however , as inhabitants of a variety of coastal ecosystems , seaweed blennies are associated with several organisms common to seagrass beds , oyster reefs , rocky intertidal zones and nearshore reefs . for extensive lists of other species found throughout the ecosystems in which p . marmoreus occurs , please refer to the ' habitats of the irl ' link at the left of this page .
this tiny fish rarely gets to be more than 3 inches long . although it has a few look - alike fish , it is easily recognized by the tufts of branched cirri above each eye . its elongated body with blunt head is ideal for life in the shallows amoung rocks , seaweed , and seafloor litter or mangrove roots . after mating , the male guards all of the eggs from his mutliple females until hatching .
this combtooth blenny has 35 - 43 comb - like incisors ( lindquist & dillaman 1986 ) in addition to upper and lower canines ( ditty et al . 2005 ) . the body of p . marmoreus is tan to rusty orange with scattered or clustered dark brown spots and a bronze area on the top of the head ( robins & ray 1986 ) . a wide dusky stripe extends from the eye toward the caudal fin on each side , most visible above the pectoral fin and usually fading on the rear of the body . the ventral surface of the head is whitish . the filamentous appendage above each eye , called the cirrus , is branched in this species . fin rays and other meristic counts are as follows : dorsal spines = 6 - 7 ; dorsal soft rays = 17 - 18 ; total anal elements = 21 - 22 ; total vertebrae = 36 ; pelvic spines and rays = 1 and 3 , respectively ; pectoral fin rays = 14 ; and upper , primary and lower caudal fin rays = 6 , 13 and 6 , respectively ( ditty et al . 2005 ) .

little information is available on the abundance of p . marmoreus . however , surveys reported up to 30 individuals throughout twenty - seven 500 m 3 transects on the artificial reefs of the flower garden banks national marine sanctuary located in the northwestern gulf of mexico ( rooker et al . 1997 ) .
like most other blennies , egg deposition and development occurs on the benthos . after fertilization is complete , all the females of a single male mate deposit eggs on a protected surface , such as : empty bivalve shells , holes in rocks , sponges , or inside discarded cans ( peters 1981 ) . the parental male then guards the clutches until hatching ( labelle & nursall 1992 ) .
information regarding the gestation period and embryology of p . marmoreus is lacking . larvae range between 5 . 8 and 16 . 0 mm in length , bearing an average of 9 teeth . once the larvae settle at a length of 19 . 0 to 20 . 5 mm , they have up to 22 teeth ( ditty et al . 2003 , 2005 ) . pectoral fin pigmentation is generally absent until just before settlement ( ditty et al . 2005 ) .
like other combtooth blennies , p . marmoreus is diurnal , actively feeding and engaging in other behaviors during the day ( robins & ray 1986 , rooker et al . 1997 ) .

justification : global assessment : parablennius marmoreus is a widely distributed species in the western atlantic from new york to brazil over shallow rocky reef habitats . it has a presumed large overall population with no known major threats , therefore , it is listed as least concern . western central atlantic regional assessment : parablennius marmoreus occurs throughout the western central atlantic over shallow rocky reef habitats . it has a presumed large overall population with no known major threats , therefore , it is listed as least concern . gulf of mexico regional assessment : this species occurs throughout the gulf of mexico over shallow rocky reef habitats . it has no known major threats , therefore , it is listed as least concern .
parablennius marmoreus is distributed in the western atlantic from cape hatteras , north carolina south to southern brazil ( santa catarina ) , including bermuda , the bahamas , and the greater and lesser antilles and throughout the caribbean and the gulf of mexico ( smith - vaniz et al . 1999 ; mceachran and fecchelm 2005 ) .
there is limited species specific population information available for parablennius marmoreus . it may be locally abundant throughout its range .
parablennius marmoreus is reef - associated where it inhabits eroded basins and limestone boulders covered by algal mats , sea fans , etc . ( böhlke and chaplin 1993 ) . this species can be found on rocks , in crevices or empty barnacles on offshore petroleum platforms in warm , tropical waters ( rangal and guimaraes 2010 , rauch 2006 ) . male p . marmoreus hold territories and defend their barnacle cavities ( rauch 2006 ) . it is sometimes found among mangrove roots and young are sometimes found in floating sargassum ( smith 1997 ) . it is omnivorous , but feeds mostly on algae ( randall 1996 ) . it is oviparous , has distinct pairing , and its eggs are demersal and adhesive ( breder and rosen 1966 ) .
there are no known major threats to parablennius marmoreus . it has been recorded in the commercial aquarium trade , however , current levels of exploitation are not considered to represent any threat to the species as a whole .
there are no species specific conservation measures in place for parablennius marmoreus , but its distribution overlaps that of some marine protected areas ( world database on protected areas 2010 ) .

taxonomic descriptions : two dorsal fins , the second a little longer than the anal fin ; no scales on the upper side of the head , the gill covers the throat and bases of the pectoral fins ; head flattened and rather pointed with a prominent lower jaw ; body of yellowish ground colour ; back yellow - brown with 5 broad cross bands ; pelvic fins fused by a membrane which also extends across the front of these fins as a skin fold , thus forming a sucking disc ; posterior border of the sucking disc well before the vent ; none of the dorsal rays sharp and spiny ; no lateral line on the sides of the body . size : maximum - 35 cm ; common - about 19 cm ( male ) and 21 cm ( female ) .
habitats type , critical habitats , limiting factors : brackish water fish inhabiting usually sand and shell grounds , in inshore waters down to a depth of 40 m . common in coastal waters of the black and azov seas and in the estuaries of the dnieper , bug , dniestr and don rivers , also in the bosphorus . increasing pollution , hypoxia ; destruction of breeding grounds ( sand covering stony substrates for eggs ) .
biology : feeds mainly on small fishes ( sand smelts , anchovies , stripped mullets , scad , gobiids ) ; spends the winter in deeper waters , in april - may migrates towards the shore for reproduction ( at 6 o c ) ; reaches sexual maturity at three years old . the largest and most tasty goby .
population trends : species rather abundant , caught with stake nets and drag seines ; in 1989 on the romanian littoral a total of 23 t , on the bulgarian littoral - 23 t , and turkey - 210 t , us - 810 t ; their stocks are endangered by periods of hypoxia following algal blooms , when hundreds of specimens are thrown onto beaches ; for instance , in august 1989 , massive quantities of dead fishes and other organisms were recorded all along the romanian littoral , 120 t in the tanatocoenose from this species .
conservation measures taken : construction of reefs in the dniester river estuary which also increased the amount of gobiids .
conservation measures proposed : mitigation of anthropogenic intercession ; building of different types of artificial reefs ; full protection in breeding seasons .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
justification : listed as least concern in view of the large extent of occurrence , large number of subpopulations , large population size , and lack of major threats . trend over the past 10 years or three generations is uncertain but likely relatively stable , or the species may be declining but not fast enough to qualify for any of the threatened categories under criterion a ( reduction in population size ) .
known from the roanoke , cape fear , peedee , and santee river drainages in north carolina and south carolina , and the chowan and roanoke river drainages in virginia ; apparently extirpated in the chowan drainage ( burkhead and jenkins 1991 ) . largely on the outer half of the piedmont province , where fairly common . apparently absent from intervening tar and neuse drainages .
this species is represented by a large number of subpopulations and locations . total adult population size is unknown but relatively large . trend over the past 10 years or three generations is uncertain but likely relatively stable or slowly declining .
small ( 3 m ) to medium - sized ( 10 - 20 m ) warm streams ( headwaters , creeks , and small rivers ) having colorless to slightly stained , clear to turbid water , no vascular plants , a sand - rubble - bedrock substrate , and a swift current with alternating pools and riffles . in mines creek , virginia , occurs in shallow small pools and in deep and shallow portions of long pools , over substrate of silt , sand , and bedrock ( burkhead and jenkins 1991 ) .
localized threats exist , but on a range - wide scale no major threats are known . localized threats include impoundment , channelization , and possibly siltation and agricultural runoff ( burkhead and jenkins 1991 ) .
currently , this species is of relatively low conservation concern and does not require significant additional protection or major management , monitoring , or research action .

the anomioidea are a superfamily of marine bivalve molluscs that include two families , the anomiidae and the placunidae , the jingle shells and saddle shells .

they are mainly sessile bivales that superficially resemble true oysters ( partially in that they cement themselves to a substrate ) .

though they are pleurothetic , however , the anomioidea attach via their right valve rather than the usual left .

their irregular shells are inequilateral , are round to oval , with a large byssal notch .

the byssus itself is usually short and plug-like .

the left valve is convex , and the hinge is considered edentulous .
