Magnus' Prawngoby

The magnus prawn goby is found in clear water on sand bottoms of coral reefs where it lives in burrows associated with Alphaeid shrimps. The *Alpheus* shrimp is nearly blind and builds a burrow that the Magnus Prawn Goby guards. If danger appears, the goby alerts the shrimp with its tail and both retreat into the burrow.

Luminous Cardinalfish

Characteristics of the life history of the coral reef-dwelling cardinalfish Siphamia tubifer, from Okinawa, Japan, were defined. A paternal mouthbrooder, S. tubifer, is unusual in forming a bioluminescent symbiosis with Photobacterium mandapamensis. The examined S. tubifer (n = 1273) ranged in size from 9·5 to 43·5 mm standard length (LS ), and the minimum size at sexual maturity was 22 mm LS . The number of S. tubifer associated during the day among the spines of host urchins was 22·9 ± 16·1 (mean ± s.d.; Diadema setosum) and 3·6 ± 3·2 (Echinothrix calamaris). Diet consisted primarily of crustacean zooplankton. Batch fecundity (number of eggs; FB ) was related to LS by the equations: males (fertilized eggs) FB = 27·5LS - 189·46; females (eggs) FB = 31·3LS - 392·63. Individual mass (M; g) as a function of LS was described by the equation: M=9·74×10-5LS2·68. Growth, determined from otolith microstructure analysis, was described with the von Bertalanffy growth function with the following coefficients: L∞ = 40·8 mm LS , K = 0·026 day(-1) and t0 = 23·25 days. Planktonic larval duration was estimated to be 30 days. The age of the oldest examined individual was 240 days. The light organ of S. tubifer, which harbours the symbiotic population of P. mandapamensis, increased linearly in diameter as S. tubifer LS increased, and the bacterial population increased logarithmically with S. tubifer LS . These characteristics indicate that once settled, S. tubifer grows quickly, reproduces early and typically survives much less than 1 year in Okinawa. These characteristics are generally similar to other small reef fishes but they indicate that S. tubifer experiences higher mortality.Stock-photo-school-of-luminous-cardinalfish-rhabdamia-gracilis-bleeker-owase-mie-japan-1296722059.jpg

Leonberger

The **Leonberger is a gentle giant** who is unique amongst extra-large breeds. He was first bred for companionship rather than for an operational purpose. So you could say that this big pup is a professional cuddle buddy. If this is what you are looking for, a Leonberger could be your best canine choice.

That’s not to say that this dog breed is perfect for everyone. Leonbergers are a giant breed, and with that size comes the need for plenty of space. They **love to roam**, and should only be in homes that accommodate their big bodies. They also shed quite frequently. If you can get past some of these needs, they make a fantastic family companion.

So if you’re wondering whether this breed is perfect for your family, you’ve come to the right place. Here we dive deep into what this breed needs, including food requirements, grooming needs, and how to pick a good quality breeder. Let’s jump in and take a look at the Leonberger breed and **all their Lion-ish good looks**.
Longsnout Stinger

Body oblong, moderately compressed. Head relatively small. Orbit only slightly elevated. Snout length usually equal to or longer than postorbital length. Interspinous membrane from fourth rewards less than onefourth spine height. Lower pectoral fin rays free and detached from remainder of fin; no filamentous upper pectoral fin rays in adults. **Color:** body brown or grayish brown dorsally, paler ventrally. Head usually with minute black spots. Inner surface of pectoral fin without distinctive pattern, mostly solid brown, without spots. **Size:** maximum standard length 19.5 cm. **Distribution:** distributed in the Andaman Sea and the western Pacific, from the Philippines south to northern Australia. **Remarks:** occurs on sandy or mud-sand bottom less than 50 m depth. A highly venomous species.
Lychnorhiza Malayensis

This study presents the first record of Lychnorhiza malayensis Stiasny, 1920, in Malaysian waters since its first discovery in the Java Sea of Indonesia nearly a century ago. Better representation of the species was achieved by the collection of more specimens than previous studies. Thirteen specimens were collected from the midwestern and northeastern coasts of Peninsular Malaysia and their morphology was examined in detail. Morphological descriptions of L. malayensis from outside Malaysia and our collection in Malaysia were compared, reviewed and updated. All Lychnorhiza species were also compared and differences highlighted. Lychnorhiza malayensis can be distinguished from its congeners primarily by the presence of subumbrellar papillae, higher counts of the centripetal canal which tends to anastomose, and the distinctive colour patterns and markings of the umbrella. Intraspecific variations were observed among specimens in terms of different papillae and centripetal canal forms, inter-rhopaliar canals that extend beyond or terminating at the circular canal, various colour patterns and markings, the number of velar lappets and size (length and width) of oral arms that were also different from previous descriptions. The morphological redescription of this species will facilitate the identification of this bloom-forming species and contribute to the inventories of marine biological resources in Malaysia.

Manganipithecus (Manganipithecus gigas)

Common Name: Manganipithecus

Other names: Mangani Apes, Kongs, Gorilla-Men, Giant Gorilla

Scientific Name: Manganipithecus gigas

Diet: Omnivorous, diet consisted of fruits, seeds, insects, monkeys, baboons, antelopes, warthogs and horses

Found in: Africa

Family: Primate

Found in Africa during the Pliocene to the Pleistocene, the Manganipithecus is the largest ape in history, even larger than the Gigantopithecus and rivalled by the Kwyjibo. These apes were named after the fictional ape species from Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs.

Their appearance is similar to that of gorillas, but they are more primitive and four times the size, with the females being a bit smaller. Not only is it quadrupedal, but they are also bipedal too as they can walk upright like a human.

They are highly social as they live in extremely large groups called "troops" which consists of dozen males and females with offspring, led by a silverback male. In order to gain the role of leadership after the old leader is about to step down, 6 adult males will go into battle and kill until one is standing.

Unlike actual gorillas, the Manganipithecus are omnivores as they feed on fruits, seeds, termites and other insects, but they can also prey on monkeys, warthogs, antelopes, baboons and surprisingly, horses. They can even prey on other apes such as *Australopithecus*, *Paranthropus* and other Manganipithecuses, meaning they are cannibals too.

The predators of the Manganipithecus are the sabretooth cats *Megantereon*, *Dinofelis* and *Adeilosmilus*, the bear *Agriotherium*, crocodiles, snakes, hyenas and African wild dogs.

Lost Land of the Tiger

This documentary series follows a team of big cat experts and wildlife filmmakers as they travel to the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan in search of endangered tigers. Very little is known about the tiger population that lives there, and the team hopes to capture footage of the animals at record elevations using motion-sensitive camera traps. The information collected furthers the proposal of big cat biologist Alan Rabinowitz that the area be protected along with areas of lower elevation previously known to support tigers.
