Zwergschwarzbarsch ( German )

provided by wikipedia DE

Der Zwergschwarzbarsch (Elassoma evergladei) ist ein kleiner Süßwasserfisch aus der Gattung der Zwergschwarzbarsche, der im Südosten der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika lebt.

Merkmale

Der Zwergschwarzbarsch wird maximal 3,4 Zentimeter lang. Er hat einen langgestreckten, seitlich etwas zusammengedrückten Körper. Männchen sind lehmfarben bis graugrün gefärbt. Zur Laichzeit sind sie einschließlich der Flossen samtschwarz mit zahlreichen einzelstehenden bläulich glitzernden Schuppen. Bei den Weibchen sind die Flossen meist farblos.[1]

Flossenformel: D II–IV/8–9; A III/5–7; P 13; mLR 26–30

Verbreitung

Das Verbreitungsgebiet des Zwergschwarzbarsches reicht vom Flusssystem des Cape Fear River in North Carolina bis zur Mobile Bay in Alabama, südlich bis nach Florida an den nördlichen Rand der Everglades, nach denen er seinen Artnamen evergladei erhalten hat.

Lebensraum

Der Zwergschwarzbarsch kommt in Sümpfen und kleinen langsamfließenden Gewässern vor, typischerweise über Schlamm.

Ernährung

Der Zwergschwarzbarsch ernährt sich von Würmern und kleinen Krebstieren.

Fortpflanzung

Das Weibchen legt 40–60 Eier in Wasserpflanzen ab, wenn vorhanden vorzugsweise an Hornblatt (Ceratophyllum). Das Männchen bewacht die Eier.

Haltung im Aquarium

Der Zwergschwarzbarsch ist eine friedliche revierbildende Art, für die ein Artaquarium mit dichter Bepflanzung geeignet ist. Eine Vergesellschaftung mit dem Zwergkärpfling ist möglich. Zur Zucht sollten die Tiere kalt überwintern (um 10 °C).[2] Sie bevorzugen Lebendfutter (weiße Mückenlarven, Daphnien, Artemia, Tubifex).

Elassoma evergladei

provided by wikipedia EN

Elassoma evergladei, or the Everglades pygmy sunfish, is a species of fish from the genus Elassoma (the pygmy sunfishes) that is endemic to North America.[3]

Description

A male Everglades pygmy sunfish. The photographer notes that it "turned very pale in the photo box"

The fish can grow to a maximum length of 3.4 cm (in total length), and it generally grows to 2.3 cm (TL).[2][4] Scales are present at the top of its head.[4][5] Its mouth is both small and oblique.[4][6] The fish does not have a lateral line.[4] A crescent-shaped area behind each eye may be gold or iridescent blue.[4] It has dark lips.[4] Egg count in the ovaries of females in captivity ranged from 115 to 500, increasing with the fish's size.[4]

The fish has variable color and form.[6][7] Its body is generally colored brown with darker spots.[6] The fish has several rows of dark red spots on its dorsal and anal fins.[6] "Nonbreeding" fish may have light streaks, mottling, or blotches.[4] Females of the species in general are colored brown on their backs with mottled brown and cream/white coloring underneath,[4] or they may be reddish brown.[5] The females have no markings.[5] "Breeding" males are colored black with iridescent blue spots.[4] Males have black fins with or without brown spots.[5] Male bodies may be black, brown, or dark green with blotches or spots.[5] A few indistinct dark bars may be present on the male body.[5] Males may have brassy or blue-green iridescent scales scattered across their bodies.[5]

According to one source, males are dark black and have iridescent blue flecks,[8] and females have a brown coloration.[8]

Distribution and habitat

The Everyglades pygmy sunfish can be found in the United States from the end of Cape Fear River, North Carolina to Mobile Bay, Alabama.[2][5][9] It may also be found from the south of Florida to the northern end of the Everglades.[2][4] The fish has been found more often in the natural marshes rather than the constructed marshes of central Florida.[2]

The fish lives in freshwater and demersal habitats at a pH range of 7.0 to 7.5 and a temperature range of 10 to 30 degrees Celsius.[2] They reside in swamps, sphagnum bogs, sloughs with heavy vegetation, canals, overflow pools, ponds, lakes, and streams; generally over mud, silt, sand, limestone, or detritus.[2][4][5] They exist in such areas where the current is slow and water levels fluctuate.[2] They prefer shallow areas as well as areas of vegetation.[8] The species tends to stay restricted to black water environments more than other species of the genus.[2]

The species' population density is highly dependent on environmental conditions.[4] However, the fish is considered common in most of its range and its overall population (estimated at 100,000 as of 2013) is large and stable.[1]

Behavior

The Everglades pygmy sunfish tends to live alone.[4] As an invertivore, the fish preys on worms and other crustaceans in its habitat.[2][4] Prey include cladocerans, dipteran larvae, annelids, chironomids, copepods, ostracods,[4] and newly hatched snails.[8] Where food is centrally located, males will establish territories with closer proximity to the center based on dominance.[5] In environments of evenly distributed food, males will range freely and will not establish territories.[5]

Like many other fish species, Elassoma evergladei is oviparous.[2] A female may lay 40 to 60 eggs, and a male will guard the eggs.[2] Eggs are laid in aquatic plants, especially in those from the genus Ceratophyllum.[1][2]

In captivity

In captivity, males will establish their territory in feeding areas.[4]

Human significance

The fish is sold commercially for aquariums.[1][2] One author considers it "the best-known member of the group [pygmy sunfishes] in the aquarium hobby."[5]

In 2013, the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species named the species Least Concern because of its "large extent of occurrence, large number of subpopulations, large population size, apparently stable trend, and lack of major threats."[1]

Etymology, taxonomy, and history

Elassoma refers to the Greek words elasson, for "smaller", and soma, for "body".[2][4] Evergladei means "of the Everglades",[4][6] named for the location the type specimens were captured.[4] David Starr Jordan first described the species in 1884,[2] and his original specimens measured one inch in length.[7] One 1918 publication mentioned the species' common name as the "southern pygmy sunfish".[7]

Dvärgabborre (Elassoma evergladei)[1] är en fiskart som beskrevs av Jordan 1884. Dvärgabborre ingår i släktet Elassoma och familjen Elassomatidae.[2][3] Inga underarter finns listade i Catalogue of Life.[2]

Arten blir vanligen 2,3 cm lång och vissa exemplar når en längd av 3,4 cm.[3] Hannar har under parningstiden en blåsvart färg med några ljusa fläckar. Honornas kropp är alltid brunaktig med mörkare strimmor och fläckar.[4]

Dvärgabborre har sitt ursprungliga utbredningsområde i östra Nordamerika vid havet. Den är vanligast i träskområdet Everglades och den förekommer även i några floder i samma region.[3]

Denna fisk äter vattenlevande maskar och små kräftdjur. Honor lägger 40 till 60 ägg per tillfälle.[3] Hos exemplar som hölls i akvarium kläcks äggen efter 2 eller 3 dagar.[4]
