Taxonomical Review of the Marine Atherinid Fishes from the Indo-Pacific

根据琉球群岛、日本、印度尼西亚、泰国和菲律宾等地的野外采集和印度太平洋地区（从非洲东海岸到夏威夷，北至日本中部，南至澳大利亚北方）的博物馆收藏，包括模式标本，对印度太平洋地区的银汉鱼科鱼类（硬骨鱼目：银汉鱼形目：银汉鱼科）进行了分类学研究。主要研究结果如下：1.通过对该属所有命名种的模式标本的分析，确定该属11个有效种，其中包括1个新种和1个未描述种.通过对下银汉鱼属所有命名种的模式标本的研究，确定下银汉鱼属有5个有效种。Bleeker's Atherina japonica与H. tsurugae，但前者的名字是Houttuyn的A的主要谐音。日本种3. Stenatherina属仅包括一个种S. panatela。4.观察到2种和3亚种属于Atherion属。Shultz描述的三个亚种的有效性仍然不确定。根据搜索者提到的结果，提供了印度-太平洋海洋银汉鱼科属和每个属的物种的图像检索表。在对该科鱼类进行分类学研究的同时，还对该科鱼类的两个新种和一个新记录种进行了分类学研究，并对该科鱼类的两个种进行了分类学评述。

The marine atherinid fishes (Osteichthyes : Ateriniformes : Atherinidae) from the Indo-Pacific were reviewed taxonomically, based on the field collections from Ryukyu Islands, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand and Philippines, and the museum collections from all over the Indo-Pacific (from the east coast of Africa to Hawaii, north to central Japan, south to northern Australia) including type materials. Results obtained are summarized as follows :1. The genus Atherinomorus includes 11 valid species with one new species and one undescribed species, by examining the type materials of all nominal species belonging to the genus.2. The genus Hypoatherina includes 5 valid species, by examining the type materials of all nominal species belonging to the genus. Bleeker's Atherina japonica is is identified as the conspecific with H. tsurugae, but the former name is the primary homonym of Houttuyn's A. japonica.3. The genus Stenatherina includes only a single species, S. panatela.4. Two species and three subspecies belonging to the genus Atherion were observed. Validity of the three subspecies described by Shultz is still uncertain.5. From the abovmentioned results, pictorial keys to the genera of Indo-Pacific marine Atherinidae and to the species of each genus were presented.6. As the results from taxonomical studies on the leiognathid and gerrid fishes accompanied with this atherinid study, two new species and one first recorded species of the former, and taxonomical review with two species of the latter were published.
