  Japanese Journal of Ichthyology, advpub, The Ichthyological Society of Japan, 2025, [Peer-reviewed]
  Japanese, A single specimen [150.3 mm in standard length (SL)] of the paralepidid genus Stemonosudis Harry, 1951, collected off Hitachi, Ibaraki Prefecture, northern Japan, was identified as Stemonosudis miscella (Ege, 1933), based on the following combination of characters: 3 saddle-like blotches on dorsum before dorsal fin origin; 10 peritoneal pigment sections; predorsal length 66.1% SL; and preanal length 78.2% SL. Although the species has previously been considered to be recorded from Japanese waters, it was revealed here that there were no reliable records of the species from inside of Japanese Exclusive Economic Zone. The present specimen therefore represents the first confirmed Japanese record and northernmost record of the species.

  Taxa, Proceedings of the Japanese Society of Systematic Zoology, 54, 42, 48, The Japanese Society of Systematic Zoology, 28 Feb. 2023, [Peer-reviewed]
  Japanese, A specimen of Sargocentron rubrum (Forsskål, 1775) and two specimens of Scarus ovifrons Temminck and Schlegel, 1846, caught by local fishermen off the coast of Kyoto Prefecture, Japan in December 2021, represent the first and northernmost records in the Sea of Japan, respectively. Both species are likely to have been transported northwards by the Tsushima Warm Current. Because the two specimens of S. ovifrons were collected at almost the same time in adjacent areas, it is possible that they had been part of an aggregation of individuals. Because S. ovifrons contains a palytoxin-like toxin, great care should be taken to avoid its accidental sale at fish markets.

  Biology letters, 18, 2, 20210583, 20210583, Feb. 2022, [Peer-reviewed], [International Magazine]
  English, Scientific journal, Puffer and porcupine fishes (families Diodontidae and Tetraodontidae, order Tetradontiformes) are known for their extraordinary ability to triple their body size by swallowing and retaining large amounts of seawater in their accommodating stomachs. This inflation mechanism provides a defence to predation; however, it is associated with the secondary loss of the stomach's digestive function. Ingestion of alkaline seawater during inflation would make acidification inefficient (a potential driver for the loss of gastric digestion), paralleled by the loss of acid-peptic genes. We tested the hypothesis of stomach inflation as a driver for the convergent evolution of stomach loss by investigating the gastric phenotype and genotype of four distantly related stomach inflating gnathostomes: sargassum fish, swellshark, bearded goby and the pygmy leatherjacket. Strikingly, unlike in the puffer/porcupine fishes, we found no evidence for the loss of stomach function in sargassum fish, swellshark and bearded goby. Only the pygmy leatherjacket (Monochanthidae, Tetraodontiformes) lacked the gastric phenotype and genotype. In conclusion, ingestion of seawater for inflation, associated with loss of gastric acid secretion, is restricted to the Tetraodontiformes and is not a selective pressure for gastric loss in other reported gastric inflating fishes.

  Scientific journal, Three snailfish species of Careproctus (Cottoidei: Liparidae), including two new species, are described from the deep Pacific Ocean off northern Honshu Island, Japan. Careproctus cyanogladius sp. nov., collected from the depths of 2,698–3,223 m, can be distinguished from congeneric species by having the following combination of characters: vertebrae 63; dorsal-fin rays 57–58; anal-fin rays 50; principal caudal rays 7; pectoral-fin rays 29–31; pectoral fin without a notch; uppermost pectoral-fin base below a horizontal through posterior margin of maxillary; pelvic disk oval; chin pores well separated; teeth simple; pyloric caeca 6–10; body pale blue or gray when fresh. The other new species, Careproctus orri sp. nov., collected from depths of 640–808 m, can be distinguished from congeneric species by having the following combination of characters: vertebrae 58–60; dorsal-fin rays 52–53; anal-fin rays 47–49; pectoral-fin rays 34–35; pectoral fin with a distinct notch; cephalic pores 2-6-7-2, chin pores single, unpaired; gill slit extending ventrally to 5th or 6th pectoral-fin ray; teeth strongly trilobed; peritoneum dark, stomach white. In addition, one specimen of Careproctus brevipectoralis Chernova, Thiel & Eidus, 2020 was newly collected from Japan, and is redescribed here in detail with comments on intraspecific variations.
• Redescription of the serranid perchlet Chelidoperca pleurospilus (Günther, 1880).

  Zootaxa, 4830, 1, zootaxa.4830.1.6, 12 Aug. 2020, [Peer-reviewed], [International Magazine]
  English, Scientific journal, Chelidoperca pleurospilus (Günther, 1880) (Perciformes: Serranidae) is redescribed on the basis of the lectotype (designated herein) and 69 non-type specimens from the eastern Indian and western Pacific oceans, ranging from the Andaman Sea east to New Caledonia, and northwestern Australia north to Japan. Literature records of the species from the Red Sea and Madagascar are considered applicable to Chelidoperca occipitalis Kotthaus 1973. Chelidoperca pleurospilus is characterized by the following combination of characters: pectoral-fin rays 14-16 (modally 15); pored lateral-line scales 40-43 (43); scale rows in longitudinal series 42-47 (44); scale rows between lateral line and base of 6th dorsal-fin spine 4 (3 full-sized scales plus 1 half-sized); interorbital scales reaching mid-orbit level, not extending beyond anterior margin of orbit; scales on lower jaw ventral surface restricted to angular, not extending anteriorly onto dentary; posterior tip of upper caudal-fin lobe slightly elongate with rounded or pointed contour, that of lower lobe not elongate, with rounded or truncate contour; longitudinal row of ca. 5 dark, laterally elongate blotches (more-or-less continuous in small specimens <60 mm SL) along mid-body from behind head to caudal-fin base. The species is compared with its congeners, and morphological changes with growth in the former discussed in detail.

  Japanese Journal of Ichthyology, 67, 2, 203, 207, The Ichthyological Society of Japan, 2020, [Peer-reviewed]
  Japanese,

  A single large specimen [197.8 mm standard length (SL)] of the genus Chaunax Lowe, 1846 (Lophiiformes: Chaunacidae), captured during a commercial bottom trawl at a depth of 150–250 m off Cape Daio-zaki, Shima, Mie Prefecture, Japan on November 2016. Lacked markings on the body surface, thereby differing clearly from the three Japanese congeners (Chaunax fimbriatus Hilgendorf, 1879, Chaunax penicillatus McCulloch, 1915 and Chaunax abei Le Danois, 1978) known to date. Subsequently identified as Chaunax apus Lloyd, 1909, the specimen was characterized as follows: body without marking, reddish dorsally and paler ventrally (fresh condition), becoming uniformly whitish (preserved) ; tips of cirri on esca partially dark; dorsal surface of head lacking cirri; head length 39.3% SL; and 3 neuromasts in upper preopercular series, 3 in lower preopercular series, and 15 in pectoral series. The specimen represents both the northernmost and easternmost records of the species in the Pacific Ocean, in addition to being the first from Japanese waters. Intraspecific variation was noted in the count of spinules bridging the lateral-line complex (4–5 pairs in the present specimen vs. usually 3 pairs in previous reports of the species). The need for reconsideration of two of the three species groups recognized in the genus Chaunax [C. abei (including C. apus) and C. fimbriatus species groups] was discussed from the viewpoint of new morphological data obtained from the above specimen. The new standard Japanese name "Akafusen" is proposed for C. apus, in referring to its characteristic body shape and color.

  本研究では，深海底生性魚類の代表分類群の1つであるウナギ目ホラアナゴ科を対象にして，（1）形態学的・遺伝学的データに基づく多角的な分類学的再検討を行うことで日本周辺海域における分布種を正確に認識すること，（2）各種の分布特性を明らかにし，それらを海洋環境データ等と組み合わせることで，分散能力や分散制限要因を考察すること，（3）日本周辺海域で得られた知見を総合することで，世界規模での本科種多様性を再評価すること，以上の3点を目的とする．
  2021年度はまず材料標本の収集を実施した．新型コロナウィルスの影響が当初予想よりも深刻となり，今年度に計画していた野外調査や博物館での標本観察（国内・国外）がほぼ延期もしくは中止となった．一方，研究協力者等からの提供により，主にホラアナゴ属で100個体以上の新規標本を得ることができた．年度後期にそれら新規標本および既存標本を用いたDNA解析（まずはmtDNAのCOI領域）を開始し，対象となるほぼ全ての種で遺伝子配列の決定に成功した．しかし，効率的な実験のためには他のプライマーセットの選出が必要であることも明らかとなった．標本の形態観察においては，リュウキュウホラアナゴ属で既知種とは顕著に異なる形態特徴をもつ標本を認めた．それらを未記載種と判断したため，新種記載論文の発表に着手した．また形態観察の過程で，より安価なX線フィルムを用いて脊椎骨数などの内部骨格情報を取得する手法を開発した．これにより，限られた予算内で，当初の想定よりも多くの個体のデータ蓄積が可能になった．この新規手法は，本研究課題のみならず，魚類分類学分野においてきわめて有益な手法となることが期待される．
