Dentex is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Sparidae , which includes the seabreams and porgies. The fishes in this genus are found in the eastern Atlantic Ocean and the eastern Indian and Western Pacific Oceans.
Taxonomy [ edit ]
Dentex was first proposed as a genus by the French zoologist Georges Cuvier in 1814, Sparus dentex was the type species by absolute tautonymy .[1] S. dentex had been described in 1758 by Carl Linnaeus in the 10th Edition of his Systema Naturae from the Mediterranean Sea .[2] The five Indo-Pacific species form a species complex called the Dentex hypselosomus species complex but have not been separated into their own genus.[3] This genus is placed in the family Sparidae within the order Spariformes by the 5th edition of Fishes of the World .[4] Some authorities classify this genus in the subfamily Denticinae,[5] but the 5th edition of Fishes of the World does not recognise subfamilies within the Sparidae.[4]
Etymology [ edit ]
Dentex means "with large teeth, and is tautonymous with Linnaeus's Sparus dentex , and is a reference to the large teeth in both jaws.[6]
Species [ edit ]
There are currently 14 recognized species in this genus:[7]
Dentex abei Iwatsuki , Akazaki & Taniguchi , 2007 (Yellowfin seabream)
Dentex angolensis Poll & Maul , 1953 (Angolan dentex)
Dentex barnardi Cadenat , 1970 (Barnard's dentex)
Dentex canariensis Steindachner , 1881 (Canary dentex)
Dentex carpenteri Iwatsuki, S. J. Newman & B. C. Russell , 2015 (Yellow snout seabream)[8]
Dentex congoensis Poll, 1954 (Congo dentex)
Dentex dentex (Linnaeus , 1758 ) (Common dentex)
Dentex fourmanoiri Akazaki & Séret , 1999 (Fourmanoir's seabream)
Dentex gibbosus (Rafinesque , 1810) (Pink dentex)
Dentex hypselosomus Bleeker , 1854 (Yellowback seabream)
Dentex macrophthalmus (Bloch , 1791) (Large-eye dentex)
Dentex maroccanus Valenciennes , 1830 (Morocco dentex)
Dentex spariformis J. D. Ogilby , 1910 (Saffronfin seabream)
The Eocene fossil species Dentex laekeniensis van Beneden , 1872 is generally placed in its own genus, Ctenodentex .[9] [10]
Characteritstics [ edit ]
Dentex seabreams are characterised within the Sparidae by the possession of a series of sharp conical teeth in each jaw, 4 in the upper jaw and 6 in the lower jaw , These teeth are enlarged and canine -like and they have no molar -like teeth. The scales between the eyes extend to near a level with the front part of the orbit. The flange on the preoperculum is completely covered in scales.[3] The largest species in the genus is the pink dentex (D. gibbosus ) with a maximum published fork length of 106 cm (42 in ) while the smallest is D. fourmanoiri which has a maximum published standard length of 21.5 cm (8.5 in ).[7]
Distribution [ edit ]
Dentex sea breams are found in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean, from Europe to Namibia, and in the Eastern Indian and Western Pacific Ocean from Japan south to Australia.[7]
