李春生先生在“Marine Sciences”1992年第4卷第3期第212-219页上发表题为“Hairtail fishes from Chinese Coastal Waters(Trichiuridae)”(《中国近海带鱼类》)一文(以下简称该文),把中国近海带鱼分成3个种并定名两个新种。本文作者对该文进行比较和分析,认为该文从基本概念到原始数据的测量、计算和资料的分析整理等方面,存在系列的错误,某些形态描述与事实不符。故此,依照该文的论据,两个新种不能成立。 |

Abstract: |
In August 1992, Mr. Li Chunsheng's paper–“Hairtail fishes from Chinese coastal waters (Trichi ridae)” was published in “Marine Sciences” (English Edition, Vol. 4, No.3, pp. 212 - 219). In this paper, Mr. Li divided Chinese Trichiurus into three species: Trichiurus minorn. sp., T. margaritasn. sp. and T. japonicus.
At the Meeting of Chinese Society of Ichthyology in October 1991, the authors of this paper reported that the hairtail fishes from Chinese coastal waters should be divided into three species according to analyses of 1400 hairtail fish samples from 10 spawning sea areas by the methods of morphology and biochemistry. In March 1992, a research note— “Studies on the genetic variation and systemati s of the hairtail fishes from the South China Sea” was published in “Marine Sciences” 1992 (2), pp. 69 - 72, in which two new species were named Trichiurus breuis Wang et You sp. nov., T. nanhaiensis Wang et Xu sp. nov., and another hairtail fish T. haumela (Forskiil) was reported. The morphology of these three hairtail fishes (such as the form of the skull, and relevant ratios were obvious and distinctly different). The results of study on the biochemical data are the same with those of the morphology. Eleven isozymes were analysed by starch-gel and polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and 24 loci were recorded. There were specificity of species in 9 loci of 4 isozymes. The genetic distances between each two species ranged from 0.2230 - 0.3822. The full paper of classification of the species of Chinese Trichiurus was published in “Acta Oceanologica Sinica” in March, 1993 (Vol. 15 No.2 pp 77 - 83).
The authors of this paper think Li's three species are similar to authors’ of this papers, and that: 1. More than one third of the data presented by Li were inaccurate or incorrect. 2. Almost all data used in Li's paper were average valus; and they were intersected from 29 to 100 percent. These data cannot adequately identify species. 3. More than two thirds of the relevant identification items were insignificant or meaningless. 4. Li considered all foreign hairtail fishes as different species, among which the two new species were not distinguished, so his two new species were not recognized. |
