Fish established outside their native range often express various changes in external morphology, which may result in significant variation between individuals inhabiting different regions. In the current study we aim to explore differences in morphology among several populations of the round goby (Neogobius melanostomus), an invasive fish in Europe and North America. A total of 753 round gobies were collected from several invasive and native populations, including marine, brackish, freshwater, lake and river ecosystems belonging to the Black Sea, Baltic Sea and Great Lakes watersheds. We analysed 35 metric and meristic characters using ANOVA, discriminant analysis and allometric coefficients. Our results indicate significant differences between most of the populations in characters such as inter orbital distance, eye diameter, head width, second dorsal fin length and depth. River dwelling round gobies had elongated ventral fins compared to those from standing water bodies—a possible adaptation for upstream dispersal in flowing habitats. Most of the morphologic characters expressed positive allometry with significant differences in allometric coefficients between populations. Probably due to their recent invasive history, some of the head characters and allometric models grouped together round gobies from the Great Lakes watershed with those from a newly established population in the Danube tributaries. Similarities between geographically distant round goby populations might reflect common adaptations in external morphology during the course of invasion.

圆形虾虎鱼 Neogobius melanostomus (Actinopterygii: Gobiidae) 的本地和入侵种群之间外部形态的变化

在其原生范围之外建立的鱼类经常表现出外部形态的各种变化,这可能导致居住在不同地区的个体之间存在显着差异。在目前的研究中,我们的目标是探索圆形虾虎鱼 (Neogobius melanostomus) 几种种群的形态差异,这是一种欧洲和北美的入侵鱼类。从几个入侵和本地种群中收集了总共 753 条圆形虾虎鱼,包括属于黑海、波罗的海和五大湖流域的海洋、咸水、淡水、湖泊和河流生态系统。我们使用方差分析、判别分析和异速生长系数分析了 35 个度量和分生特征。我们的结果表明,大多数人群在眼眶间距、眼睛直径、头部宽度等特征方面存在显着差异。第二背鳍长度和深度。与死水体的腹鳍相比,居住在河流中的圆形虾虎鱼具有细长的腹鳍——这可能是为了适应上游流动栖息地的扩散。大多数形态特征表现为正异速生长,种群间异速生长系数存在显着差异。可能是由于它们最近的入侵历史,一些头部特征和异速生长模型将来自五大湖流域的圆形虾虎鱼与来自多瑙河支流中新建立的种群的虾虎鱼组合在一起。地理上遥远的圆虾虎鱼种群之间的相似性可能反映了入侵过程中外部形态的共同适应。与死水体的腹鳍相比,居住在河流中的圆形虾虎鱼具有细长的腹鳍——这可能是为了适应上游流动栖息地的扩散。大多数形态特征表现为正异速生长,种群间异速生长系数存在显着差异。可能是由于它们最近的入侵历史,一些头部特征和异速生长模型将来自五大湖流域的圆形虾虎鱼与来自多瑙河支流中新建立的种群的虾虎鱼组合在一起。地理上遥远的圆虾虎鱼种群之间的相似性可能反映了入侵过程中外部形态的共同适应。与死水体的腹鳍相比,居住在河流中的圆形虾虎鱼具有细长的腹鳍——这可能是为了适应上游流动栖息地的扩散。大多数形态特征表现为正异速生长,种群间异速生长系数存在显着差异。可能是由于它们最近的入侵历史,一些头部特征和异速生长模型将来自五大湖流域的圆形虾虎鱼与来自多瑙河支流中新建立的种群的虾虎鱼组合在一起。地理上遥远的圆虾虎鱼种群之间的相似性可能反映了入侵过程中外部形态的共同适应。大多数形态特征表现为正异速生长,种群间异速生长系数存在显着差异。可能是由于它们最近的入侵历史,一些头部特征和异速生长模型将来自五大湖流域的圆形虾虎鱼与来自多瑙河支流中新建立的种群的虾虎鱼组合在一起。地理上遥远的圆虾虎鱼种群之间的相似性可能反映了入侵过程中外部形态的共同适应。大多数形态特征表现为正异速生长,种群间异速生长系数存在显着差异。可能是由于它们最近的入侵历史,一些头部特征和异速生长模型将来自五大湖流域的圆形虾虎鱼与来自多瑙河支流中新建立的种群的虾虎鱼组合在一起。地理上遥远的圆虾虎鱼种群之间的相似性可能反映了入侵过程中外部形态的共同适应。
