Cryptarius Kailola, 2004 View in CoL View at ENA

( Figs 1–3 View Figure 1 View Figure 2 View Figure 3 , 24C View Figure 24 , 29 View Figure 29 )

Type species: Arius truncatus Valenciennes, 1840 .

Diagnosis

Mesethmoid medial notch large and shallow (1, 1> 0); mesethmoid median portion very wide (2, 0> 2); epioccipital contacting small narrow area of diagonal crest associated with neural spine of fourth vertebra (44, 1> 0); epioccipital posterior process and medial crest associated with neural spine of fourth vertebra connected (45, 0> 1); vomer arrow shaped (49, 1> 3); vomer anterior margin weakly pronounced and serrated (50, 1> 0); contact face for articulation of transcapular process with basioccipital large and depressed (85, 0> 1); transcapular process at right angle to body axis (86, 0> 1); articulation between metapterygoid and quadrate by interdigitated suture in small portion of contact and by overlapping in remaining contact area (136, 0> 1); metapterygoid anterior process rounded (138, 0> 2); anterior portion of anterior ceratohyal compressed (150, 0> 1); posterolateral processes of urohyal long (160, 0> 1); posterolateral processes of urohyal almost as long as distal portion of bone (162, 2> 0); posterior portion of second basibranchial long and wide (167, 2> 0); first pharyngobranchial large and depressed (190, 0> 1); median crest associated with neural spine of fourth vertebra very high (202, 0> 1); gas bladder lateral diverticula present (243, 0> 1); lateral line not bifurcated, reaching dorsal caudal-fin lobe (247, 2> 1).

Ambiguous optimization: Interopercle anterior portion thin and acute (133, 0> 2); transverse crest associated with neural spine of fourth vertebra very high (200, 0> 1); adipose-fin base very short (222, 2> 3).

Included species

Cryptarius daugueti Chevey, 1932 * sedis mutabilis Cryptarius truncatus Valenciennes, 1840 .

Habitat and distribution: Brackish waters, South and Southeast Asia ( Fig. 24 View Figure 24 ).

Remarks

Cryptarius View in CoL was established by Kailola (2004), and has been recognized as valid by both morphological ( Marceniuk and Menezes 2007, Marceniuk et al. 2012) and molecular studies (Betancur-R. 2009), but without consensus on its relationships.
