the tabulate corals , forming the order tabulata , are an extinct form of coral .

they are almost always colonial , forming colonies of individual hexagonal cells known as corallites defined by a skeleton of calcite , similar in appearance to a honeycomb .

adjacent cells are joined by small pores .

their distinguishing feature is their well-developed horizontal internal partitions ( tabulae ) within each cell , but reduced or absent vertical internal partitions ( septae ) .

they are usually smaller than rugose corals , but vary considerably in shape , from flat to conical to spherical .

around 300 species have been described .

among the most common tabulate corals in the fossil record are aulopora , favosites , halysites , heliolites , pleurodictyum , sarcinula and syringopora .

tabulate corals with massive skeletons often contain endobiotic symbionts , such as cornulitids and chaetosalpinx .

like rugose corals , they lived entirely during the paleozoic , being found from the ordovician to the permian .

with stromatoporoidea and rugose corals , the tabulate corals are characteristic of the shallow waters of the silurian and devonian .

sea levels rose in the devonian , and tabulate corals became much less common .

they finally became extinct in the permian – triassic extinction event .

animals found as fossils in ordovician to jurassic marine rocks ( 488 million to 146 million years old ) . tabulata is characterized by the presence of interior platforms , or tabulae , and by a general lack of vertical walls , or septa . colonial masses of these tabulate corals sometimes

taxonomic classification : corals belong to the kingdom animalia , phylum cnidaria , class anthozoa , subclass zoantharia . the subclass is divided into six orders , two of which - - the rugosa and tabulata - - are common kansas fossils . most living and post - paleozoic fossil corals belong to a third order , the scleractinia , the earliest fossils of which are from the triassic period , 14 million years after the end - permian mass extinction .

tabulates , subclass or order tabulata , are extinct corals of anthozoans . tabulates , unlike rugosans , were always colonial organisms . they have simple calcareous skeleton , colonies consisting of prismatic or tube - like corallites communicating by mural pores or pore channels or tunnels . polyps lived inside corallites as chambers with base - like tabulae below and septal spines or laminar septa on sides protruding from the corallite wall . tabulate corals are taxonomically complicated because of their simplicity . favositids are characterized by closely packed corallites with mural - pores and their morphology is so variable that it differs even within a colony . heliolitids are more complicated because of their coenenchymal tissue between corallites , which consists of tiny tubes - tubuli or wavy dissepiments . halysitids are similar with having often coenenchyme , but their corallites are enclosed into ranks of various shape and size . syringoporids form fasciculate colonies consisting of tubes having little space around and being connected by pore tunnels . auloporids are reptant forms encrusting other organisms , as a small horny network .

tabulate corals occurred in the ordovician period of america and siberia , much earlier than in baltoscandia . the first appearances of tabulates lyopora , eoflecheria , saffordophyllum and protaraea in baltica are known from the level of the oandu stage . estonia is rich in ordovician and silurian tabulates , which are easy to find in localities of hiiumaa , vormsi and saaremaa . quarries in mainland are nice places to observe tabulates in their living position .

tabulates are large , but their finer taxonomy is observed only from peels and thin - sections . normally pair of thin - sections is made from transverse and vertical directions of colony growth . peel is an acetate replica from the polished and etched surface of the colony cut . thin - sections are thin pieces of colonies , clued to glass and grinded down until 50 microns . their scanned and photographed images are investigated later by using different software .

tabulates are sessile organisms which preferred only shallow seas and are not mush useful in stratigraphy . they were spread on ancient oceans sporadically or formed bioherms or biostromes . together with strtomatoporoids , rugosans and other fossils in the same community , they are informative in palaeoecology . sedimentological processes are readable also from the shape and growth details of such organisms .

like the rugose corals , the tabulate corals are entirely palaeozoic and are similar in range . they occur as colonial forms only , and usuallly have small corallites . there are generally no septae , or they are very small ; the construction is simpler than in other coral orders .

description : corals are simple animals that secrete skeletons made of calcium carbonate . they are close relatives of sea anemones and jellyfish and are the main reef builders in modern oceans . corals can be either colonial or solitary .

as fossils , corals are found worldwide in sedimentary rocks . based on these fossils , we know that the corals began their long evolutionary history in the middle cambrian , over 510 million years ago . in kansas , they are fairly common in pennsylvanian and permian rocks , deposited from about 315 to 250 million years ago .

corals are simple animals , characterized by their radial symmetry and lack of well - developed organs . the polyp , the soft part of the coral , is essentially a small digestive sack made up of an inner and outer wall , separated by a gelatinous layer ( see diagram ) . the mouth , surrounded by stinging tentacles , forms an opening through which food enters and waste products are expelled . the hard external skeleton is secreted by the polyp ' s outer wall . these calcium carbonate structures are the part of the animal most likely to be preserved as a fossil .

a , generalized drawing of a coral polyp ; b , cross section of simple polyp .

shows the structure of the hard parts that protected the individual polyps and formed the framework of the colony . the drawing shows the pores on the surface , from which the polyps extended their tentacles to feed ; the photographed specimen is from the

douglas county ( drawing by al kamb , ku natural history museum , invertebrate paleontology ) .

corals live attached to the seafloor and feed by trapping small animals with their tentacles . they reproduce both sexually and asexually . budding , a kind of asexual reproduction , occurs when the parent polyp splits off new polyps . evidence of budding can be seen in fossil corals .

modern corals inhabit deep - water environments as well as shallow reefs . based on evidence from the rocks , scientists have determined that the pennsylvanian and permian corals of kansas lived in warm , shallow , sunlit waters where the bottom was firm enough to offer a secure point of attachment .

although corals are the main reef builders in modern oceans , not all corals build reefs . in addition to the corals , which are called framework organisms , other organisms contribute to the formation of reefs . for example , modern reefs are inhabited by binding organisms ( such as encrusting algae ) and filler organisms ( such as snails , bivalves , and sponges ) , whose skeletons fill in the spaces in the reef after death .

two groups of corals were important inhabitants of the pennsylvanian and permian seas - - tabulate and rugose corals . tabulate corals were exclusively colonial and produced calcium carbonate skeletons in a variety of shapes : moundlike , sheetlike , chainlike , or branching . tabulate corals get their name from horizontal internal partitions known as tabulae . some tabulate corals were probably reef builders ( but not in kansas ) .

a common characteristic of rugose corals , from which they get their name , is the wrinkled appearance of their outer surface . ( rugose comes from the latin word for wrinkled . ) rugose corals may be either solitary or colonial . because solitary rugose corals are commonly shaped like a horn , these fossils are sometimes called horn corals .

both tabulate and rugose corals died out in the major extinction that occurred at the end of the permian period , roughly 250 million years ago . this extinction marked the end of the paleozoic era . the corals that inhabited the post - paleozoic seas differ significantly from the earlier corals . because of this , many specialists argue that these later corals may not be closely related to the paleozoic corals .

tabulate and rugose corals are common in eastern kansas . rugose corals are especially common in the beil limestone member of the lecompton limestone in the vicinity of sedan , kansas .

the shovelnose sea catfish ( arius subrostratus ) , also called the short-nosed catfish or the marine catfish , is a species of sea catfish in the family ariidae .

it was described by achille valenciennes in 1840 .

it is a non-migratory species which inhabits tropical marine and brackish waters in the indo-western pacific region , including indonesia , india , pakistan , the philippines and thailand .

it dwells at a depth range of 0 to 20 m ( 0 to 66 ft ) .

it reaches a maximum ng length of 39.5 cm ( 15.6 in ) , while commonly reaching a total length of 12 cm ( 4.7 in ) .

the diet of the shovelnose sea catfish includes detritus , polychaete worms , diatoms , algal weeds , and various crustaceans .

it has been recorded spawning between the months of january-april and september-october in india .

males incubate the eggs in their mouths .

the shovelnose sea catfish is of commercial value to fisheries ; it is mostly marketed fresh .

shovelnose sea catfish

shovelnose sea catfish <EOT> the etiology of s . algae infections to freshwater fish ( tiger shovelnose catfish ) is unknown . 2 according to literature , s . algae could cause an infection to both marine animals 3 and freshwater fish . based on the gross findings and histopathology , this tiger shovelnose catfish was diagnosed with fibrinous serositis caused by s . algae infection .

the shovelnose catfish can be recognised by its forked tail , wide mouth and truncate snout . it usually has a smaller eye than the similar looking silver cobbler , ariopsis midgleyi * .

use the table to access images and fact sheets of the ariid fishes on the site . these include the forktail catfishes , salmon - catfishes and sea catfishes .

these fish are not aggressive . people stung by catfish are usually fishing or bathing when they make contact with a catfish , usually by stepping on it or handling the fish after it has been caught .

opt for yellow snapper or domestic catfish to get the same texture as orange roughy in your recipes .

stick with domestic , farm - raised catfish . it ' s responsibly farmed and plentiful , making it one of the best fish you can eat . or , try asian carp , an invasive species with a similar taste to catfish that ' s out - competing wild catfish and endangering the great lakes ecosystem .

both salt - and fresh - water catfish are dangerous . each has three spines and a stinging apparatus .

shewanella algae is a gram - negative , rod - shaped , motile bacillus with a single polar flagellum . s . algae is found in warm marine environments throughout the world , and is isolated from seawater . 1 the tiger shovelnose catfish ( pseudoplatystoma tigrinum ) is the member of the genus pseudoplatystoma and the family pimelodidae which belongs to the class actinopterygii . pseudoplatystoma species are all large , boldly striped or spotted catfishes , they are familiar due to their distinctively marked color patterns . 2 here we described the histopathologic lesions of fibrinous peritonitis caused by s . algae in tiger shovelnose catfish .

mild - tasting wild - caught asian or atlantic sea bass is a good , seafood - watch recommended alternative to red snapper , or look for the farm - raised version , marketed as barramundi .

catfish are often found in muddy rivers , lakes , and on beaches in tropical , subtropical , and temperate waters .

catfish are a distinctive type of fish that have whiskers protruding from the area around the mouth . they also have external spines near their fins .

“these guys have to stay on the list , ” says cufone . “if there’s nothing else to pay attention to , know this : imported fish are almost never inspected for filth . ” nearly 90 percent of the catfish imported to the u . s . comes from vietnam , where use of antibiotics that are banned in the u . s . is widespread . ( antibiotic use is also a problem with imported shrimp ) . furthermore , the two varieties of vietnamese catfish sold in the u . s . , swai and basa , aren ' t technically considered catfish by the federal government and therefore aren ' t held to the same inspection rules that other imported catfish are .

a male , tiger shovelnose catfish raised in hanwha aqua planet jeju was submitted to the pathology department of veterinary medicine , jeju national university . necropsy was performed and visceral organs were fixed with 10 % neutral buffered formalin and prepared into paraffin sections and stained with hematoxylin & eosin for light microscopy . fibrinous materials of visceral surface were aseptically collected for bacterial culture , and were inoculated on sheep blood agar and anaerobically incubated for 48 h at 37°c . isolated bacteria were confirmed using vitek 2 system .

pain associated with a catfish sting may be relieved with one to two acetaminophen ( tylenol ) every four hours and / or one to two ibuprofen ( motrin , advil ) every six to eight hours .

chilean sea bass , the commercial name for patagonian toothfish , was nearly fished to commercial extinction , are still considered a fish to avoid . fish stocks are in such bad shape that the nonprofit greenpeace estimates that , unless people stop eating this fish , the entire species could be commercially extinct within five years . food and water watch ' s guide notes that these fish are high in mercury , as well .

problems associated with our eating too many sharks happen at all stages of the food chain , says cufone . for one , these predatory fish are extremely high in mercury , which poses threats to humans . but ocean ecosystems suffer , too . " with fewer sharks around , the species they eat , like cownose rays and jellyfish , have increased in numbers , " cufone says . " and the rays are eating—and depleting—scallops and other fish . " there are fewer of those fish in the oceans for us to eat , placing an economic strain on coastal communities that depend on those fisheries . shark have long lives , they mature late , and they only have one pup at a time . sometimes they are cut up and sold as sea scallops , says cufone . plus , “if you see sea scallops that are a uniform size and shape , you may be looking at shark . ” shark - finning is illegal in the u . s . , but its practice in other areas is causing devastation in shark - populations worldwide .

oral antibiotics are usually recommended for catfish stings that become infected . antibiotics should be taken if infection develops for at least five days after all signs of infection have resolved . potential drug allergies should be checked prior to starting any antibiotic . a doctor can recommend the appropriate antibiotic . some antibiotics can cause sensitivity to the sun , so a sunscreen ( at least spf 15 ) is also recommended for use with such antibiotics .

grossly , the catfish had severe damage on the fin and tail . a turbid , sticky , dark - red fluid was found in the abdominal cavity . histopathologically , diffuse fibrinous peritonitis in the serosa of the spleen and kidney was observed . diffuse , fibrinous epicarditis was presented in the heart . large amount of the intra - lesional bacterial colonies were adhere on the serosa of the spleen , kidney , and pericardium of the heart . in bacterial examination , gram - negative rod shaped bacterial colonies were successfully isolated from blood agar plate . the isolated bacteria were mucoid colonies with β hemolysis on blood agar . these bacteria were confirmed as s . algae by the vitek 2 system .

this dirty dozen list is made up of the least sustainable , or even toxic , species .

it was not long ago that americans rarely thought about where their food came from , let alone the impacts of their choices . these days it’s increasingly important to know not only what you’re eating and where it’s come from . from food co - ops , farmers markets , and community supported agriculture ( csa ) , to whole aisles ( and grocery stores ) devoted to natural , organic , local and sustainable produce—americans and legal protections have quickly evolved to begin averting the worst problems of industrial agriculture . so though the journey to a healthy sustainable terrestrial food system is far from over , it is well underway .

seafood , however , is more slippery . “that’s because it’s the ‘last of the buffalo hunters , ” when it comes to seafood says joe lasprogata , vice president of samuels and son seafood co . “the oceans are in some ways the last source of truly wild products , and we need to be careful with those . ” samuels and son sponsors sustained seas , an organization dedicated to promoting sustainable fisheries via labeling and education . part of the reason fisheries are in trouble is that consumers didn’t know the impacts of their choices .

lasprogata says , “for way too long there’s been this surprising attitude : fishermen believed that fisheries belonged to them , and that has led to collapse , over and over again . there was no care , no stewardship . but fisheries can absolutely be sustainable . ” that confusion has continued to spill over into consumer behavior , since some people still make fish - buying decisions based on taste , price , and texture—rather than perceived sustainability , according to a recent study on british columbian consumer habits .

but it’s extremely important to think about where the fish comes from , because those factors affect not only your health , but also the future of wild fish stocks , which we and countless other species depended on for our survival . “there are lots of ways to identify a so - called “dirty dozen” of fish , and it’s crucial to be aware of overfishing , pollution , and bycatch , ” says marianne cufone .

cufone is the executive director of recirculating farms coalition , an organization dedicated to creating local land - based produce and fish systems using hydro - and aquaponics , small local systems that avoid the problems of open - water fish farms and industrial agriculture altogether , where the fish waste fertilizes fresh produce . the former director of the fish program of food and water watch , cufone’s mission is redirecting consumers toward healthy , sustainable fish - eating . she laughs , saying , “i get a lot of texts from my friends asking me which fish are okay to eat . ”

cufone stresses that consumers can begin with a list of the 12 worst fish , or a “fishy dozen”—compiled with help from experts .

( like what you ' re reading ? sign up for our newsletter to get health insights , clever kitchen tricks , gardening secrets , and more—delivered straight to your inbox . )

among the recommendations for shark alternatives are pacific halibut and atlantic mackerel . ( and when shopping for scallops , avoid cookie - cutter perfect ones . )

“cod on the list breaks my heart , ” she says . “because it’s a new england staple and we all love to support our fisherman . but cod had the worst season in 2016 in years , with serious catch depletion . ” atlantic cod stocks collapsed in the mid - 1990s and are in such disarray that the species is now listed as one step above endangered on the international union for conservation of nature ' s red list of threatened species .

the good news , if you love fish ' n ' chips ( which is nearly always made with cod ) , is that pacific cod stocks are still strong and are one of food and water watch ' s best fish picks .

according to cufone , tuna is bad news all around . “we are eating it to death , ” she says . atlantic and pacific bluefin , albacore , yellowfin…they are all to be avoided . canned tuna is one of the most consumed fish in the u . s . , and that’s depleting the fisheries . ( here are 4 canned fish you should avoid at all costs . )

for your tuna salad , substitute tinned sardines ( they’re seafood watch recommended , and are one of the healthiest fish you can eat ) or even organic tinned chicken , such as wild planet organic roasted chicken breast .

caviar from beluga and wild - caught sturgeon are susceptible to overfishing , but the species are also being threatened by an increase in dam building that pollutes the water in which they live . all forms of caviar come from fish that take a long time to mature , which means that it takes a while for populations to rebound—any wild caviar is to be avoided , says cufone .

this popular fish from the gulf of mexico is just starting to recover from overfishing . “i worry about it a lot , ” says cufone . “even though it’s not recovered , the federal government agreed to reopen recreational red snapper fishing recently . these fish have long been on the trouble list . ”

these fish are very popular and considered a delicacy , but you can get the same texture and feel with u . s . hook - and - line–caught haddock .

orange roughy has been so overfished that many restaurant chains still refuse to serve it . further , it tends to be high in mercury levels . it is a long lived fish , that takes ten to twenty years to reach maturity—which means populations take a long time to recover , and fish tend to accumulate toxins like mercury of lengthy time periods . even if you see orange roughy for sale , or labeled as “sustainably harvested” avoid it . the marine stewardship council does not certify it , and its fisheries are not considered it well managed .

eel remains problematic too . most consumers see it in sushi , but it is often high in pcbs and mercury , and eel populations are too often overharvested . it is also sold as yellow or silver eel .

if you like the taste of eel , opt for atlantic - or pacific - caught squid instead .

the thing about imported king crab is that it comes mainly from russia where there are no protections and the fishery is being overharvested . if you know for sure that your crab is actually from alaska , says cufone “you’re okay . ” that’s because these crabs are actually two different critters . true alaskan king crab from alaska , is a protected us fishery that’s well managed , and stocks are healthy . but the “imported alaskan king crab” is not actually alaskan , it’s the unprotected crab from russia .

when you shop for king crab , whatever the label says , ask whether it comes from alaska or if it ' s imported . approximately 70 percent of the king crab sold in the u . s . is imported , so it ' s important to make that distinction and go domestic .

open water , farmed atlantic salmon fisheries contribute to pollution and interspecies mixing . “if you can find terrestrially farmed atlantic salmon , that’s typically better farming management , ” says cufone . farmed salmon is also where you’re most likely to encounter genetically engineered salmon . ( here’s how to choose the best salmon at the grocery store )

wild caught pacific salmon generally have less of the problems than atlantic . and wild caught salmon from alaska is even better , since those populations are the most robust . when it comes to flavor , wild salmon is where it’s at . as one of the healthiest fish you can eat , it ' s higher in omega - 3 fatty acids ( which can help fight seasonal allergies , among many other things ) and also packs less saturated fat than farmed . it’s also a sustainable seafood : the alaskan salmon fishery—america’s main source of wild salmon—is managed to ensure the plentiful return of wild fish in the future . varieties to look out for are king , sockeye , pink , keta and coho salmon .

basically , they’re extremely smart . “this is an ethics case that i’d put in the same category as eating dolphins and whales , ” says cufone . “it’s become increasingly hard to talk about eating octopus because we’ve learned so much about their intelligence and abilities . ”

the list will change because we’ve entered an era where fisheries information is fluid . what might be the worst thing to eat now because of severe depletion could rebound and be a sustainable fishery a few years down the road with proper management . to know if your choices are healthy—for themselves and the fishery itself—it’s useful to know where to go to get that information when you’re standing in front of the fish counter .

blue ocean’s “fish phone” app — carl safina is the founder of the blue ocean institute and safina center , and author of many important books on the oceans and animals . his organization wanted to make it easy for consumers to decide which fish to eat . all you need to do is text the word fish followed by the species you want to know about , to 30644 ( so , for instance , fish shrimp , or fish bluefin ) . in less than 10 seconds you’ll have valuable info in the palm of your hand about the fish in question .

the marine stewardship council — “an international non - profit organization established to address the problem of unsustainable fishing and safeguard seafood supplies for the future . the msc uses a blue label and fishery certification program to contribute to the health of the world’s oceans . ”
