Biological Systems in Vertebrates: Functional Morphology of ...
A fish with a physostomous swim bladder used in gas exchange has to make
regular sojourns to the surface to fill the bladder/lung. Energetically, this is a
costly process. ln teleosts, the swim bladder is mainly hydrostatic. The organ is ...

Introduction to the Biology of Marine Life
Physostomous sive muscle and skeletal tissue, have body densities about 5%
greater than that of seawater. To achieve neutral buoyancy, many of these fishes
have an internal swim bladder filled with gases (mostly N, and O2, the most ...

Evolutionary Innovations
Physostomous fishes have open swim bladders and inflate or deflate their
bladders through a pneumatic duct (fig. 4) by surfacing. Clearly the deeper its
niche the greater the physical stress for a fish to regulate its buoyant volume in
this way.

Fundamentals of Ornamental Fish Health
Since it evolved from a lung, the most primitive condition is where a direct
connection, the pneumatic duct, exists between the swim bladder and the
esophagus, and is termed physostomous. In the phylogenetic hierarchy of the
bony fishes, ...

Vertebrates: Structures and Functions
In fish species that retain the ancestral physostomous bladder (Gr. physa,
bladder; stoma, mouth), a pneumatic duct connects the caudal end of the
esophagus to the swim bladder. Physostomous fish include carp, trout, salmon
and esocids.

For example, the holostean fish Amia has a physostomous swimbladder that is
used in respiration: it arises dorsally from the gut, but receives its blood supply
from the most posterior gill arches (Goodrich, 1930). The similar swimbladder in
the ...
Charlotte B. Nilsson, 1994
In physostomous fish, the digestive system and gas bladder are connected by a
pneumatic duct that can be used for inflation and deflation (in larvae through
adults). The time of initial gas bladder filling can be delayed in some
physostomous ...
Structure of Physostomous Bladder In many teleosts and Acipenser a typical
physostomous air bladder with a dorsal opening is present. In Erythrinus the air
bladder consists of a small anterior chamber and a long posterior chamber. This
is an ...

Air-Breathing Fishes: Evolution, Diversity, and Adaptation
Some fish inhale air to regulate the volume of a physostomous gas bladder (i.e.,
connected to the esophagus, see Chapter 2) and thus serve its functions in both
buoyancy and sound reception. But, as has been demonstrated empirically, most
...
