Manual of recommended practices for modelling physical – biological interactions during fish early life (2009, background): “The vast diversity of teleost fish species – approximately 27 000 species in 448 families divided among 40 orders (Nelson, 2006) – means that some species are very distantly related, with evolutionary histories that have been separate for tens of millions of years.”
Teleost fish with specific genome duplication as unique models of vertebrate evolution (2010, background): “However, the actinopterygians, which are composed mostly of teleosts (about 27 000 species), do not appear to be more species-rich than their sister group, the sarcopterygians (about 27 000 species including tetrapods; Nelson 2006).”
A continuum of life histories in deep-sea demersal fishes (2012, methodology): “The basic phylogenetic relationships between the species was used following (Nelson, 2006) by constructing a rooted tree in the program Mesquite.”
Otolith atlas for the western Mediterranean, north and central eastern Atlantic (2008, methodology): “The classification system used was based on Nelson (2006) and the species were named following the criteria of the online fish catalogue of the California Academy of Science (Eschmeyer et al., 1998).”
Ecology of Anguilliform Leptocephali: Remarkable Transparent Fish Larvae of the Ocean Surface Layer (2009, background): “Despite their global distribution and the existence of more than 800 species of eels (Nelson 2006), little is known about the life histories of most species or the ecology of their leptocephali (Böhlke 1989a,b; Smith 1989a; Miller and Tsukamoto 2004).”
Multiple Male Reproductive Morphs in the Invasive Round Goby (Apollonia melanostoma) (2009, background): “…fish studies have confirmed that parental males will have higher levels of 11-KT (Oliveira, 2006), to our knowledge this is the first demonstration of this pattern in Gobiidae, one of the most speciose of teleost fish families (at least 1875 species, in more than 200 genera; Nelson, 2006).”
Conservation status of imperiled north American freshwater and diadromous fishes (2008, unknown): “Among vertebrates, fishes have the most dynamic taxonomy (Duncan and Lockwood 2001), and Nelson (2006) concluded that the annual net increase in newly described species of fishes exceeds the combined number of new tetrapods.”
Checklist of Copepoda associated with fishes from Brazil (2007, unknown): “Higher-level classification of fishes follows Nelson (2006).”
