Abstract
A new genus and species (Singida jacksonoides) and a new family (Singididae) of osteoglossoid fishes are described from the lacustrine deposits in Tanzania which have already yielded the primitive clupeomorph Palaeodenticeps. Singida differs from all Osteoglossomorpha in being toothless. Although it shows some affinity with the living Asiatic genus Scleropages, it also exhibits certain characters, particularly in the caudal skeleton, which are usually associated with the recent and fossil Hiodontoidei of North America. Singida shows little affinity with either of the living African genera of Osteoglossoidei. The age of the Singida deposits is unknown, but the fish fauna suggests a Palaeogene (? Oligocene) age.

Singida differs from all Osteoglossomorpha in being toothless. Although it shows some affinity with the living Asiatic genus Scleropages, it also exhibits certain characters, particularly in the caudal skeleton, which are usually associated with the recent and fossil Hiodontoidei of North America. Singida shows little affinity with either of the living African genera of Osteoglossoidei. The age of the Singida deposits is unknown, but the fish fauna suggests a Palaeogene (? Oligocene) age.</abstract><relatedItem type="host"><titleInfo><title>Journal of the Linnean Society of London, Zoology</title></titleInfo><genre type="journal" authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/JMC-0GLKJH51-B">journal</genre><identifier type="ISSN">0368-2935</identifier><identifier type="eISSN">1096-3642</identifier><identifier type="DOI">10.1111/(ISSN)1096-3642a</identifier><identifier type="PublisherID">ZOJ</identifier><part><date>1967</date><detail type="volume"><caption>vol.</caption><number>47</number></detail><detail type="issue"><caption>no.</caption><number>311</number></detail><extent unit="pages"><start>211</start><end>223</end><total>13</total></extent></part></relatedItem><identifier type="istex">283CB642BC26AEA6C4AEFFC79754B667942E04F1</identifier><identifier type="ark">ark:/67375/WNG-XVGVD49L-9</identifier><identifier type="DOI">10.1111/j.1096-3642.1967.tb01404.x</identifier><identifier type="ArticleID">ZOJ211</identifier><recordInfo><recordContentSource authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/XBH-L0C46X92-X">wiley</recordContentSource><recordOrigin>Blackwell Publishing Ltd</recordOrigin></recordInfo></mods><json:item><extension>json</extension><original>false</original><mimetype>application/json</mimetype><uri>https://api.istex.fr/document/283CB642BC26AEA6C4AEFFC79754B667942E04F1/metadata/json</uri></json:item></metadata><serie></serie></istex></record>Pour manipuler ce document sous Unix (Dilib)
