Abstract

An overview of "scorpaeniform" fish phylogenetic studies is presented. Imamura and Shinohara (1998) reviewed previous phylogenetic studies of the "Scorpaeniformes" and stated that monophyly was unlikely. Since 1998, 4 papers (1 morphological and 3 molecular) have been published, which independently show the polyphyletic origins of this group. The present paper provides an outline of Imamura and Shinohara's (1998) paper, and gives summaries of the 4 subsequent papers. Evidence for polyphyly presented in the 4 papers is discussed. Suggestions for future areas of "scorpaeniform" taxonomic and evolutionary research are presented.
