@article{Prokofiev2007OsteologyAS, title={Osteology and some other morphological characters of Howella sherborni, with a discussion of the systematic position of the genus (Perciformes, Percoidei)}, author={Art{\'e}m M. Prokofiev}, journal={Journal of Ichthyology}, year={2007}, volume={47}, pages={413-426} }
First the description of osteology and some morphological characters of the oceanic percoid, Howella sherborni, is given. Specific traits of Howella include features of the skullcap, bulla otica, and periocular bones, specific spiking of opercular bones, denticular contact of cerato-and epihyale from both sides, the presence of three rays on epihyale, and limited dental plates on basoibranchialia 2–3 and on lower pharyngeal bones; the presence of one strong spike on posttemporale, 1½ radialia…

Prolonged morphological expansion of spiny-rayed fishes following the end-Cretaceous
- Environmental Science, BiologybioRxiv

The results indicate that several million years after the end-Cretaceous, acanthomorphs underwent a prolonged and significant expansion of morphological disparity primarily driven by changes in body elongation, and that acanthomorphic lineages containing the bulk of the living species diversity originated throughout the Cenozoic.
