Abstract

© 2014 The Trustees of the Natural History Museum, London 2014. All Rights Reserved. Camerichthys lunae gen. et sp. nov. is a semionotiform actinopterygian fish described from the newly reported locality of San Andrés de San Pedro (province of Soria, Spain). The material, an articulated, partial three-dimensional specimen, was unearthed from the Tithonian-Berriasian beds of the Matute Formation (Tera Group) in the continental Cameros Basin. The new taxon, Camerichthys lunae gen. et sp. nov., differs from other ginglymodians in presenting a unique combination of characters plus: presence of a suprapreopercular bone; antorbital intermediate in depth in relation to the other anterior infraorbitals; and infraorbital placed in the anterior border of the orbit subdivided into two portions (three uniquely derived characters). The results of the cladistic analysis show that the new genus from Soria cannot be assigned to any of the three semionotiform families, Callipurbeckiidae, Macrosemiidae or Semionotidae. It is considered Semionotiformes incertae sedis. In the more resolutive analysis, with ordered characters, Camerichthys lunae gen. et sp. nov. appears as the sister group of the clade formed by the families Callipurbeckiidae plus Macrosemiidae. The effects of the new genus on the phylogeny of these two families and Dapedium, Semionotus and Paralepidotus, are discussed. Camerichthys gen. nov. is the first ginglymodian genus endemic to the Iberian Peninsula. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:BBD15A41-5BFC-4BFF-AD40-ECD1891953F1.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2026-04-05:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 27.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 27 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 13.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 16 (Altmetric).
  • The number of mentions on Wikipedia: 1 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:
