Morphological and molecular evidence reveals a new species of Characidium from the Ucayali‐Urubamba Piedmont, Peru, and novel molecular clades are proposed within the genus

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new species of Characidium is described from the Urubamba River basin, within the Ucayali‐Urubamba Piedmont ecoregion, Peru. The new species can be readily distinguished from all congeners, except Characidium cacah, Characidium chicoi, Characidium helmeri, Characidium mirim, Characidium nana, Characidium nupelia, Characidium sterbai ...

On the occurrence of the snakefish Trachinocephalus myops (Aulopiformes: Synodontidae) in the Azores archipelago

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The snakefish Trachinocephalus myops is an Atlantic species distributed in tropical and temperate coastal waters on sandy substrates. This study reports the validated record of an adult T. myops in the Azores archipelago caught by a fisherman at Faial Island.

Return migration to fresh water and overwintering locations used by sympatric anadromous populations of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma malma)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anadromous Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and northern form Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma malma) are highly valued by Indigenous communities in northern Canada. Rapid, ongoing environmental changes are affecting populations of both of these iteroparous species, and understanding variability in life‐history tactics is essential for ...

A new South American darter (Crenuchidae: Characidium) from rivers draining the Northeastern Mata Atlantica Freshwater Ecoregion, Brazil: morphological and molecular evidence

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Characidium tupi, a new species from rivers draining the southern portion of the Northeastern Mata Atlantica Freshwater Ecoregion, is described. The new species can be distinguished from all congeners by its colour pattern, including 7–14 dark bars enlarged and more conspicuous on their ventralmost portion, resulting in a longitudinal series ...

Integrative taxonomy reveals four new species of the armoured catfish genus Pareiorhina (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the upper Paraná River basin, Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Four new species of the small‐sized armoured catfish genus Pareiorhina are described from mountain ranges in the Grande River drainage, upper Paraná River basin, based on morphological and molecular species delimitation methods. Molecular analyses based on the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) marker recovered Pareiorhina as polyphyletic ...
