Hydrological Connectivity Enhances Fish Biodiversity in Amazonian Mining Ponds: Insights From eDNA and Traditional Sampling

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 11, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) expansion in the Madre de Dios region of the Peruvian Amazon has transformed primary forests into a novel wetland complex of thousands of abandoned mining ponds. Despite their ecological relevance, post‐mining recovery of these systems remains understudied, particularly regarding fish biodiversity ...

Unveiling the Evolutionary History of cis‐Andean Alouatta (Atelidae, Alouattinae) Through Mitochondrial Genomes

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 5, May 2025.
Mitochondrial DNA analysis suggests that founder‐event speciation played a key role in the divergence between cis‐Andean and trans‐Andean clades, as well as in the diversification of cis‐Andean lineages. Ancestral range reconstruction using mitochondrial genomes indicates that the most recent common ancestor of Alouatta had a widespread distribution ...
