Oxygen consumption from air and water, ammonia and urea-N excretion, and Na<sup>+</sup> fluxes during progressive aquatic hypoxia in Amazonian armoured catfish Pterygoplichthys gibbiceps and Pterygoplichthys pardalis. [PDF]
Abstract The Amazonian loricariid fish Pterygoplichthys gibbiceps, from the Rio Negro, and Pterygoplichthys pardalis, from the Rio Solimões, are facultative air‐breathers that can use the stomach as an air‐breathing organ. Measurement of oxygen uptake under progressive aquatic hypoxia revealed a relatively high hypoxia resistance of both species.

VALORES HEMATOLÓGICOS DEL PAICHE Arapaima gigas DE LA AMAZONÍA PERUANA
Haematological values of paiche, Arapaima gigas, were determined in 120 blood samples collected from May 2009 to January 2011. The fishes were cultivated in two fish farms located in the province of Maynas, Loreto, Peru. Blood samples were classified according to four age groups: 10-30, 31-180, 181-365 and >365 days.

Chromosomal characterization of the bonytongue Arapaima gigas (Osteoglossiformes: Arapaimidae) [PDF]
The mitotic chromosomes of the pirarucu Arapaima gigas inhabiting the middle Araguaia River and collected in the municipality of Araguaiana (MT, Brazil) were studied. The chromosomes were analyzed through Giemsa staining, C-banding, Ag-NOR staining and in situ hybridization using an 18S rRNA gene probe. The karyotype had 2n=56 comprising 14 biarmed and
