Study of morphological variation of northern Neotropical Ariidae reveals conservatism despite macrohabitat transitions [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018 Background Morphological convergence triggered by trophic adaptations is a common pattern in adaptive radiations. The study of shape variation in an evolutionary context is usually restricted to well-studied fish models. We take advantage of the recently

Records of malformed sea catfishes (Ariopsis seemanni and Ariopsis guatemalensis) (Actinopterygii: Siluriformes: Ariidae) off San Blas (Mexican Pacific) [PDF]
Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2023 Fish malformations can be an important hint for assessing the well-being of their populations and the quality of their habitats. Malformations have been observed in species of the order Siluriformes, including the family Ariidae. In this study, we report
