FEEDING HABITS AND REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF ASTYANAX ABRAMIS/HÁBITO ALIMENTAR E BIOLOGIA REPRODUTIVA DE ASTYANAX ABRAMIS [PDF]
The species of the genus Astyanax, popularly known as ‘lambaris’, are important ecologically since they can be used as environmental bioindicators. However, knowledge about the feeding habit and reproduction of species of this genus is scarce. Therefore,

Ecological Factors and Diversification among Neotropical Characiforms [PDF]
Morphological and DNA sequence data has been used to propose hypotheses of relationships within the Characiformes with minimal comparative discussion of causes underpinning the major intraordinal diversification patterns. We explore potential primary morphological factors controlling the early diversification process in some Neotropical characiforms as

Current ecological understanding of fungal-like pathogens of fish: what lies beneath? [PDF]
Despite increasingly sophisticated microbiological techniques, and long after the first discovery of microbes, basic knowledge is still lacking to fully appreciate the ecological importance of microbial parasites in fish. This is likely due to the nature

Fish from urban tributaries to the Vermelho River, upper Paraguay River Basin, Mato Grosso, Brazil [PDF]
The fish fauna of urban streams is still poorly known, it difficult to assess the effects of urbanization expansion on fish species composition, for this reason the aim of this study was to provide a checklist of species that compose the ichthyofauna of ...

Comparative cytogenetics of Astyanax (Teleostei: Characidae) from the upper Paraguay basin
Astyanax is one of the most abundant and diverse taxa of fishes in the Neotropical region. In order to increase the amount of cytogenetic information for Astyanax as well as to exhibit data to subsidize future taxonomic studies, this work analyzed three ...
