Assessing fish diversity in abandoned mining ponds in Madre de Dios, Peru, using environmental DNA

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–February 2024.
We surveyed four lentic systems in Madre de Dios, Peru: two abandoned mining ponds created by ASGM and two unmined oxbow lakes as a reference to assess fish recolonization. We compared two alternative eDNA processing methods and contrasted our results with historic data from traditional biodiversity monitoring. Our results indicate that eDNA could be a

Trends in Karyotype Evolution in Astyanax (Teleostei, Characiformes, Characidae): Insights From Molecular Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
The study of patterns and evolutionary processes in neotropical fish is not always an easy task due the wide distribution of major fish groups in large and extensive river basins. Thus, it is not always possible to detect or correlate possible effects of

Trophic plasticity of omnivorous fishes in natural and human‐dominated landscapes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 1, Page 189-202, January 2024.
Abstract The persistence of diverse communities and functioning ecosystems under increasing anthropogenic pressure relies on food web rewiring and the ability of animals to expand or change their diet in disturbed ecosystems. We combined a suite of diet tracing techniques to study trophic plasticity in omnivorous fishes, ecomorphologically similar ...

Freshwater fish as hosts for parasites in Australia: How much do we really know?

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 33, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Australia has a highly endemic freshwater fish fauna, but basic biological knowledge for most is lacking. This includes an understanding, and description, of their parasite fauna. Additionally, the impacts of introduced fish species, and their parasites which have transferred across to native species, are also mostly unknown.
