New insights into the putative XX/XY sex chromosomal system in blue‐eyed red‐fin pleco Hypostomus soniae (Siluriformes, Loricariidae)

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 1, Page 92-102, January 2026.
Abstract Blue‐eyed red‐fin pleco Hypostomus soniae (family Loricariidae) presented a putative sex system XX/XY in early stage. Aiming to explore the inter‐populational karyotypic variation and proposed emergence of the XX/XY system, we studied 13 H. soniae individuals (6 males, 7 females) from the Tapajós River.

First Records of Length–Weight Relationships for Ten Fish Species From the Middle Stretch of the Uruguay River, Southern Brazil

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study estimated the length–weight relationships (LWRs) of 10 fish species from the middle stretch of the Middle Uruguay River basin, aiming to provide new morphometric data and contribute to the knowledge of Neotropical ichthyofauna. Fish were collected at seven sites with sampling conducted at each site during every season, totaling 84 sampling ...

Karyotypic diversity in a population of Bryconamericus aff. iheringii (Characidae)

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2014
Bryconamericus comprises 56 species distributed into three groups, on the basis of the position and shape of the maxillary teeth: B. exodon, B. microcephalus and B. iheringii groups. Few cytogenetic data are available for this genus, but the diploid number of 52 chromosomes is quite common, although the karyotypic variability is extensive.

Taxonomic revision of Galeocharax (Characiformes: Characidae: Characinae) [PDF]

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2017
ABSTRACT The taxonomy of Galeocharax, a genus of freshwater fishes distributed in most South American cis-Andean river systems, except the rio Negro, rio São Francisco and rio Xingu basins and the eastern drainages of Brazil, is herein revised. A total of 1229 specimens were examined from which 680 had meristic and morphometric data taken. Osteological

Evolution of the secondary sexual characters in Characidae (Teleostei: Characiformes)

, 2018
Dentre todas as famílias de Characiformes, Characidae, com 1209 espécies válidas é, sem dúvida, a mais problemática, com suas relações intra e inerfamiliares em Characiformes ainda pouco definidas. Isto se deve à imensa diversidade e variação morfológica

A new miniature characid (Ostariophysi: Characiformes: Characidae), with phylogenetic position inferred from morphological and molecular data. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Erythrocharax altipinnis is described from the Serra do Cachimbo, Pará, Brazil. The new taxon is distinguished from all of the Characidae genera by having the pelvic bones firmly attached through the isquiatic processes; a nearly triangular hiatus in the

Local Environmental Variables Predict Fish Species Richness and Composition in Sand Beaches of a Neotropical River

River Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 1949-1958, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Local and regional species diversity is influenced by historical factors, resource availability, biotic interactions, the presence of resources, and adequate environmental conditions. We evaluated the effects of local environmental variables and spatial structure on fish species richness and composition along sandy beaches of a Neotropical ...
