Ontogeny of the Skeleton of Leporinus oliveirai (Characiformes, Anotomidae). [PDF]
In this study, we provide the first complete description of the skeleton ontogeny of an anostomid. The developmental sequence of 141 bony elements is described and illustrated. The main discoveries are numerous conical teeth on the premaxilla and dentary that are replaced with three or four large incisiform multicuspid teeth, that become unicuspid in ...

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Hyphessobrycon herbertaxelrodi (Characiformes, Characidae) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Hyphessobrycon herbertaxelrodi is presented, and we also discussed its mitochondrial characteristics. The full length of the mitochondrial genome was 17,417 bp, including 13 protein coding genes (PCGs),

An Insight into the Chromosomal Evolution of Lebiasinidae (Teleostei, Characiformes) [PDF]
Lebiasinidae fishes have been historically neglected by cytogenetical studies. Here we present a genomic comparison in eleven Lebiasinidae species, in addition to a review of the ribosomal DNA sequences distribution in this family.

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.

The overlooked first intercostal ligament: Does it help to stabilize the Weberian apparatus? [PDF]
3D rending of adult zebrafish Weberian apparatus in association with the occiput, swim bladder, and rib‐bearing vertebrae, with highlighted interossicular, suspensor, and intercostal ligaments. Abstract The Weberian apparatus is a novel hearing adaptation that facilitates increased hearing sensitivity in otophysan fishes.
