Ossification of the cranium of Inpaichthys kerri (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae) with discussion of paedomorphic traits in the genus. [PDF]
In this study, we present a detailed description of the cranial development of Inpaichthys kerri (Characiformes: Acestrorhamphidae), highlighting important topics such as pedomorphic characters and their relationship with ontogeny and phylogeny, as well as ossification sequences unique to the species. Abstract The study of development provides valuable

Specialized specialists and the narrow niche fallacy: a tale of scale-feeding fishes [PDF]
Although rare within the context of 30 000 species of extant fishes, scale-feeding as an ecological strategy has evolved repeatedly across the teleost tree of life.

Ontogeny of the Skeleton of Leporinus oliveirai (Characiformes, Anotomidae). [PDF]
ABSTRACT The skeleton is a rich source of characters used in phylogenetic studies of teleost fishes. However, the development of bones was studied in a limited number of species and few studies have been published describing the ontogeny of the Characiformes skeleton.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Hemigrammus bleheri (Characiformes: Hemigrammus) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
Complete mitochondrial genome of the characiform fish Hemigrammus bleheri was characterized in the present study. The whole mitogenome was 17,021 bp in size and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs genes, a control region, and origin of light-strand replication.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Paracheirodon axelrodi (Characiformes: Characidae) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
The Paracheirodon axelrodi is an important freshwater fish in the Amazon basin of South America, more expensive than Paracheirodon innesi. Here, we describe the complete 17,100 base pair (bp) mitochondrial genome of Paracheirodon axelrodi mohavensis. The mitogenome has a nucleotide base composition of A (29.62%), T (29.41%), G (15.39%), and C (25.62%),

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. With that, we develop ten sets of experiments in order to hybridize the genomic DNA of representative species from the ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Gephyrocharax atracaudatus (Characiformes, Characidae) and phylogenetic studies of Characiformes [PDF]
Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Gephyrocharax atracaudatus. The genome is found to be 17,049 bp in length and has a base composition of A (29.95%), G (15.29%), C (26.13%) and T (28.63%). Similar to other Gephyrocharax species, it contains a typically conserved structure including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 1 ...
